Agreed. My mother thinks I'm lying. I will admit I feel a little bit special that I can hear her motion activated cat-poop repeller thing.
I visited her recently and wasn't sure if I had finally aged out of my sensitive ears (34 now) or if her batteries needed to be replaced.
FWIW I wonder if people do not experience physical pain from certain sounds, because people seem to be totally fine with sirens but it feels like I'm having a spike pushed into the side of my head.
- ben_w 2y agoWhen I was a teenager, the applause from the end of year school talent show caused me physical pain — enough that the teachers noticed and got me out of the hall. This no longer seems to be the case, as I'm living right by a major junction and get random full volume sirens at least six times in the average day. I hate them, but they don't hurt.
