The dumb girl across the street cant hear shit but refuses to get an aid, so I fuck with her and mumble softley when theres a gathering of people so she can't possibly know whats being said...lol
We also had a friend that ran with us when we were young that was almost deaf but wore a big aid. We would be in th car and mouth words and he would say what and when he turned up his aid we would blast the radio.
lol
Good times.

Weird thing was that our friend introduced us to another guy who ran with us for a while who eventually was one of the guys who went rambo on a post office back in the day. James Mcilvane I think his name was.
Killed two or three people then himself.
Agreed. It's definitely called pop.

I can get behind soda. What I can't get behind is referring to all types of pop as Coke. Like, "I'll take an orange Coke." No you won't, that's fucking nasty sounding.
just when i was really starting to like you.
pop? no.
just.... no.
GTFO, then.

I have and sometimes wear hearing aids.
They are useless in a group situation because all they do is amplify everything. It is almost impossible to hear one person if there are other people talking.
It is torture if there is background music in a restaurant, or a television in the room. People's voices get lost in the clutter of amplified sounds.
Without my aids I can hear voices clearly in a formal situation such as a debate or a lecture, or one to one without other sounds. I have lost the upper registers of music but when I am listening to a familiar piece of classical music my brain supplies the overtones I can't actually hear.
In his nineties my father wore expensive hearing aids but they were useless. The link between his ears and his brain had failed. Everything, even amplified, reached his brain as a meaningless jumble. He regretted losing music. He could remember music and attempt to stimulate his memory by using a printed score but he had lost the difference of interpretation of an aria or symphony.
When his hearing was failing but still working, if he didn't want to do what he was asked, or didn't want to continue a conversation, he would turn his hearing aids off.

Yes. It's been an ongoing thing since the stuff was invented. Pop or Soda.

Lmao. The day I order a "soda pop" is the day I will start watching Golden Girls and listening to the Beach Boys.
Where are you exactly in US? In NYC it's "large soda." Or whatever.
