Im not gonna fuckin lie, I looked into buying one of these FOR WEEKS cus of my college dorm.
250 something dollars. Im good.
That is way too expensive for a product like this, that also might not work for its intended use (if their nose isn't fully covered like in the picture, I'd expect the screaming to leak out quite a bit. Might've worked for my idea of using it for call privacy (speaking softly) but still that's way too much for something that'll probably only be useful for that niche use-case.
250 is ridiculous, just buy a lavalier mic and put a face mask on at that point
A regular facemask won't dampen sound much though.
Stuff 3 socks in mouth first.
This, Im impulsive as shit, so just "Shutting up" aint gonna work like that sadly. The only other option is soundproofing the shit outta my room.
