Noise Canceling
My brother has some type of noise canceling headphones. They must have gone through some rigorous testing for the amount of noise they cancel. On a daily basis you can find Jason scrunched up in a corner sitting at his computer doing whatever with those darn headphones on. Any type of communication starts like this:
“Hey, Jason.”
…
“JASON.”
…
(slams the desk) “JASON. THE WORLD NEEDS YOU.”
…
He is then ignored and misses out on cookies.
