Oh @sunshine45, I LOVE your "what do you see" post. LOL At first, of course, I saw Yanny, but then noticed how the Y looked like an L and saw Laurel. That's terrific! (I still don't HEAR Laurel, though.)

But if anyone said that he was sleeping, he'd wake immediately and deny it. One evening I wanted to borrow his car, but he was asleep. I discussed my not wanting to take it without his permission, and not wanting to wake him, with my mother, who was sitting on the same couch. We were speaking at a normal conversational volume. Then I had a brainstorm... I WHISPERED "He's sleeping." He woke up right on cue and said "I'm awake." I said "Okay, can I borrow your car?" Goal achieved without the guilt of waking him!
@ItsME LoL!! My dad was the same way.
@mistriTsquirrel. I am laughing because my dad was the same way also!!!!!!

I find this stuff very interesting
@lkat, does it have any relationship to how well you hear? I can hear someone opening a bag of potato chips a mile away!

@Jordan2 I'm not sure though I know that some people suffer from high frequency hearing loss. I'm the same as you as far as sometimes hearing more things than I want to. It can be really annoying! There used to be a woman that sat in a cube a little ways outside of my office and every day she'd eat a bag of chips with her lunch. It drove me mad! Even though she chewed with her mouth shut I swear I heard every crunch as if she was sitting right next to me.

@FlowerBear Yeah, it may seem kind of stupid, but I think there are a few things that can be learned from it.
A lot of people seem to think that their way of perceiving the world is the only way...or the only right way. Sometimes people need a reminder that not everyone sees--or hears--things the same way they do...and that's okay.
