A photograph of a young woman sporting a tattoo of a computer icon indicating that she’s deaf in one ear has become a hit on the image-sharing website Imgur. 

Elisa Menzel, from Berlin, Germany, inked the icon of a sound button on mute behind her left ear to indicate her partial deafness, after exasperated attempts telling people she encounters in daily life that she’s deaf, ABC News reports. 

I became tired of those questions and thought about a way to caution them. So I got the tattoo and it worked.
