deafer

A slang term describing a person who is hard of hearing/deaf, who makes it painfully apparent that they cannot hear anything. Deafers are easily identified by making obnoxious honking noises while signing, loud breathing, excessive use of the middle finger, and playing loud music in an attempt to hear the bass. Deafers are reportedly able to mimic seal noises during coitus.
John: Yo, those fucking deafers were up 'til 4 last night running up and down the halls.
Mary: I know, they kept honking at each other, and knocking their doors. Don't they realize they can't hear?

deaf jockey

Someone who drives around in a car with speakers blaring so loudly he can't hear shit but you can't help but hear the crap he's listening to.
That deaf jockey hit the fire engine in the intersection. Fool couldn't hear the siren.

Hey, deaf jockey, get the shit outta your ears.

That deaf jockey's so earless he can't hear anyone talking in a normal tone of voice.

They heard the deaf jockey coming miles away and set up the ambush, blowing his dumb ass off the road with an RPG.

deaf and dumb

Someone possessing the exact opposite of the stereotypes of a deaf person, like the comic book character Daredevil, but in reverse/ Instead of possessing acute senses to make up for their lack of hearing, a deaf and dumb person would probably die of smoke inhalation after starting a cooking fire because they are too unobservant to see the spreading flames, smell the smoke, or feel the heat, or and too idiotic to remember that they were cooking something in the first place -- all as the fire eventually consumed the house.
They have no deaf or hard of hearing friends because they're too lazy to learn sign language. Instead, they force you to use a unique form of pidgin that's a mixture of pantomime, pointing, and sounding things out with your mouth until you both become frustrated and the deaf and dumb becomes angry that you made them put their hearing aid on because they "don't like wearing it." It usually takes them 20 minutes to find their hearing aid but god forgive you if you have somewhere to be, as anything other than patiently waiting will result in them screaming at you while you can't respond. Even if they are able to hear you, they often obfuscate obvious sentences into nonsense. To use the first example of the cooking fire, a family member might run up to them and yell, "The house is on fire!" Even after having a lifetime to learn lip reading, they would probably respond, "The mouse has gone prior?" or, "I'm already using the fryer!! Are you blind?"
I learned ASL to better communicate with my deaf and dumb mother, but she said it was too hard, like learning to text. Instead she insists on screaming into the phone then hanging up on me when she gets frustrated. She will die alone.
