I found in college the old sitcoms playing with nick at night were the perfect background noise while not being to interesting to pull my attention from the books.
I donβt do background noise. I exist in a state of silence most of the time.
Not because I need it that way, but because I literally donβt notice when something is on so why waste the electricity. If I do notice, Iβm definitely not doing whatever Iβm supposed to be doing..
But this, very importantly, only applies when I get to choose the noise. If someone is forcing noise on me (like my former manager who used to sing at her fucking desk) its incredibly distracting. Always.
Yep. Any external noise can be a big distractor.
Now make that noise repetitive, or something like the sound of someone eating, and it can send you though the roof.
It's all fun and games until you get even mild tinnitus and need some sound to not constantly hear iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
I guess I lump that in with sounds I ignore. Iβve had it for a loooong time, and it doesnβt bother me until I think about it (so you know, thanks.. ππ)
For me it's only easy to ignore if there is some background sound. By that I mean the most basics like the fans on a computer or just the wind outside. Or the echo of the room itself.
The problem is that I like to use over-the-ear closed headphones that block out most noise. So as soon as I stop playing anything, it becomes very obvious.
Spending 20 minutes finding the song with the right vibe then switching songs 2 minutes in...
Why you gotta call me out like that? This is annoyingly accurate. Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
You ain't a Doc and I don't give a gorram how much Edu you'd like to think that you can label yourself with on unrelated anything if anything. You think you can brag about it with such junky technicality that it won't be called but by someone actually so. But all that because you're so obviously a cheesy newbie narcissistic wannabe comedian.
This is supposed to be a group of relations and support. Not mockery and condescension. We'll find out how long my post lasts to that affair though. Some places can't handle it and if this place is like that, I don't want to be here anyway.
Humor therapy, also known as therapeutic humor, uses laughter and humor to promote healing and improve mental and physical health. It can help reduce stress, enhance mood, and even boost the immune system, making it a valuable tool in various therapeutic settings.
You can squawk like a really good parrot all you like but sadism will heal no one.
I am both modes at once
My wife is the first one, I'm the second. We have to be completely separate to get anything done.
Have you tried white/pink/brown noise?
I've tried theta wave and she's not a fan, but it works well enough if I'm in another room.
Drag thought brown noise was a myth
No, brown and purple are supposed to be good for tinnitus, too.
As an aside, how does drag feel about second-person pronouns such as "you" and "thou"?
Edit: Drag might be thinking of "the brown note" which is very different from "brown noise".
I end up not finishing the task in both scenarios
Yep π
I somehow have both at the same time π
Yo same. Can I DM you? Your username is personally relevant to something happening to me in a really weird way. If not its 100% Understandable, have a nice day
DMs are open :)

I either have Spotify going and grooving, or I'm so focused on work and forget to turn it on.
Yep. If I choose the noise I can block it out. But unsolicited noise somehow becomes all my brain can focus on.
Unsolocited noise is a banger band name
Damn you're so right
Can I have this plz? Being genuine
Let's form a band and then never come to practice and forget about our gigs and delay cutting a record forever because it's just so fucking much work
I put Spotify on the block out whatever it is that slightly squeaks in the back every time drive over a bump
Add some black tape for the warning light and we can be best friends.
