    Talking about any ear or hearing trouble and someone replies “pardon?”

    🤦🤬

      I do this, but I like to respond with a loud and sudden “WHAT” which is probably less funny and more obnoxious but it usually gets a laugh

      As someone who’s been hearing impaired my whole life, yes. The urge to punch the person in the face right at that moment sometimes seems irresistible.

        I’d like to believe I’d still have that reaction to this “joke” even if my hearing was fine, still I do agree with you that it’s really extra infuriating when explaining a genuine hearing issue
