...because this made my eyes moisten slightly with sadness and despair for the human race.

And then I wanted to track down that bartender and feed them their own eyeballs. But still.

Remember to keep your eyes peeled for a bartender that knows how to sign.

Actually there's nothing in the OP that confirms that is is a barman, it could be a barmaid. Also, yeah what kind of person learns to sign and then treats a deaf person like that? It should make you think that maybe there is more to this story than meets the eye. It could be that a grab a pitchfork reaction is appropriate but, yanno, it could be that something entirely different is going on.
That said, anyone who reduces someone to tears like that is such an apparently thoughtless way deserves to feel like a real shit about it.

Is MMIX just a bot that shows up when it's alerted to an opportunity to correct someone on some irrelevant semantic and then repeat something someone else already said?

I'm starting to think so.

I actually assumed it was a woman because gendered insults are typically used with their associated gender. Dudes get called "bitches" but when people are raging at assholes like that one, I find it more likely that "bitch" is used to swear at a woman.

But it doesn't matter, because the person is a fuck.

I assumed it was a chick, but who cares? Whoever it is still deserves something horrible.

I'm betting you're right. And you know what? Some people just don't deserve to have a job. Customer service... it's called that for a reason.
