    Why, I don’t want to hear them complaining about the current state of the world, I’m already depressed because all of it, I just want to drink my beer in peace and overwhelming conversation-canceling noise, with my friends close to me, where just a glance at each other saying “I feel the same” is enough.

      Weird, my friends and I may occasionally talk about the bad stuff, but there’s always something good going on. We can be excited for upcoming things too.

      I like being able to have conversations at bars and restaurants. In my bachelor days when I was dating an amazing person she knew all the good bars and restaurants that you could actually have conversations in. We always knew going in to a social thing if it was gonna be a good conversation or just yelling and “what?”

      Plus the ear damage from the loud shit is no joke. Tinnitus started for me by mid 30s and I never listen to loud music or do stupid stuff, beyond bars and parties.

        I was joking, I can’t handle the large chaotic crowds of bars (autistic). I just meet with friends at home or go when it’s not busy.

        I used to go to illegal techno parties, even organize them myself. Never protected my ears. Recent tests show my hearing is in perfect condition. Since I’m afraid of tennitus, I always wear ear protection now when there’s loud noise. At parties, at the metal workplace I go to, when people are javkhammering on the street, etc. I’m very lucky, several DJ friends of mine were too late and have tennitus now too.
