Things we cannot be bothered by anymore

I cannot be bothered with/by people who are constantly preaching that the actual sound of the recording that is being reproduced by my system should not matter and that it should be "all about the music" and that because this is how they feel about listening it is the only correct way to feel about listening and therefore the way everyone should feel about listening.

I cannot bother with listening to horrible recordings/masterings/mixes of great music that come out of my speakers sounding like hammered dogcrap.

Totally understand the sentiment. However, I just replaced my jurassic-era DAC, and I have to be bothered again. CDs I thought were good now are meh. Some that I thought were merely good are excellent. It's not all for the worst - I'm rediscovering stuff I didn't remember I had ever listened to!

Sure is difficult to follow a thread when referenced posts are gone.

I wish I was not bothered by WalMart shoppers who appear to be oblivious of the fact that there are other shoppers who would like to traverse the aisle or store exit that has been obstructed by what has effectively became a human road block.

I feel kind of bad because because earlier today I was attempting to leave Walmart and an employee was engaged in some type of conversation with a shopper who was sitting in one of those battery operated shopping carts that some shoppers use to drive down aisles in and they were both completely blocking access to the exit of the store, and I am sure I came off as being rude.
