oneshot Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 My wife got Hearing Aid my Insurance pays for and I can hear. My TV had it turned up 100% and still couldn’t really hear it. Now 50% and hear it just fine. oneshot Terrierman, BilletHead and nomolites 3
Quillback Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 I have some people in my life that I wish would get hearing aids, I get tired of yelling at them just trying to hold a conversation. snagged in outlet 3 1
oneshot Posted April 29, 2020 Author Posted April 29, 2020 I either ignore or answer with yes. I had to laugh at my Deft Sister in Law she was taking care of kids and they was all hollering . She just laughed, I can’t hear them! oneshot

HAHA, yeah that's something else, first you have to say something to them to get their attention, of course they don't hear it, so you have to repeat. One of my fishing buddies is hard of hearing and another issue is that they think they have to yell to be heard. He's always yelling at me - "WHAT COLOR WORM ARE YOU THROWING?" or something similar at 0530 on a quiet summer morning. snagged in outlet 3 and BilletHead 1 1

I asked him where his hearing aids are and he always says in the truck🙁 The old joke. Excuse me lady can you turn your boobs down I can’t hear you. Quillback 1
tjm Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 Yelling actually makes it harder to understand what you think you are saying. I've had tinnitus for about forty years and volume ain't the answer Y'all need to enunciate and it will help if you look right at me. My wife gets my attention then turns her head the other way while she mumbles, then she yells while still looking in some other direction then she gets mad and says "your hearing aids don't work you need to get them fixed". When you yell it distorts your slur even more than normal. Mostly it will help if you spit the marbles out before you speak. bfishn 1

Life is good now I can be in my own room watching my own TV, way away from her. She is at work most the time. Today she has weekly meeting over the Coronavirus. Not in same shape this one Guy. He is married, has a Child by a former Girlfriend, is living with a Woman. They are buying a House together. He is spending time with a married Woman. The woman he is buying a House with is not happy. Oh the Drama. I have never went this far. My Sister says he is Dead. oneshot
tjm Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 CC on TV is so much quieter and the hearing aids won't fall out in my sleep, cause TV is as good Ambien as soporific.
