Drives me nutso! (which seems to be more acceptable to the industry)

I'm sure I hear things wrong sometimes -- but 80% of the time I ask the person watching next to me, they didn't understand it either, & apparently, they usually don't care. That, & I'm sure they hate when I ask.

So, I've gotten a lot of practice reading "subs" that way. I guess I hate missing dialogue more than watching with CC/subs.
Yeah, that's another reason I like subs. I'm able to keep following the story when I miss out on audio. Or when there's a noise you can barely hear. Or slang.

Probably
There's an alternative cover but it's not as sexy.
