    Never ask:

    • A man his salary
    • A woman her age
    • An audiophile how much they paid for their hoard

     

    On second thought, ask all of those questions.

    • Secrecy is how employers get away with wage inequality.
    • “I didn’t know she was 17” does not work in a court of law.
    • An audiophile will proudly point at their favourite budget headset. I mean, the Samson SR-850 is just insane value for its price. Sure, it’s a symphony of plastics, the design is just a straight rip-off of the AKG K240, and the fixed cable is a bummer, but the frequency response and the soundstage are out of this world. Plus the impedance is only 32 ohms: it easily runs out of a smartphone.
