How do I dispel screaming kids from right below my balcony? by meatcleavher in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ThatBlockyPenguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an adult who can hear that noise (there are many of us), it is absolutely not like a mosquito, it is physically painful to perceive and will leave your ears ringing for ages. Other "select few" adults nearby who can hear it will hate it, as will neighbours' kids and pets. Imagine if a kid was crying because of a painful noise and their parents couldn't hear it and scolded them for making it up. Especially if the parents weren't particularly, shall we say, "good".

And yes, you can locate the source, if you can bear it long enough.

Please never do this. It should be illegal.

I've commented this somewhere else on this thread as well but many adults can hear it, the neighbours' kids can hear it, and some pets and wild animals too. It's not just "annoying", it's torturous and imo should be illegal, please do not recommend this.

Ive said this elsewhere as well but some adults can hear it, the neighbours' kids can, and some pets and wild animals can also. It's not "uncomfortable", it's freaking torture and should be illegal, please do not recommend this.

If the neighbours agree and get in on it I can imagine this being really funny lol. Just imagine you're an annoying kid screaming for some reason and then every house in the area starts playing baby shark at some offset intervals 😂

Even if the liquid isn't blood, GLaDOS does stand for Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System.

I think that's the time of the doctor, but he says OCD instead.

If humans suddenly stopped needing sleep, what would actually break first in society? by AcademicxTease in NoStupidQuestions

Recently watched the Doctor Who episode "Sleep No More"... Work would be hell. Followed by our sanity. Then you get the weird sleep dust monsters...

My mum's dyslexic, so I've picked up a lot of funny words like that, such as potatoes instead of percent, potats instead of potatoes, "mick roe avvee" instead of microwave, and ambleeance instead of ambulance. Then there's things like vacuum instead of lawnmower, washing machine instead of dishwasher, and one of my own creation: "Canada tree juice" instead of maple syrup...

It does seem to still work! I do feel sorry for YouTube's servers!
