hyperacusis
an ear condition,in which one has a collapsed tolerance to normal environmental sounds,which normally would not bother a person with normal hearing's ears.certain sounds will cause your ear drums to cringe,and have a spasm which is described as "fluttering" in the ear drum.it can be more severe in some cases than others from what i understand.it is caused by a number of things,such as prolonged exposure to loud noise,prolonged use of certain drugs,such as aspirin,head trauma,and many others.all though there isn't exactly a total cure for it,the ear's tolerance level can be brought up greatly by using pink noise cd's.by doing so it can get alot stronger,and it will be able to tolerate more noise,but it will not make the ear 100% better.
i am 18 years old and already have hyperacusis,mainly cause i did the stupid thing by listening to music on headphones daily,for 8 years,played in a band that practiced significantly loud,and used aspirin for a long period of time,due to the fact that i thought i had a non-existant heart problem.DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES AS ME.

Hyperion
A megaguild/conglomerate of gaming clans who achieved greatest prominence in the game Darkfall Online, where they dominated the initial European release server with vast numbers and a somewhat unique feudal approach to political organization. The kingdom, also known as Hyperion, Hypertron, or Lumen Solis, was denounced by many as a zerg because of this early domination of the game, which many saw as restrictive of the pvp the game design was supposed to engender. Others hailed the achievement of Hyperion as extraordinary for the Strategy/Conquest MMO genre.
humerious
(hew-mere-ious)
One is being "humerious" when they are "half joking" or being "half serious." It's a method of speech where someone makes a statement in a humorous way that implies/hints a serious idea behind it. Unlike being completely serious, it charms the target person, which usually results in a better outcome. People are humerious every day.
ps. Another good thing about humeriousness/humere is it gives the person the statement is said to the power to casually avoid or pursue the hint.. without hurting as many feelings as a rejection to a serious question.
