    Spent a lot of summers with my grandma, her brother, and her sister growing up. The best day of Uncle Karl’s life was when he got hearing aids because he would just turn them off when my grandma and Aunt Millie started nagging him about something.

    Oh hey, that’s the kind of bullshit I pull. In my defense I really don’t want to hear my coworkers opinions today

      Very cool power move ! We can also do it with our hearing aid too or sign langage !

      Better, i can remplace sound with music and no one would notice it. :3

      I still can’t hear well, it has only been two months since its activation. However, my comprehension has improved according to my doctor. :)

    Best I can do is headphones that can switch between noise cancelling and hear-through modes. 😔
