My co-workers sing to themselves

[Denmo]

They take a favorite song stuck in their head and start humming and singing it. And they sing stuff I normally would like, but they go and ruin it by singing the lyrics, which would normally be inaudible. Stuff like, 'You made me do what I do so I cut myself and bleed a lot,' (not actual, but on a similar level of emo stupidity).

What makes it worse, is they sing together, or they sing the same song at the same time, but they're both simultaneously in their own world. SO ANNOYING.



Sometimes I sing back. Like one time I started singing What if Smashing Pumpkins Lost His Keys by Stephen Lynch to combat their singing. They just looked at me funny and stopped singing. So that worked.


On a side note: Why the hell are Christian/Country concert-goers so horrible at picking up their own trash?

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

I have two people at my work who constantly talk out loud to themselves, and one is an older woman who, out loud, constantly complains about how things are run or how bad various processes are. Really, all she does is bi*** and moan about everything. If any "normal" person would do this at work, they would probably be reprimanded. But because she's "special," she gets away with it. Once, I even heard her having a conversation with herself....like, not just talking out loud, but "playing" two separate people, and having a conversation by herself between the two.

Also, for the foreseeable future, I'm gonna be subjected to hearing a Hannah Montana "live" song (I realized after hearing it a few times just how God-awful her voice really is...maybe in the studio, they can doctor it, but in this live song, twice she tries to hit this note with her voice, and fails miserably), a REALLY annoying Big and Rich song ("We Like It Loud"), and a Nickelback or Three Doors Down or something song (the video is okay...it's about one person making a difference in the world, featuring Bob Geldof-Live Aid, Nelson Mandela, etc, but the song is horrible). The only thing to offset all the garbage is a Leann Rimes song, and even that's not so good. And it all gets looped every half hour or so.

But there are PSP, Xbox 360, Rock Band, and Little Big Planet commercials, so I guess it all averages out.

Heh I have somone that does that. But I can't understand the language anyhow.

I really don't find it annoying as we usually don't have music. So I just hum to myself.

My dad sings along to music in the car

Sometimes the music he likes isn't so bad, but it becomes unbearable to listen to when he is singing along.

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

I talk to myself a lot.
But not out loud. I tend to almost whisper to myself, but I think that makes me look crazier. A couple of years ago, during chemistry lab, I was talking to myself about about something, and my friends thought I was cursing our professor, and have been doing that all semester!
But I don't sing. I know a lot of people who do, tho.

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

I talk to myself all the time. It's more thinking-out-loud. But still.

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

Almost everyone I sit next to in school sings to themselves, though only one of the people is absolutely interolable. She likes to sing the same christmas song every day, usually for the entire period and off key.

Sometimes I'll be like "What the hell are you doing?" To my allies or my units in shooters and strategy games (respectively) if they are acting retarded. I'll actually say it kinda loud. I'll say "Wrong way idiot!" or something to that affect.

Yeah, that's exactly what I do. But it seems I only think out loud when there's someone close by

I do the same thing, sometimes waking the kids up

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

I have a coworker who sings hymns to herself in chinese all day long. At one point, most of us started listening to our iPods to drown her out until our team lead said "No iPods allowed!"

Thankfully, she also told my coworker to stop singing so much.

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

Do any of your co-workers ever talk to themselves?

[Denmo]

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

Y'know, I bet he would if he didn't have anyone to talk to.

Re: My co-workers sing to themselves

Haha that Smashing Pumpkins joke video is pretty funny.

I actually sing to myself all the time. Sorry...
