Ansem Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 I'll turn the volume on my headphones up as loud as I please tyvm. There's nothing you can do about it either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freohr Datia Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 (edited) Why do people use headphones and then crank the volume all the way up? It makes no sense. If you're going to use headphones, isn't the purpose so that others can't hear what you are listening to? I am making this rant because there are certain people in my life who will remain unnamed that are constantly guilty of this. Sometimes it gets so bad I can't even focus on what I'm listening to with my own headphones! It's even kept me from sleeping in the past! This has been a public service announcement: if you're going to use headphones with other people around, make sure only you can hear the sound coming out. lol luckily for me it's only one person that's terrible at that, but he only does it in the hallways in my school. There are these one headphones I used that block out noise. I'm in the loud cafeteria and, depending on how loud I make my music, it may or may not block out the entire cafeteria. See they have pluggy thingies. Edited September 6, 2010 by Freohr Datia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 wow, you cant sleep from peoples heaedphones? come back when you have real sleeping problems. also, why should you give a fuck how loud my music is? Just because it doesn't fit someone's definition of "real" sleeping problems doesn't mean it won't annoy the hell out of me. Troll harder. (No offense intended to people with sleeping disorders) I don't care how loud your music is. I don't live with you. Just be courteous to those around you who don't want to hear the crap coming out of your headphones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

someonewhodied Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 you know (some) people don't do that to deafen themselves. Some have faulty ears and need higher volume, while some put their headphones AROUND their ears so they can still hear when there are people talking to them (Me).

Jaybee Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 No point putting it around your ears; just listen using only one of the earpieces when talking to someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BK-201 Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Some have faulty ears and need higher volume, while some put their headphones AROUND their ears so they can still hear when there are people talking to them (Me). I'm sure that 90% of students that listen to music through headphones have ear problems. Also, like JB said, use one ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Oh, and as for me... well, I usually check my taking both earphones off, and then turning it around (so my ear faces the outside of the earphone) and I try to check if I can hear anything. Usually, I can't hear much, so it's fine. And I usually use a volume of about 7/8 when listening to music (why can't there be a 7.5 dammit), so I'm still fine, to my knowledge.

Narga_Rocks Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 HEY MAN YOU COUGH WAY TOO LOUD SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Trueblade Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Earbuds are better for when you don't want other people to hear it because it is inside you ear and the soundwaves are ONLY going into your ear. With headphones, the sound can go into your ear AND out the other side of the headphones, allowing people to hear it more easily. I use headphones just because I like them, although my music is never extremely loud. If I wanted people to hear it, I would use my portable speakers.

Interceptor Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Losers, all most of you. Courtesy, which is no longer Common, is a lost art. If you infringe upon other people's personal space for no other reason than selfishness, that is rude. If that statement offends you, you are probably a self-entitled asshole, and I'd relish the opportunity to help cure you of it by donating a Shoryoken to your chin. Some of you are additionally idiots, who will be losing hearing range by your late twenties, well on your way to going partially deaf just when everything else starts falling apart. I can't wait for this fallout from this one. Someday we will have the epidemic of iPod imbeciles with irreversible hearing loss, joining forces with Fatties That Gave Themselves Diabetes in order to strangle the wealth of society to death with expensive, preventable medical procedures. For me, volume never goes above the minimum needed. With decent headphones, sometimes this is one click above "off". My favored headphones are in-ear ones for everyday use, and ones with active noise-canceling for loud environments. Why do people use headphones and then crank the volume all the way up? It makes no sense. If you're going to use headphones, isn't the purpose so that others can't hear what you are listening to? It's because they are inconsiderate pricks. This thread affirms it. I am making this rant because there are certain people in my life who will remain unnamed that are constantly guilty of this. Sometimes it gets so bad I can't even focus on what I'm listening to with my own headphones! It's even kept me from sleeping in the past! This sounds like a CRFH. If it's any consolation, it could be worse. Mine were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interceptor Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Loud music has been a problem since Music. However, these days, everyone has their own little bubbles of stimulation. Ubiquitous portable music players have changed the landscape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
