I came here to say that, and I'll add wear ear protection if you're anywhere loud. Who gives a shit if you don't look cool wearing a headset or ear plugs. You know what else isn't cool? That constant ringing in my ears because I was an idiot for years. I have to sleep with two loud fans now.
Omg yes the ear protection. I never paid attention to the warnings, it was just a loud club on a random Thursday after all. I was too young to realize the compounding effect. Even now I look back and feel like my partying and exposure to loud fun was mild, yet here I am with partial hearing loss and a portable white noise generator.
my dumbass fell asleep with mp3 at full blast when i was 7. WHYYYYYYYYYYY
