This isn't an April Fools' thing, promise.
So yesterday I got a pair of new headphones (Panasonics, because I'm an audiophile with sophisticated tastes...and a small wallet), and I decided to break them in on the bus this morning. I get the window seat and settle down for my ride to my University, and, after TURN DOWN FOR WHAT, used "Loose Ends" to get an idea for how well this pair could handle dynamic sound.
What I didn't realize was how much sound actually leaked out of these 'phones, and I forgot what's considered appropriate volume for over-ears that don't cancel sound(previously had ear-buds). So bam, thenewgreen's honey-suckle voice starts up in clear listening range of most of the seats around me, including the pretty redhead that just sat next to me.
She asked me who I was listening to and that she dug it, we had a conversation, and now I'm getting coffee on Thursday.
Thanks TNG, you're doing God's work
