Whistling in the dark

I think it’s time I finally say it: people who whistle are annoying. I don’t want you constantly yelling this high-pitched mess of notes at me, or near me, thank you. I know a lot of people whistle. I’m going to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they just weren’t thinking. But seriously, it’s obnoxious.

First of all, the sound isn’t pleasant. I know it’s marketed as such in Disney movies, but then again, so is lion sex. Not pleasant. Secondly, it’s loud, and travels far distances. You’re not “whistling to yourself”, you’re putting on a show for everyone around you. It’s a show like “Mind of Mencia”. I don’t want to hear you.

People whistle over the theme songs of shows that I’m watching. What the hell would inspire you to do that? I did not fast forward through all the commercials so I could hear your goddamn whistling.

People whistle when I’m trying to think/do work. I don’t want to talk to you or hear your whistling, fool.

People whistle walking down the hallway, and in stairwells. Guess what! Everyone can still hear you. Except since you’re not present they can talk badly about you more easily.

People talking loudly on phones—annoying. But at least they’re talking to someone, and you can learn something from what they’re saying. People who whistle—annoying. With no positive side effects. Stop the madness. For the children.
