Amazing (and amazingly geeky) deaf interpretation

[Glitch Girl]

Tom Smith's I Had a Shoggoth (youtube link)

FYI: Tom Smith is and has been a filker for years, creating tons of comedy songs (including a fight song for Girl Genius which is pretty fun) 

This is one of his "kid's songs" which is packed full of geekiness.  This was his performance from 2008 with an interpreter for the hearing impaired named Judi Miller, who apparently did not know what she was getting into.

Hilarity ensues.

Enjoy!  And major props to Ms. Miller, wherever she may be.

Actually, she's okay, but not great and fails at the basic job of interpreting (she does only the song and doesn't interpret anything else said), and the song really wasn't that hard to interpret.  In fact, I suspect that she was given the words ahead of time, but even if she wasn't, it's a very simple, easy to interpret song even if it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever signed, which is really no different than it being spoken I suppose.

Yes, I know sign language.  I grew up around the deaf.

I'm actually not so harsh as I probably come across, it's just weird how people are reacting to it.
