@Dreamy ew ads? How do you stand it?! Any time an ad enters my sensory awareness I immediately rush to mute/pause/change it 😅

 

Do you like people-watching at all?

Re: Battles

@Jynx I can't stand them. I channel surf in my car until I find a station that's playing a song but my radio in my house is too hard to change the station. I usually put my speaker on but my head hurts. 

 

Nope not a fan of people-watching.

Re: Battles

@Dreamy spotify and noise cancelling headphones are honestly the only way I can go to the shops (or anywhere public) lol

 

What sort of music do you like to listen to?

Re: Battles

@Jynx yes my noise cancelling ear buds are the only way I can do shopping. When I take them out to go through the registers I instantly become overwhelmed by the noise. 

 

I like all sorts, don't have a specific type. 

 

I have to leave my house and deal with people, I'm really not up for this tonight.

Re: Battles

@Jynx don't worry my memory is no better, my brain is just complete mush.

 

That's where I am now, ear buds in but still on the verge of having a panic attack. I need a distraction, trying to not look like a fool in front of everyone here.

Re: Battles

@Dreamy omg you just gave me an idea for a service offering embarrassment distraction!! I follow you (at distance so no one knows we're associated) and act REALLY HECKIN FOOLISH but not like actually nasty or too obnoxious, just enough that then you can be like muahaha no one will notice me slip between you all!! 

 

I would totally act like a complete fool. Tomfoolery is in my nature!! 

 

Hmmm who even is Tom anyway why he so special he got an entire brand of foolery named after him...?
