If there’s yet another thing the cost of living crisis has taken from young people, it’s the ability to shave the carrot without worrying about your roommates hearing you – and at age 29, Betoota Heights bloke Keith Hammond unfortunately perform solo activities without conducting a few checks beforehand.
You see, unless Keith wants to give up the perks of being able to afford the odd night out or cough up an extra $100 a week for a shoebox studio with a coin operated laundry machine up four flights of stairs, he’s just going to have to make do with his arrangement.
“Every bloke has heard a horror story about a mate accidentally connecting to the living room speaker”, he explains to our reporter, who isn’t entirely sure what he’s talking about, “and wondering why the fuck no sound is coming out of his headphones.”
“Always, always, turn off your Bluetooth after casting to a TV.”
“Or at least do a test run by watching a YouTube video first.”

“Yeah luckily he was just living with some guys, so it wasn’t too bad.”
“But he’s still known as Milky to this day”
“Yeah don’t ask”, Keith says, in answer to our reporter’s confused expression.
