Nandidiri ako tuwing makakita o makarinig ng Pinoy content sa ibang phone. Ang sakit sa tenga.

In fairness to Pinoy content, it's not just because it's Pinoy that irritates me, it's the sound effects they use on top of the irritating humor that they inevitably use.

Di ko rin alam kung bakit naiirita ako tho. Maybe it's some kind of a Pavlovian thing where I've associated those sound effects with irritating content, or it is the sound effects pushing what might otherwise be tolerable content past the line and into irritating territory.

Whenever I heard them, I felt like I'm developing myself with misophonia, and this is me enjoying white noise for meditation or whenever I'm bored.

pati na rin sa local TV, especially GMA.

And radio.

Have to remind myself that one's irritant maybe another person's sense (and quality level) of humor.

I'd never listened to local radio since I subscribed to Spotify a decade ago, until I landed on Apple Music with their free radios (mostly mainstream and featured artists lang naman). Haha

I used to listen to a lot of AM radio in my childhood (lalo na kung "brownout", lol!), but recently, I'm the same as well. However, in times of disaster (typhoons, earthquakes, or man-made emergencies), I sometimes find myself looking for news coverathrough my cellphone's radio app.

Call me old-fashioned or whatever, but iba pa rin kasi ang feeling nung makakarinig ka ng breaking news reports sa radyo eh.

Other than that, my local radio listening has gone down to almost nil in the past handful of years.

When my favorite FM radio station (Pure FM, from the province. Literally pure pop songs and sometimes classic pop every 9PM) shut down, dun na ako gradually nawalan ng interes sa radyo.
