騒音の影響
私はまだ内容が4から5割ぐらいしか理解できないので、車の中で
通勤中に大音量にして聞いています。たまにトピック内で17時、18時の鐘が聞こえてきます。
もうこんな時間と思ったらまだ午前8時だったり、この間はトピック内で救急車の音が聞こえて、車の中だったので若干焦ってしまいました。
お二人は全く悪くないですが、大音量で聞いているとお二人の周りの環境音が入ってきます。
お二人は隣の部屋の住人がうるさいことで悩まされたり、電車の音、車の音などの環境音で悩まされたりしたことはありますか?
いつも応援しています。これからも頑張ってください。
Yeah.
You know, I don't know how many people realize this over the show, but there's a dog.
You know this.
There's a dog over there.
I don't know which floor it is, but it's barking 24-7.
Yeah.
20-fucking-4-7.
Yes, yes.
Not right now, surprisingly, but all the time.
Always.
It sees me, it's like a chihuahua.
Yeah.
I can hear chihuahua.
I get it, I get it.
Like a small dog.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That boy is barking all the time.
Yeah.
All the time.
Yeah.
It's not, you know, we're not living in this room, so I'm okay.
I just come to this place to do little things in two, three hours and left.
Yeah.
But if I'm living here and hearing that noise all the time, I would be, I would be, punch my wall.
I don't know why, but like.
I mean, yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
It's pretty much big.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Big as in like a problem?
I mean, as a volume.
Oh, yeah.
Easily, like.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
But it's not coming from the next room or nothing like that.
It feels like it's.
Like upstairs.
Yeah.
It's like, we can hear it from the windows, you know?
It's like coming out from the windows and coming in to our windows, right?
Not through the walls.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I have to like.
We don't even know if it's upper though.
It could be like two stairs.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It could be.
It could be like diagonal or something.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It could be anything.
But I know it comes from this way.
Yeah.
Right?
You can hear it from this way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
環境音の影響
Ambulance.
What do you think about ambulance?
Ambulance?
We get a lot of ambulance here.
I get a lot of ambulance in my place as well.
Oh, okay.
Place I'm in right now.
I've.
I became used to it already.
I see.
Yeah.
I don't think there were any times where it bothered me.
Okay.
But the Bosozoku, the fucking bikers.
Okay.
At night.
Here?
I used to live around here.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Remember?
Them bitches would drive around here.
Oh, the big road over there?
Yeah.
You know there's a big road right there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Those fuckers would ride those streets at night.
At night.
And it's so loud.
That really did irritate me.
Yeah.
Several times I've dreamed of throwing them eggs.
I did.
I can reach them through my balcony.
Yeah.
騒音の体験
I can.
Is that that close to the road?
It's throwable.
It's throwable.
Yeah.
I can see them when I go out to my balcony.
I can see them.
Okay.
And there's a shingo-ki there.
So if it's a good timing, they would stop right at that shingo.
And that's when I would come in.
Boom.
I've imagined that sometimes, yes.
Are they like big group?
Yeah, from the noise, it feels like four or five.
Oh, but four or five.
Okay.
They're not like 20, 30.
They're not 20 or 30.
I don't think those exist in Tokyo anymore.
No.
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe.
Maybe.
But yeah, not here.
Not here.
It's like four or five.
But still.
Still obnoxious.
Still.
Obnoxious enough.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Terrible.
It's a new neighborhood.
Is it quiet or?
Yeah, very quiet.
Pretty quiet?
That's good.
Yeah.
That's good.
Sometimes, yeah, they're quiet.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Little boys around, I think living around my place, and sometimes saying like, tadaima!
I hear that sometimes, but it's not that noisy.
Is that the...
Yeah, kids.
How about kids?
Are you okay with like kids?
I don't, like at least now.
Now you don't hear anything?
Well, yeah.
I've never lived next to kids, I guess.
I see.
All my entire life.
Do you?
Right now, I live close to...
Oh, okay.
Facilities.
Oh, facilities.
Yeah, facilities where they keep a lot of kids.
You know, it could be Yo-chan or Shibako or something like that.
They're loud.
They scream.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, so you can hear it.
Oh, I see.
You can hear it.
But I guess it's not that bad.
It's not that bad.
Yeah.
Yeah, I remember the place I was living, you know, around here.
They were just like, I think the same situation, but there was a hoikuen, I guess nearby.
Yeah.
And they do like little osanpo.
Osanpo, okay.
Every day.
And then...
A group of osanpo.
Yeah, a group of osanpo.
And then I think the osanpo route was in front of my place.
I see.
So in every, like, around 10 in the morning, like...
Right.
Yeah.
You're really good at imitating how they sound.
But it's okay.
I was relatively, like, finding it, like, uplifting thing.
Like heartwarming?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, it's morning.
Kind of.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
Yeah.
Right.
But koji, I had some koji going on, not exactly the next door.
Yeah.
But, like, in two places, like, one block away, like, those.
The koji sounds was huge, and sometimes it was...
And it's at night, too.
Yeah.
Those loud ones are night.
Like a dorokoji.
That's terrible.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
That's terrible.
Yeah.
So that, yeah.
Yeah.
I had that.
Right.
You're going to have to...
It's going to be there for, like, a week or two.
Yeah.
Yeah.
騒音の体験
Yeah.
It's terrible.
It's terrible.
True.
Yeah.
Dorokoji, ne, tashikani.
Well, I think I had not dorokoji, but, like, building koji.
Oh, so daytime?
Not night.
Yeah.
Okay.
I don't remember night time.
Yeah.
That happens, too.
Yeah, yeah.
But you were living, like, I guess, like, big roadside, I guess?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dorokoji.
During the night time, they have to do that.
True.
Have you ever lived below the room where it was going, undergoing, like, a house cleaning
after they've left?
Oh.
No?
No house cleaning.
But I had once.
Yeah.
My, the room, one floor up.
Yeah.
Just.
Just.
Right above you?
Right above my house, my place.
Yeah.
And I think he was drummer or something.
Drummer?
Drummer.
Oh, drummer.
Yeah.
And then one day, he was building, like, a bone studio in a room.
Oh, I see.
Okay.
And he did some kind of koji.
It was, like, real bones, not something, like, instant ones.
He rebuilt the walls.
I see.
He, like, reconstructed the room.
Yeah.
So, I remember one day, when I entered to the elevator, and there were, like, some koji
guys, and carrying, like, huge balls, and just going up to my.
Oh, shit.
Yeah.
Isn't that the worst?
Yeah.
That was the worst experience.
Yeah.
They did, like, three days in a row.
In a row?
In a row.
In a row, yeah.
Yeah.
They did a koji, and I was like, please.
I was about to say, like, when the guy above you is undergoing, like, the house cleaning,
that is so much noise, but your situation, I think, is much worse.
It's construction site above you, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
House cleaning is that loud?
House cleaning is bad, too.
It gets loud.
It's loud.
You hear, like, thumps and a lot of shit, but that must be worse.
Yeah.
Yeah.
When I woke up, I heard, like, gah, gah, gah, upstairs.
I was like, what?
What is going on?
And, yeah, I went up to see what's going on.
And then the doors were open, like, blue sheets.
Yeah.
And then, yeah, I look into the inside, and,
What are you doing?
Yeah.
They're making a studio out of koji.
I was like, oh, shit.
You know, I think it's fair to warn whoever's, like, below or next to.
He should say something.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Yeah.
All right.
Thanks for listening, guys.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
