I’ve always been kinda paranoid about whether people can hear the audio of a BL drama I’m listening to while taking public transport and I notice that recently, I’ve been listening to music on my iPod at a much higher volume than before… so more than ever, I begin to wonder if my current volume level is going to out my BL drama listening activities to unsuspecting strangers without my conscious knowledge…
So, I decided to test playing a hard-sex track from Netsujou no Ori de Nemure (when I’m at home of course) at my current listening volume.
Having no other test subject to report the findings, I pressed the earphone against my own wrist and played the track…
OMG… Waccha’s moans can be CLEARLY heard!!!!!!!!
So if a person is right next to me, which is really common if you’re squeezing with other commuters on a bus or train during the morning/evening rush hour, it’s all there, ecstatic moans, breathless pants, climatic cries and all *MEGA-sweat drop*
Then I tested the same track with my headphones… Since the audio playback is clearer than the earphones at a lower volume, I don’t have to turn up the iPod as loudly. But the sound leak result is nearly the same, although a lot softer, the audio clarity is MUCH BETTER than earphones. Well… yeah, I suppose if I’m using headphones, the person has to stand a lot closer to me to enjoy the smexy audio with me but even then… it’s kinda… o_O lol~ *dead*
Maybe it’s not such a big deal but… I’m an idiot to not to realise this early enough *_* I used to be a little irritated when I sit or stand near commuters who play their music really loudly and the noise spills over from their earphones, so I’ve always been careful to lower my own volume in case it becomes a nuisance to others. But now I think maybe I’ve been gradually turning up the volume on my iPod higher than before. It’s scary cos my ears could be slowly dying on me as I can’t seem to be able to hear as clearly as before at the same volume? x_x
Any experience to share? Hope I not being too paranoid here XD
you are megane kyaa thats cute ♥
When i was small i had glasses but after 5th grade i stopped wearing them hints why my eyes are bad now. I might get glasses soon sometime but i know im going to have a hard time finding a good pair i think i look funny in them instead of smart/sophisticated like some people do.;-;
(i want that jacket in your wishlist!*o*)
(O=O) yeah megane… XD
I’m quite blind without my glasses, so they’re a necessity. I’m too lazy to maintain contact lenses but I have a pack of daily disposable lens as a back up. And cos I have a BIG face, it’s quite difficult to find cute(and cheap) frames that can fit *sigh* So I usually end up with relatively expensive frames that I don’t look too great in. Well, I think I look presentable in my opinion but not exactly stylish
For those that I do look great in? They’re usually branded stuff and cost a bomb and I don’t want to spend that much. I used to be envious of friends with smaller faces who can just grab any cheap frames at less than $60 bucks and still look great. AND change their frames relatively frequently for fun/fashion. But I’ve got over it ^^;;;
But I think it’s a matter of getting used to seeing yourself in megane or not, that’s why you think you look funny XD But if you can function well without glasses all these years, you probably don’t really need them at all.
(I’m hoping they have a sale for that jacket!!!)
I had the in-ear kind, but idk… maybe she didn’t hear ’cause she was old x’D
I like reading yaoi in public because people make funny faces~
Okie, does seem like in-ear phones are the way to go!
Hehehe XD that’s amusing! I’m too shy to do that.
i wish i could wear contacts but the docter told me id be wise not to…
Maybe a good thing you don’t wear them.
I’ll keep my eye on the jacket i doubt it might go on sale though, do items like those usually do? ;n;
My eyes often feel quite dry, so contact lenses feel uncomfortable for me real quickly, say within 2 hours? Well, I’ve been told that long hours of computer-use could be a cause… and do you notice that most optometrists don’t wear contact lenses? (o_o) Almost all the different ones I’ve been to, the people working there usually wear glasses! Maybe cos they studied the eye and know that not putting anything foreign objects into them is the best for us lol~ But that’s just my guess.
But I think if you want to try contacts, get the daily disposables cos you don’t have to worry about cleaning them later. The bacteria and residues on not properly cleaned lenses are the main cause for many eye diseases XP
I’ll buzz you if they have a sale! Usually the sales prices are around 30% off but they sell out very fast.
Whoah…you even listened to BL drama in public?? *o* awesome~
I’m way too paranoid to do that… OTL
plus I can’t concentrate even if I listen to BL drama in public D:
@maku: yeah, that’s silly of me eh? I was concerned about the possibility but maybe not paranoid enough lol~ I thought I perfected my bl-drama-poker face but… oh well x_x Anyway, after that little experiment, I’ve stopped listening to bl dramas in public already *dies of embarrassment* (Maybe until I find the ultimate non-sound-leaking earphones) XD
“and do you notice that most optometrists don’t wear contact lenses? (o_o)”
Yea i noticed that too. They be smart! XD
Okay! Thanks~^3^
