A list of a London pub’s barred customers has gone viral, including a barred customer listed simply as ‘Adam the Deaf guy.’
The ridiculously un-PC list has been posted in full on The Poke, including other customers like ‘Staring Pervert,’ ‘One Armed Keith’ and ‘Fat Paul’ (and those are the less rude ones).
The list has been described by The Poke as ‘like reading the cast list for the most British gangster movie ever made.’
So what did Adam the Deaf Guy do to get barred? The mind boggles…

It was a hearing guy impersonating a deaf person by playing the deaf card and trying to get free drinks at the bar!

I had to smile at this story! A Deaf guy being barred on his own wouldn’t happen, the whole Deaf community would be barred!!! They never bar the whole hearing community when two of them have a row, though!! Never known any Deafies getting free drinks for being Deaf either!!!

Adam probably did much the same as the rest of them, picks fights or never pays his tab or gets so drunk the bar and staff are afraid they are going to be sued for something he does after leaving the pub.
Being deaf doesn’t mean he isn’t an asshole.
