nonverbal, israelis being terrible

i made a sign that says "can hear, can't speak, i know a little sign language" with some symbols and stuff

but a LOT of people in israel just respond to it by saying "i don't know any sign language" and just walking away

just now at the bookstore, i showed the sign and the person behind the counter immediately yelled at me "i don't have any!!!" and i was like "???" so he repeated "don't have any!!!!!!" and i was terribly confused and showed the sign again

so he said "yeah! i know. i just don't know any sign language" then turned to look at his computer and ignore me completely

like...... dude............. i have a smartphone....... you're surrounded by papers and pens all around your desk.................... what the actual fuck?
