Exactly. Plus, if it was someone I know, they'll leave a voice mail, and I'll get back to them.

You have to be monk level with your meditation skill to tune out the sharp sound of a drip, haha

Edit: words

This is completely wrong in my case. I only answer for contacts, everything else goes to voicemail.

that's because water dripping it a singular repetitive noise that is hard to ignore when it's solitary and never ending. Rainfall sort of morphs into relaxing white noise or just amplifies sounds of nature.

It's the antici.....pation of the drips that keeps you annoyed and awake. The randomness of rain is relaxing because it is constant

Another horrible fact, many states in America children can get married, and it happens thousands of times per year. Places like Idaho are bastions for old men marrying little girls. The democrats tried to pass a bill making a mandatory minimum age of 18 for marriage, and the Republicans wholesale rejected it stating they didn't want it to be easier to get an abortion than it is to take a child bride.

Oh man. I can’t wait for nights where it’s raining and my windows open listening to it. I love a summer rainstorm.

I can go to bed easily with a violent storm outside. It’s soothing mostly but some lightning booms can jump scare me occasionally.

Rain is better because it's a fuller more static sound. Easy to tune out.

Drips suck because they are sudden repetitive sharp sound. VERY hard to tune out.

It was never meant to imply inhumane behavior—it’s a statement of futility.

You beat a horse to make it go faster/work harder.

My guess would be because the rain is out of our control. But we could get up and turn off that leaky faucet, but are too comfy to do so, and as a result begrudgingly try to ignore it.
