Minor complaints thread (13 Viewers)

This sewer pipe is a lot deeper than I'd been led to believe. It's going to take all day, unless the humidity and flies get too much.
 
This evening I learned about reaper's spectrogram view for tracks and turned it on to find my newly recorded tracks have a band of high-frequency noise running through them. I did notice it in my headphones today (and in the past from time to time) but I figured/assumed it wasn't getting recorded but it was, the fucking thing.

Below you can see the moment where, after a little trial and error, I unplugged the culprit, THE ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH! There are still several other low level bands of noise, I'm not sure if I can hear those or if it's just my tinnitus.

I don't really care, minor complaint.
 
Most people will be aware of stuff up to 16khz while not hearing it totally. In audition you can highlight and delete something like that pretty easy rather than eq it. Lots of devices have a frequency in them that is used for functions to reference off, like drills often have a 4k that they just emit to reference the motor control from. It's a noisy world.
 
My hearing is still pretty good on the high end and I can hear a lot shrill unpleasant noises quite well, I got my ears tested. I have a big dip in the mid-range though, it's genetic apparently.
 
I could here old cathode TVs on standby when I went into a room. Not sure whether flatscreens are silent or that I’ve lost that part of my hearing now.

I've the house to myself so naturally I was picking up cans to set myself up for a David Lynch style evening. In the car park at the shop the cans packet failed and they rolled in a few different directions. Using amateur soccer skills I got them out of now waiting cars way relatively quickly. Went to load them into the back seat and one exploded all over my 👖, inside the car seats etc. Bought those because it looked like I was getting one more than another brand for the money. Now sitting here soaked in beer after the drive home with a clean up operation on my hands.
 
Left my house keys in my parents’ earlier, now I’m locked out of my apartment and trying not to have a toilet emergency given that I had habaneros on a roll at lunch time.
Suffice to say I really hope my housemate hurries the fuck up and comes home from work
well...did we have 'an accident'?
