I'm looking for a few good jokes or phrases to be read using reader VoiceOver. (self.Blind)
submitted by ohmyimaginaryfriends
Tap...Tap...Is this thing on? Hi, so I am partaking in online dating and found a profile of a woman who is blind. I like her profile and plan on messaging her regardless of what happens with this post, but I was wondering if there are any jokes or phrases that are made funnier when read by a reader program that I could use as part of my opening. In her case on her profile she said it's a reader called VoiceOver if that makes a difference. Thank you in advance.

I mean, I could tell you how to make it talk so slow you literally can't understand it anymore or something like that. I don't think that will be the desired effect though.

That sounds annoying as all hell, but for Curiosity's sake I must know how you achieve this? Didn't know you could on ios at least.

I won't write it out here just in case someone is using their phone, but inside a series of double square brackets, you would type rate 0 then a set of double closing square brackets and then a space and the text.

If she's accustomed to listening to VoiceOver, jokes won't sound particularly amusing or out of the ordinary. Writing long strings of characters also isn't particularly funny to most of us. So just stick to regular jokes. Good luck.

I don't know any jokes, but VoiceOver is the screen reader for Apple products.
