I have earplugs (Sonic II), but they get uncomfortable after a while, and don't cut enough of the really low frequencies for days like today. IIRC, they're designed for shooters and cross-marketed to musicians.
They were a real godsend when I saw Return of the King though. The movie was fine, but the previews were Way Too F'ing Loud. I was able to hear them better, as well as less painfully, with the earplugs in; then I removed the earplugs for the movie itself.
At some point I need to get better earplugs -- a) more comfortable, and b) perhaps different types for different noise-profiles, I dunno. Got any favourites to suggest?
I don't have faves, but I will ask ladytamma, as she is quite sensitive to sound and uses earplugs all the time. IIRC she has some wax ones that actually mold to the shape of the ears. Seems as if they would be more comfy than foam.

Earplugs are god's gift to anyone plagued by noise. Buy some. You won't regret it.
