Would you rather have silence or noise all day?

[Deleted member 49125]

Some people like the TV or music playing throughout the day. I prefer no noise. What do you prefer?

Silence for sure, otherwise can't concentrate.

I like having music play throughout the day as music helps me be calm.

100% silence for most of the day and release and hear what you are watching. Even that gets made people in their cars going up and down the street.

Absolute silence unnerves me, I keep waiting for the axe to fall.

But regular silence is good. It isn’t really silent at all. A little birdsong, the rustle of leaves in the trees, a dog barking far away, a clock ticking, something in the house creaks, the quiet snoring of the cat on my lap, etc.

That is the kind of silence I like, and will prefer 90% of the time over any kind of noise, which includes organized noise such as music or talk. Those I also enjoy at times, though less frequently than regular silence.

Noise. Lack of silence will quickly tank my mood from lack of stimulation if nothing else.

I require a lot of silence. Even when I watch the tv. I don't like it blaring loud. So I keep the volume down.
