The modern world is too damn noisy. Car alarms, beeping microwaves, chirping beepers, cell phones that play that hideous 50 Cent hook… it’s all just a bit much, isn’t it? “The people who make all these things obviously think we’re idiots. That without their constant, irritating reminders, we’d go wandering off, our minds blank, to drool down our shirts or spend 30 minutes tying our shoes. The world is noisy enough without adding completely useless aural pollution to the mix.”
