I have betrayed all of you people. The people I've come to care for, the people I've befriended, the people who greatly appreciate my works and many more. I've betrayed all of you.
Today is a hard day for me. I made a difficult decision; I've decided that I have to make a confession. I have done a terrible, terrible thing. I've been pretending to be a deaf person for years and I've succeeded in fooling all of you into thinking I'm actually a deaf person.
I'm actually hearing. I can hear just fine. It just started out as a harmless joke but now I have became a part of the deaf blogosphere. It's a great honour, but I know I don't deserve to be part of it because it's all one big lie. I lied my way into this wonderful world.
I know many of you will feel outraged, betrayed and violated by what I just said. I hope all of you will find it in your hearts to forgive me for deceiving all of you into thinking I'm deaf.
Now, before some of you run off to blog about what a fraud I am. I want to ask all of you to do me a little favour before you chastise me for the ultimate betrayal I've committed.
Look at the date of this blog entry.
Do you realize what's so special about this particular date?
April's Fool Day.
Gotcha. ;)

ReplyDelete*Groan*
ReplyDeleteOh, man, you got me good! Fish swallow big time. :)
All I could think of as I read this was "Oh no, not another Holly Daniel fake deafie!"
Next year I'll pay attention to the freaking calendar LOL... anyway, great joke!
Shame on you...
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you did that.
That was just a horrible thing to joke about.
I'm not happy about this.
I mean, a hearing person really wanting to be a deaf person would have been a cool thing. It's often the other way around.
This is just outrage.
I've had it with the blogs/vlogs.
Jeeeez.
If you've read this far...*grins evilly at you* hahaha!!!
you know.. I used to imagine that I'm hearing and told them that I'm pretend to be deaf and they seem brought it and start to yak yak to me. "what? speak up!"
ReplyDeleteWow!! I heard about your terrible misfortune -- you became HEARING for one day on April 1... I'm so glad and thankful that you've been healed, and you're back to normal now!!! Welcome back to Deafness!!!
ReplyDeleteI was ready to pray for you, and to sprinkle you with Holy Water so you could be restored to perfect Deaf Health!!!
Happy April Fools
You got me! Gulp.
ReplyDeleteGood one, Banjo!
