WB Rants: Loudness.
Werebelushi:
Well...it's been quite a while since I did another one of these isn't it? Indeed it has but now i'm back for another werebelushi rant and today's rant is about that stupid little rule known as the 'Not Too Loud' rule. I understand why they do this in libraries and hospitals and other public places, but for the life of me I don't get why they have to apply this to their own homes, I mean sure...if you have really young kids or have relatives staying over or something I can see why you'd do that, but here's the thing...those people are loud too, the kids are loud and chatty and sometimes scream to get attention, if they're teenagers they listen to extremely loud music either on the PC or on their phones - granted they have headphones, but still...and relatives can be obnoxious and noisy too.
'Not too loud'? I don't know if you know this but your parents are the LOUDEST damn thing in the entire house, your mother is always loudly listening to whatever new age music group she likes while doing yoga which is supposed to be a PEACEFUL and QUIET activity, look, mom I love ya...but please close the damn door when you go to do your yoga routines. I DON'T want to walk in only to be blasted with the 'soothing' sounds of Tibetan chanting or throat singing and for pete's sake, warn me before you go and do it. Also before come barging into my lair like some kind of idiot, at least knock or ask if you are allowed in. Some of us like our privacy, you know.
Oh and can we talk about another loud thing that parents do? Your mother also not only LOUDLY bursts into your room without permission but also she LOUDLY screams and raises her voice whenever she has arguments, oh boy and those arguments? They may only be a couple of minutes long in length but it feels like hours. And they're so obnoxious and stupid too, and even over the pettiest of things to argue about.
For example...mom has a particular way of sorting out the clothing, dad just thinks that it's pointless and just sorts them in whatever way he wants. Mom can't stand dad being difficult, dad can't stand mom's shrill screams. Between dad's awful bellowing shouts that go into full Large Ham mode and mom's terrible screams and outbursts that make her sound like she's about to turn into a demon...they're both equally as bombastic in volume, and it's unbearable. Mom, dad....either seek professional help regarding these nasty little issues of yours or better yet, don't even argue with each-other in the first place and agree to see eye to eye. I don't like seeing you fight and I don't like hearing it either.
Do you really think that nobody can hear you two having a hissy-fit? Well I can and for pete's sake, keep it down you two or just argue in private. There are other people that live here, you know! And then there's your mother's other annoying loudness related habit, she's a chat-a-holic and as such she's always talking on the phone to her stupid friends or her equally as moronic significant others. Oi, mom! Turn your damn phone off when i'm in the room, either that or have your conversation in another room.
Talk about breaking your own rules...yes, and don't forget how you needlessly plug in noisy appliance after noisy appliance? You tell me not to be loud but yet you should be telling yourself that because your loudness is obnoxious. I love the both of you but not when you do this. And can we talk about dear ol dad and his nausea inducing noises? First of all, he snores...LOUDLY! Dad, close the door of your damn bedroom. I don't want to have to listen to your horrible snoring sounds.
It gets even worse when dad gets sick and he makes these awful sounds that are supposed to be deep breathing but it sounds hoarse and it also sounds like some hell-beast is lurking in the darkness, for the longest time I suspected that he had some kind of nasty parasite inside him that was slowly turning him into a monster. You thought his lack of volume control BEFORE his operation was awful? Well post-operation dad sounds like he's being overtaken by a virus that's turning him into a monster, I swear I wasn't even able to sleep at night because of this. I couldn't sleep because of dad's monstrous grunts and snores, and to be honest i'm glad I don't have to put up with those anymore.
Since when does talking to one self count as loud? Isn't that a quiet/introvert thing and not in the least bit loud? If it's just the two of us in one house with no other family members...then doesn't that mean it's the opposite of loud? Honey, if I got any quieter I would have to change the name of my show from Werebelushi Rants to The Whispering Werebelushi or That Werebelushi Who Can't Be Heard.
I've got a new rule....the 'not too loud' rule can only be applied in your own home if it's your parents or relatives making the noise or if you are babysitting a little child, it cannot be applied if you are talking to yourself or if you're one of the only people in a room. So please, drop the stupid rule in that case. How about YOU keep it down? How about YOU! If everything and everyone else in the building is LOUD...then clearly you're the one who shouldn't be trying to tell them to keep their volume down. 'Not so loud'? When IS it okay to be loud, huh? If it's not when other people are coming over to do repairs or fix the cable or whatever and if it's not okay to do it when you have annoying relatives staying over and if it's not okay to do it in general even though there are only two people in the room? When IS it okay to be loud?
That rule needs to be abolished. Yeah, nice try mom...but I can hear you LOUDLY talking to your sister-in-law, or the work-men or whoever is with you at the moment...the doors are freaking open and I can hear all that you are saying, don't think that you blabbering on about what my school life and earlier career was like isn't going to be heard because guess what, I FREAKING HEARD IT. I swear, for someone who tries to push 'not too loud', you sure are a blabbermouth. You seem to yap on about everything I do. And you complain non-stop, you're like Chevy Chase. And that's not a compliment, if you know what Chevy Chase is like behind the scenes you'd know that he's known for being a bit of an asshole and a loud-mouth too. The guy hates just about everything he has been in.
Mom, I LOVE you but sometimes you drive me bonkers with your lack of volume control and lack of respect for personal space. You have given me so many wonderful things but damn it mom...do you have to be so loud and obnoxious all the time? Even when you do yoga it's loud and obnoxious, you seem to have that music blasting at a volume that is pretty much overkill. Remember your opera phase? I sure do. I wasn't able to get anything done thanks to you and you infatuation with Pavarotti.
At least when I listen to music or do my work I close the door so I can do it in peace, you on the other hand don't even close the door even when you're in the bathroom. Mom, there's a little thing called 'privacy', you should give it a go. You are terrible at sticking to your own rules and you contradict your own rules as well and break them, yeah sure....accuse me of being loud while at the same time having a conversation with the pets or gossiping to your dumb sister, now tell me...who's the loud one here? It's you.
Honey....I've been quiet most of my life except when upset, I don't even make these rants in video form. You don't need to be accusing me of being loud when you yourself break your own rule. Maybe if you closed the doors once and a while, then maybe I just wouldn't have to put up with this. I'm That Werebelushi In The Shades reminding you all, if you're complaining about things being too loud, then possibly you might be the loudest one in the room and are too ignorant to realize it.
