Can we talk about the guy on the 8:05 bus who brought a full keyboard to practice on

I mean, the whole lower deck was just this weird, gentle clacking sound for like 20 minutes straight, and idk, maybe it's just me but it was honestly way better than someone's loud phone call.

Honestly, I'd take that over bad bus smell any day. I got stuck next to a guy once who was quietly doing sudoku on his phone, and it was weirdly calming to watch. Just the focus of it, you know? That keyboard guy was probably in his own little world, and at least it wasn't noise for the sake of noise.

People get so mad about small public annoyances but miss the quiet focus around them. It's like we're trained to notice the loudest thing in the room. There's a whole other layer of calm happening if you just look for it.

My own focus is so bad I'd probably just start trying to guess the song. At least it's a change from the usual bus soundtrack of someone's tinny speaker.
