Have you ever been caught listening to weeaboo music?

I went back home for the summer and while I was listening to the most girly moe moe song in my soundtrack I noticed that my brother snuck up behind me and had his ear right next to my closed Sennheiser 280 HDs. The smirk on his face when I finally noticed him almost made me crawl into a fetal position and whimper, but instead I just punched him in the face as he ran out laughing and telling my other brother.

I don't think I'll ever live it down.

>Have you ever been caught listening to weeaboo music?
Yeah, I use headphones, but it's still loud enough to be heard around the room and outside if I feel like hurting my ears.
Everytime they ask me why I listen to japanese songs I specify that I listen "also" to japanese song, and unlike them with english songs I actually understand the words.
This shuts up pretty much everyone.

[Fujiwara no Mokou !!mGXYMm0qKk/ No.]

You're not a TruNEET if you care about being "caught" or are still in a position to be "caught".

Music is just a music. Nobody cares here.

[Sudo !nAoZUmIAfk No.]

I don't go out, and no one comes in my room. So no, I haven't been "caught."

[【五角场之无名氏】 No.]

My dad watches Gundam and my mom listens to Nakashima Mika. So I guess they'll never "catch" me.

At my friends LAN party I usually listen to my playlist while playing games, but one time I left to do something while leaving it on. I came back and a few of my long-time friends were listening to it, it was on a Muv-luv song that they thought was awesome. But then the next song that popped up was the voiced version of Happiness of the marionette, that one brought up some normalfag cliche responses.

"Caught" implies that I try to hide it, so no. I listen to weeaboo music through my speakers loud enough that I'm sure my roommates and neighbors can hear it. I don't care and I doubt they do either.

Caught? I listen to it openly. I was singing Once&Forever yesterday withe the speakers blasting. Embrace your tastes anon, don't try to hide them.

I find it horribly rude to wear headphones in a house with other people in it, not to mention I wouldn't be able to hear the difference anyway.

When I was on summer vacation, I was in my room listening to "la divina tragedia" on my headphones. My family was out, room was nice and away from any sort of windows and pedestrian traffic so I decided to sing along. Song ends and, lo and behold, my mother who JUST arrived puts her head through my door and asks "Were you singing?". I said "yes" and then she left. ;_; I wonder what she thought of me.

Back when people still had CD players, I was listening to this CD that my sister burnt me. I was on a camping trip (lolboyscouts), riding in the car with some friends. One of my friends borrows the CD player and hears "Rasputin." He thinks it's awesome. Suddenly, the theme song to Di Gi Charat comes on.

Thanks, sis.

I don't listen to faggoty music that would embarass me to be heard. It's all either rock, pseudo techno like the Black Lagoon opening, jazz, or just largely vocal songs. All of these are no different from other songs I have in other languages.

All of them are also far less annoying than the bit tunes, (non-remixed) touhou music, and general game music that I listen to.

The only exception to this is the Tsukune chan opening, ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSVG1Bh1A0I ) but it just sounds like a country music song and still far less annoying than other things.

My sister and I were listening to Caramelldansen on Youtube, and we started doing the dance. Partway through, we both realized that our mother had walked into the room and was watching us with what I THINK was a smirk on her face. I have insane early detection skills and she COMPLETELY NINJA'D ME.

Also, you know in anime and manga where when someone is caught doing something and everyone stops moving for a while and turns to ash? Yeah, it was like that.

I was waiting for the train, listening to music on my phone when the thing slipped from my hand and the earplugs snapped out, routing Innoncent Key to the main speaker (which is very loud).
I scrambled to pick up the phone from the platform and thrust the jack back in. It was a very intense five seconds.

I don't care about people catching me listening, it's when they catch me singing along I get embarrassed. Especially considering I try to match the girls voice.

Wow, the sentiment in this thread certainly conflicts with the usual "Hiding your powerlevel" when it comes to interpersonal relationships. What makes music that much different? Some of the moe moe and songs with vocals as if the chipmunks did them, plus the fact that its japanese usually gets me the "I am dissapoint" around my family.

anime music is stupid even in japan. It becomes amplified if it's also foreign. If you listened to normal japanese songs, you wouldn't be half as embarrassed.

It's one of those meaningless sequences of unrelated words people like to throw around so much. There's no genre of music called weeaboo. What it probably means is something non-describable like "whatever makes you look like liking Japan".

There's nothing wrong with listening to what you enjoy the most. I'd rather support a guy who just listens to video game music he likes over one who only listens to western popular trash for fear his peers will think he's not "normal".

I was at work in the primary development lab, and I had some Kotoko playing with my headphones. I sneezed and then during the recoil I leaned back to far and the headphone jack popped out.

Because I had sneezed, everyone was looking at me, some dozen or so people.

I fumbled for about 10 seconds trying to get the headphone jack back in, and I tried pausing it on the computer too, but the computer had frozen up for a few seconds due to some background processing.

I was made fun of for months until I moved to a different project in-house.

One of the guys at my university once asked me about the music I listen to. I don't listen to moe-moe stuff that often, so I thought I have nothing to fear. I give him my headphones and shuffle through the tracks fast enough so he can't hear all the Japanese lyrics. And then I stumble upon Hanamaru Sensation, which is, like, one of the 8 moe songs among my 205 tracks.

I've learned later that he's a Bleach fag, so I don't care about his opinion.

[Anonymous No.]

Several times. I am normally asked where such strange, upbeat music is from.

My sister says it is really cheery. My mother doesn't understand it and my father has no taste in music, so his opinion is void.

I don't listen to very much bubbly moeblob music (though I do have a few songs I like) because I have a low tolerance for squeaky japanese vocalists.

one time, when I was still in high school, I was waiting for class to start.
To kill time, I decided to listen to some weeaboo music on my phone, so I plugged in my headset and started the song. For some odd, the volume was very low, so I turned the volume to max. This didn't help much though, and I noticed people were starting to stare so i took out my headset and noticed the music was still playing, just louder than before. The headset was for some odd reason not plugged in correctly so it just started playing through the speakers. It was rather embarrassing .
