[Captain's Note: I could also hear it, and found it so irritating I could only tolerate about five seconds of it.]
i can hear it, and it doesn’t really bother me. sometimes i play it at work just to screw with people.
Oh bullshit. I’m sixty fucking two and hear it loud and clear.
It’s no more annoying than listening to any steady, single tone for an extended duration. I think these douche-nozzles are making bank off mall management with a bogus ‘service’. Playing Cher over the music system would chase the lil’ miscreants out faster.
well that’s interesting. the tone also seems to have the added effect of causing sixty-two year olds to have irrational fits of rage and conspiracy paranoia.
I can’t so much hear it as feel is as a pressure trying to crush my ossicles.
The noise gets worse after time, for me. The first second it’s just a tone, the second second it’s a bothersome tone, the third it’s irritating, the fourth it seems to take on a second tone (I’m imagining this) and by the fifth I feel intense anxiety.
That is uh, different from my standard intense anxiety.
