Audiophile? Is that anything like a pedophile?

[redshifter]

co-workers can be so stupid sometimes.

Ohhh man. Background on this please!

And did they say it as if being a pedophile was some kind of quaint hobby too?

we were waiting for a meeting to start, and a co-worker asked me if i was an audiophile. she had questions about speaker wire.

i said yes, so another co-worker asked "is that like a pedophile?" ha ha ha! no.

i don't know if it was more annoying that he didn't know what an audiophile was, or that he compared it to pedophilia.

one hobby will get you 20 years of debt, whilest the other 20 years of jail. (i'm so clever after the fact).

What I do in the privacy of my own home is no one's business.

The question depends on whether we're talking about nikongod or not...

No need to imagine, we already have photographic evidence of at least one instance of inappropriate headphone love.

as a headphile i was offended, but on a deeper level my inner smartass was offended: it was a BAD joke.

and, he really never heard of an audiophile before.

Wow. That's pretty suggestive.

Actually, this is why I really don't like the "Portaphile" name. I know it shouldn't make a difference, but it's pretty close to pedophile and I can definetly see everybody I know mistaking it to be that
