Gah!! Stop!

I have a beyond bad reaction to gum snappers. can't handle it. The noise is like hammers in my head. I'm really sensitive to noises in general (I believe that puts me on the spectrum, doesn't it?)

Anyway, the VP with the office that my desk is near is just chomping away. Full on mouth open snapping and smacking. I'm about to jab a pencil in my eardrums just to get it to stop. 

Re: Gah!! Stop!

  • Yes, you have Aspergers. I'm sorry to be the one who has to deliver this armchair diagnosis to you.
  • I'm this way with windchimes. One time, when I was in TX the people in apt above me put like 16 out. I heard them even when I wasn't at home. They drove me nuts. I called and complained and first was told there was nothing to be done. I asked for a manager, who gave me the same run around. I said, they are a noise violation. They make "music" constantly, so by this rationale, I should be able to keep a drumkit on my patio and teach myself to play drums at night! They were taken down the next day.
