You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.
You should be a mayor!
Cleaning the house
Cooking. Everyone knows: When there's a dance party going on in the kitchen mealtime is coming.
Taking any form of public transportation. The sheer noise and bustle is way too much for me without headphones and a good playlist.
I honestly don't mind it normally, but I need the noise cancelling headphones for the losers that blast their shitty soundcloud-tier music off their phone speaker
Washing dishes
Nothing, maybe except for listening to music if you want.
Writing documentation
Working out with weights
Working out. I hate the silence otherwise, usually podcasts or music depends on mood and exercise.
Not going insane while driving
Fill in the blank: I cannot complete the task(s) of __________ without listening to music.
Meta. Spooky.
Dancing
Showering
Vacuuming/housework, and working on cars.
Sex
what? why? how does the music help? what happens if you don't listen to music?
You can focus on the music and maybe people don't like sex sounds. I guess π€·ββοΈ
Or it is a boring task and the music is the most entertaining part of it.
Coding. I need to get into the "zone" where I just type it all out and that somehow doesn't work in complete silence.
Yes.
mowing the yard without noise cancelling ear buds. it's way too loud without them. but the music gets me to a meditative state. i look forward to it every week.
Anything. Music makes everything easier to do for some reason
Runnngi / jogging
Being an Uber driver. Literally un-doable for me without Spotify.
Shopping, especially when walking to the supermarket.
Going for a walk in general, actually.
Mowing the lawn
life
Taking a crap. Here Comes the Boom by P.O.D. gets the boys from the south movinβ
Exercise on the elliptical. Ideally I find songs with a moving tempo, but not too fast, and I can sync up my elliptical running to the beat.
Sleeping
I can't listen to music without listening to music
