Blaupunked. A state of being that describes a person who has permanently damaged hearing and lower tolerance for sustained loud music. This is caused by years of partying, clubbing, playing electric
guitar through an
amp at full volume and in close proximity. A Blaupunked person defends against suffering further hearing loss, sound triggered
pain, and triggers that cause ringing in the ears by investing in better audio
gear and refraining as much as possible from loud music events and situations whether
alone or in the company of others. Blaupunkedness, is a direct result of a lifetime of listening to music at the max volume and/or sticking their head in a speaker cabinet in Euro clubs, or standing
next to a guitar amp turned to 11. They are deemed to exist in a Blaupunked state.
