Do any of you have wireless headphones? Have you ever picked up and listened to someone elses conversation?

I don't have wireless headphones, no. I didn't do anything myself.

Cordless phones can do that too. My friend picked up a whole conversation once, from his friend's house across the street, and they were ordering dominoes. Sadly he wasn't evil enough to go later that night and say in an evil voice "HOW WAS YOUR DOMINOES"

Me, I pick up strange voices with my speakers. Dunno why.

Only thing that's happened to me so far is my computer speakers picking up radio chatter to the tower from a jet flying overhead. Hasn't ever happened again though...odd.

I have a radio scanner at home; it will pick up cell phone conversations, airplane radio chatter, stuff on CB radios...

I've picked up conversations with my cordless phone on occasion. The only thing I can tihnk of when it happens is "man, how much would it suck if anyone heard my conversations!" They would think I'm a lunatic!

I have two pairs of wireless headphones, different makes and brands, and they can pick up.. eachother. It's incredibly useful, actually, because I can have one transmitter plugged in to the TV and one to the computer, and I can switch between the two just by moving my head. And if I dance around like a madman I can hear both.

I have a portable survivalist-type radio that can pick up police transmissions when I tune in certain frequencies.

At work my PC speakers pick up comms from the courier company next door to the courier drivers. This happens even when I have the speaker volume right off.

I picked up the odd bit of radio chatter on a few of the toy walky talkies I have owned in the past. not much else though.

That happened to me once and I nearly pissed myself. I suddenly was hearing voices when supposedly I was alone at home. Yikes!

Why would you be scared of other people at home? What were you doing? Hmmm? :)
