Sign language can be fun. There's a great Adam Hills special with a sign interpreter where he says, 'there will be a lot of moments tonight where there will be a laugh as I deliver a punchline, and then there will be a second laugh a moment later as everyone sees the sign for clitoris.'

    Use an ad blocker (that auto denies and/or hides those notices).

    Is that possible in a mobile app?

    I have a memory of it being the tip of the middle finger circled in front of the crotch in a motion similar to clitoral masturbation, but there are also a whole pile of variants/dialects of sign.

    I saw John Stewart doing stand-up in Rochester back in the mid-00s. Rochester has a relatively huge deaf population because of the NTID, so the show had an interpreter but it also had closed captioning on some projection screens. Stewart spent ten minutes mumbling as fast as he could so he could comment on how well the transcriptionist was doing.

    It was very funny for the people who could hear him, but I imagine the deaf people were much less amused.

    The little pause before she does it really sells it.
