    I don’t know if this is necessarily an unpopular opinion, but I am forced to disagree, particularly with restaurants. I have fairly severe misophonia, and that music is the only thing that allows me to eat in public, or generally be in many public spaces.

    If the sounds that people make while eating (or a lot of the sounds people make at all) aren’t covered up, it isn’t just a shudder like “nails on a chalkboard” for me. I will literally go into fight or flight mode and sprint out of the area.

    So I, for one appreciate the constant noise.
