DezDroppedFreak 07/19/18 11:11:29 PM #55:	Which is it??? That quote was straight up trolling lmao Ill admit that OK let me explain. Having one headphone can't simultaneously "not effect my ability to talk" and mean "Take the hint that I don't want to talk." Either the hint is: "I don't want to talk, as made clear by only giving half my attention to the conversation." Alternatively: "I can talk fine with one headphone in, it's basically the same as not having any in, so feel free to talk to me" It can though. Its all about context. If someone already had headphones in and they took one out for the response, it means fuck off. If someone planned to have one earbud in, like me, today, when I was laying out on the beach, knowing there were people I was going to socialize with but didnt want to bother with blaring my music for all of them to hear, then its not really impeding on the ability to have a conversation. I can listen to my music and still communicate with them. Whether thats perceived as rude or not is another issue, but even then that all depends on your relationship with the people in question. BongoBongo posted... It's an escapism tactic. The people that do it will deny it, but it's true. Music absolutely can be an escape and I dont think anyone would deny that. --- https://imgtc.com/i/6wZBSPr.png -Turbam https://imgtc.com/i/XrKGPKv.jpg <cite>DezDroppedFreak posted [p:905390341] in What's wit...
