Skeptopia

A while back I created a little wedding video and posted it on YouTube.

I had been disappointed at the lack of angry or confused Xians telling me I was immoral or whatever, and now I’ve finally got one! He’s posted twice, even! And he uses bad logic and false facts to support his ridiculous conclusions! He seriously made my morning.

Of course, I didn’t make the video to upset anyone and I’m grateful to the people who have been supportive with their comments, which are lovely. But I’m glad to have stirred someone up enough to say something completely ignorant and narrow-minded. I hope some other commenter (preferrably a fellow Xian) will put him in his place about what a ‘tard he is.

I especially like the bit about it being ‘naturally impossible to produce offspring from such a union.’ Ha, ha! Have I got news for him!

I would like to note that I only realised after the test that the sound was not coming out of the computer speakers, but the earbuds sitting on the desk that I had neglected to unplug. I could hear the noise coming from the tiny earbuds, not the actual computer speakers. My hearing is freakishly acute.

Edit: Test #2, earbuds unplugged: sound clearly audible. Feels like a bug is burrowing into my brain. Afterward, I click on a YouTube clip and realise my computer’s volume is on the lowest setting. I raise the volume and decide to try again.

Test #3, volume at 50%: The sound is like a dentist’s drill. It makes my eyes sting and I have to click away almost instantly to keep from getting a pounding headache.

Conclusion: High frequency noises are a horrible torture for me. You know those high frequency thingies people have to keep mosquitos and other pests away? I can hear those. You know that high pitched noise that televisions and monitors give off? I can hear that too. I am a freak. If I enter a business using one of these torture devices I will noisily complain that they are driving away perfectly good customers such as myself, who happen to have better than average hearing for their age.
