The Magic Words
U/tugboattommy: I’ve examined the hearing of a few children who looked like they were deaf in one ear, ages ten to twelve. All you have to do is switch on your microphone, speak softly in the ‘deaf’ person’s ear, and pose a question concerning a subject that matters to them.
When you ask young boys, for instance, “what video games do you play?” at 20 dB, they ALWAYS fall for it. Always works.
