Sign language interpretters would probably be great at spelling bees

      Why? Do you think signing is done by spelling out words?

              People that use a keyboard spell out each word they type. They still need spellcheckers.

            To be honest, spelling bees is incredibly easy. B-E-E-S, doesn’t matter what job you have, I mean kids can spell it.

                      I only see this comment since the parent was deleted, but… OP did write “interpretters” in the title, which is incorrect, which is kind of ironic in the context of the post’s topic

                  A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

                  Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

                  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
                  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
                  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

                  Rules

                  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
                  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
                  3. No politics
                    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
                    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
                  4. Posts must be original/unique
                  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

                  If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

                  Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
