Sighted folks, when you're helping give guidance to a blind guy, please know we take everything literally. (self.Blind)

Please note, we run our lives like a military operation, because we don't have a choice in the matter. When you say "hard left" we think that means hard left.
​
If you mean "in 1.5 meters take a hard left, than say that".
​
I ended up doing a face plant into a ditch full of prickle bushes. Now I'm all cut up to all hell.
​
I find it quite funny myself, but still... lesson learned. The joys of being blind.

Accurate! I can’t use context clues from the environment to figure out what someone means, taking them literally is my only option!
Glad you had a good sense of humor about it :)
