I'm related to someone who's the same way with closed captions. Yes, I know you can understand every word. Yes, I can see how it makes you enjoy a show even more because you catch all of the little things. No, I don't want to turn it on this time when you're visiting.

If you're actually hearing impaired I'll probably tolerate it for you. Though realistically we just won't watch anything together.

Otherwise I hate you for asking. Nothing makes a show/movie unwatchable more than having the text of what a character is going to say shoved in my face before they say it. I'd rather get kicked in the balls repeatedly than watch shit with subtitles. It's less severe torture.

Jeez are captions that bad for you? You can't like, tune them out?

Absolutely.

They're exactly the same as the audio being out of sync. It literally makes me want to puke.

We've upset the great captioned mind! Run for it Marty!
