I bought cast iron pan which I think is the best ever purchase I made.

Custom molded earplugs. As a musician and photographer who shoots bands, I can't imagine NOT having them.

That is some complex assassination backstory you have there. What do you even have against music?

Nothing, he's a musician. He's just got to free up some space in the spotlight for himself

Good musician's earplugs will make everything quieter so as not to damage your ears, but you can still hear and enjoy the music. Industrial type ones are more powerful and block out as much as possible

Edit: I finally understood the joke

Music nothing most likely.

Not wanting to have massive tinnitus. Most likely the reason. Protect the ears.

Do you actually get tinnitus from gunshots?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Short answer : yes

Longer answer : continously being exposed to loud noise can hurt your hearing

Beyond that talk to an ear doctor or a musician / drummer or a military combat vet

I'll second this one, and I mostly only use mine for sleep. You can get some that you mold yourself, so there's less fear of losing them. I use Radians brand.
