I used to play drums and damaged my ears because nobody told me that wearing earplugs is a good plan. I have a fair idea of how loud something has to be to damage your eardrums. Ambulance/fire trucks and the caltrain horn 'I'm about to cross a road! I'm expressing through this station! etc' are loving loud and can damage your hearing. I block my ears when cars with sirens drive past or trains blow their horns. Also yeah, earplugs at concerts. Thankfully the hearing damage occurred when I was a teenager and somehow my hearing recovered a bit so it's still average or above average.

losing your hearing is a clear sign of genetic inferiority, untermensch

vehicle sirens are routinely 125db, higher in some cases, which means that your threshold for exposure without the possibility of permanent hearing damage is 3 seconds or less, hth

nah, it's more a sign of doing basic dumbass things like routinely exposing yourself to 125-130db without protection.

well it looks like you just volunteered yourself for sterilization :smaug:
