Join LaRonda as she shares a Deaf joke about Lipstick in the girls’ dorm at a deaf school.
Transcript:
One day, a houseparent/ deaf school Dorm Supervisor went to her Dean with a complaint.
“I have several girls in my dorm who have recently started using make up and lipstick. But instead of blotting off their lipstick on toilet paper, they are leaving lipstick marks on the bathroom mirrors! It’s hard to wash the lipstick off! I’ve struggled to remove the lipstick marks, but I can’t seem to find a way to get them off the mirrors! None of the girls will admit they left the lipstick marks, so I end up having to wash the mirrors myself! This is not OK! What should I do? I need your help.”
The Dean thought for a moment and then she came up with a cleaver idea. Then, she shared her thoughts with the Dorm Supervisor who enthusiastically agreed.
“Yes! Yes! That is a champ idea!”
So, the Dean and the Dorm Supervisor went to the girls dorm and called a meeting with several of the girls; not all, just the leaders, some of whom they suspected might be involved with leaving lipstick marks on the mirrors, but they did not point fingers at anyone in particular.
The meeting was to be held in the bathroom. The girls were quite curious about having a meeting in the bathroom, so they eagerly attended to see what was up. When they arrived, they saw the Dean and the Dorm Supervisor there.
The Dean said, “Ladies, first I want to than you for coming to share a few moments of your time with me. However, I notice we have a little bit of a problem. Apparently there have been some girls leaving lipstick marks on the bathroom mirrors. You know that today, lipstick is made to stay on the lips. It’s really strong and doesn’t wash off easy. Your poor Dorm Supervisor has been struggling to wash off the lipstick marks from the mirrors, but it has been hard. She has not been able to find a way to get these marks off. But the two of us recently talked with the school janitor, and the janitor gave us a great idea to finally removed the lipstick marks. Your Dorm Supervisor will show you now.”
The girls watched as the Dorm Supervisor found herself a squeegee. Then she walked over to one of the toilets, lifted the lid, and plunged the squeegee down into the toilet water to get it nice and wet. Then she walked with the squeegee over to one of the mirrors and began washing and wiping it down. Amazingly, the lipstick came right off!
The girls eye opened wide in shock! They looked back and forth at each other while the cat got their tongue! No one mentioned a word, but their faces said it all!
The Dean said, “Now that you know we have found the best way to remove the lipstick marks from the mirrors, please go and tell others. Spread the word to the other girls. Now you all know that the best way to blot your lipstick from your lips is to use toilet paper.”
Before they left, the Dean looked at them sternly and nodded to make sure all the girls clearly understood the message.
Bye (ILY wave)
PS: I need to clear up my sign for mirror. Looks like I’m signing tree. Oooops! Sorry. 
Far out! No one wanted to do it again after they know that the squeegee is used in the toliet! =D

What a story! What a way to improvise to get the attention of the dorm girls..That would have gotten my attention or anybody’s for that matter..Because our tummies would feel squeamish only if we knew…or the dorm girls knew..Now they know, it’s a good joke!

I am still pretty new to signing. I tried to watch the vidoe first and read the transcript later. I only understood a few parts. One was that the girls were kissing a tree. Then I read transcript and was very dissapointed in myself- no tree. Thanks so much for mentioning that it really was the tree sign! haha
Your joke was great and thanks so much for transcripts for those of us who are still learning!
