Post your answer in the LEAVE A COMMENT section below. Then scroll back up and see what I have to complain about. Or you can wait until afterward . . . I’m not the boss of you. You know what? Don’t write anything for all I care! But silence can be disturbing?

What is the most disturbing sound in the world?

It should be obvious that I have not heard ALL the sounds in the world—not even all the sounds perceivable by the best human ear. Thus, the question must be interpreted as the most disturbing I’ve heard, or that I can imagine hearing, would it not? That’s not a rhetorical question; answer me! I can’t hear you. Anyway . . . I’ll go with the potentially disturbing sound of a one-handed deaf woman clapping as she witnesses a tree falling in the remote, otherwise desolate forest. Perhaps a sound so magical, so ephemeral, that it may not even exist. Can you imagine it? If so, perhaps you’re the one who’s disturbed.
