squinty ears 

unable to hear very well.
unable to understand what someone just said and repeating what you thought you heard.
very bad ears.
horrible listening skills.
selective hearing.
to have squinty ears is like having squinty eyes.

for example, did someone just say my name?

squinty ears part...
1. you're throwing a grenade? 2. who's renee?

Squint your ears 

When you're trying to hear something that's annoyingly low.

You always have to squint your ears around Dan's annoyingly passive aggressive friend.
