Next time your in a room with a television on, and a bunch of people are talking about a movie you dont want to know the ending to, watch the tv and see how hard it is to be able to remember what the program was about. While they talk about the film, if you can concentrate on the tv and shut them out totally you are one super strong concentrator. I had the worst time doing it (maybe cause i was high, but it was sooo hard) I think it was just real hard cause i was high.

Man I can tune anything out.....last night I was at my homegirls house and the fan on her computer kept makin a loud ass noise! After 20 minutes of it being loud she yells......."I wish that damn thing would shut up". I had forgotten all about it even makin noise I was so "INTO" what I was doin!

At work, I deal with the public all day long........All I hear is talk talk talk talk about sisters uncles daughters cousins babys momma's cat's and so on bullshit so I've learned how to tune shit out...........its called SELECTIVE HEARING!

i mean more like......

You want to know the movies ending, but you know if you hear it you may not want to see the movie. So you got to try harder to tune out the important conversation.

It was hard for me to do that.
