My best retort to those that think we listen to our stereos more than the music

Maybe for you!  I prefer my music without women, who like too much horrible stuff.  I prefer my women in the kitchen cooking for my partner and me.

Blueranger.... It’s like crap... all assholes have it, but some assholes brag about theirs.

Personally, I listen to music with my 'stuff'.

I only 'listen' to the equipment (aka, 'stuff') if I'm running some sort of adjustments...and if running white or pink, with earplugs or the sort of 'headphones' I use with a chainsaw.

Either way....I don't expect Perfection.
'Pleased with the outcome' is usually enough....;)

By the way, sex should be approached with the same attitude imho...*S*

Sans any sort of headphones or earplugs, of course....

Oddly in agreement. I thought the analogy was spot on. AB
