earjacking

eavesdropping on a conversation that you have no business hearing.

making your friends listen to horrible music against their will.
i hate riding in the van with her, i’m always earjacked!
to listen in on somebody’s conversation; to overhear;
i was ear jacking in on my mom’s conversation to hear what i was going to get for christmas.
to jack off in someones ear.
i was earjacking justin when the phone rang.
talking someone’s ear off. rambling on while not getting to the point (jaw-jabbin). trying to engage someone in a long-winded conversation who is obviously trying to get to the point and get on with thier day. also known as being held as a “conversation hostage”.
“i went to ask renee a quick question and she earjacked me for 30 min. she’s always earjacking people!”
malign monopoly of a hapless individual’s attention, through the aural c-n-ls. this nasty temporary possession might involve tricks with volume, tantalizing & purposeless gossip, half-garbled but compelling rumors, +/or claims of interpersonal priority (such as a martyred aunt or disabled neighbor), but the aim is to own you & ride you, pure & simple.
“so i sez to him, i sez why did you p-ss the salt to her first, aren’t i as important as she is? then he sez…”
“…and then the boss leaned over to him and promised- but you hate gossip, i know…gotta keep yr ear to the ground, or you’ll get stampeded…”
“so kin ya take me tasafta noon, huh? kin ya take me tamorrah? kin i have a quarter? how ’bout fi’bucks? kin ya hold me up for the bubblah? hey, d’ja hear me?”
“n-body believes me- but i saw this coming! no one listens but i told you, dindin’t i? i knew it, i knew this wld happen! remember when i told you…”
arrrgh!
