Ha ha! I've just remembered a truly embarrasing drunken episode on the tube. About five years ago I was with C., and we were travelling back to East Finchley, and I thought it would be funny to pretend to be deaf, complete with noises and pretend sign language. In front of a full train. Hilarious! What could she do? Well, she joined in, and we did it all the way home until we had to get off, whereupon I started speaking normally, in front of everybody. I thought it was funny until I woke up the next morning, and then I was almost paralysed with embarrasment and mortification. Luckily, I think I managed to draw a line under something after that one.
Jesus, it still makes me cringe. As long as I have knowledge of that incident, I will never be able to love myself.

It's only wrong if there were real deafs on the train too. And they couldn't hear you when you started talking, so you would've probably got away with it even if there were real deafs on the train.

I think that everybody in the world would have been able to suss out that it was fake. I have no knowledge whatsoever of this language. Jesus Christ.

I imagine you looked more like a mildly retarded Ali G silently saying "realize!" whilst making complicated hand gestures.
Not that deaf people are retarded... ...apart from their hearing anyway.

I called photo girl and asked to see her portfolio without a single strain of smut in my voice. After a brief bumbling Hugh Grant style stutter solo that would put Morris Minor to shame, she told me she would call me to let me know when she is free.
I may ask Zara to pretend I am not in when she calls and bark excuses from behind the safety of the sofa.
