Now I know why everyone describes these vuvuzelas as a menace to your hearing. Even with all my windows closed I can hear their horrible trumpeting all over the place. They are actually more piercing than the usual car horns.
Yeah. It's already died down now, but this was just an early game after all. It'll only get worse from here on.
At least unlike the neighborhood dogs who felt the need to bark in alarm to join the vuvuzelas my rats are very zen about the trumpeting. But then outside noises no matter how sudden or loud never seem to bother them (whereas even soft, unexpected inside noises coming from real things, rather than computer or tv which don't bother them either, can get them to startle and flee).
