I’ve had it my whole life, too. It’s pretty loud when I’m just sitting around. Lots of foolishness with my ears when I was younger.
Me, too. Loud unmuffled lawn mowers; loud guns; loud rock concerts; setting off entire rolls of caps with a hammer; loud power plant work; loud factories; loud machine shops; loud CANAM car races. Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart really rings true...and rings and rings and rings.
