Did you blow out your ears listening to rock?

Same here. After years of jamming too loud in small spaces, loud anything tends to irritate me.

 

Had My Ears Tested About 3 Years Ago And The Audiometrist Said My Hearing Was

About The Same As A Typical 24 yo....

He Was 35 And His Hearing Was No Where Near My Results.

Quite Amazing Really Since I Have Worked On The Farm All My Life, Driving Tractors With

No Cabins And No Earmuffs, Chainsaws, Working For Weeks In Shearing Sheds,

And Of Course Years Of A Series Of Stereos With Very Big Amps 750rms

And Very Big Speakers.

In The Last 12 Months I Notice My Right Ear Has A Very Low Whistle Sometimes, But

Other Than That I Can Still Hear A Flea Fart At 30 Paces...:2thumbsup:

I was actually thinking about bumping my tinnitus PSA a few days or weeks ago.

Unfortunately the only people who care are the ones who already have the irreversible damage done.

My ears ring every day, every minute. Every time I go to bed, and when I wake up. Not to lay a sob story looking for woes but believe me, it is real. Insult me if you need to.

I carry ear plugs in my pocket with my chap stick as casual as people need to remember their house keys.

 

Whilst in work, I have my earphones plugged in (quite high) to
:rockon:
-> it helps me through the day
When at home, whilst I still listen to tunes though, more of a laid back vibe though not blasting as such
Music has, is, and will always be with me

We get our hearing checked yearly at work and except for one tone in my left ear my hearing is perfectly fine.

 

they can't hear us all the way from the kitchen anyways.

I don't know why I enjoy making jokes about my gender lol, i'm a feminist. it makes no sense.

 

I Don't Want To Sound Too "Olde And Wise"..:wheelchair:..But Trust Me, One Of The Most

Valuable Assets You Can Posess In This Life, Is The Ability To Have A Good Laugh At

Your Own Expense....

I Have Used This Approach To Life Since Forever, Not Only Has It Got Me Out Of

The S**t On Hundreds Of Ocassions, I Think It Certainly Contributed To The Retention

Of My Sanity All These Years As Well....*although some on here may beg to differ*

Do You Ever Have Any Trouble Hearing People Who Don't Capitalize Their Words?

 

What Was The

Question Again.?..:elf:



Cheers Glen.

 

I have super sonic hearing so I don't have to listen to music loud. Every time I go to a club I always ask myself why do I continue to go cuz it hurts my ears sooo bad for days after.

 

yeah I can't stand loud tvs or music in my car...I keep my music down almost all the way. But people's voices I have a hard time hearing on the phone...and usually low, deep voices are really tough for me. Its strange

 

Man, when you get to be my age you're going to need a hearing aid that hangs around your neck!!

 

i love to rave at raves. lol but i always wear those colorful squishy earplugs there.

 

I love the ones that glow in the black light.

 

omg, me too! those are the only ones that i would use because they are easier to see
