You're absolutely right, there is a weird 'information hazard' component to tinnitus. It's like losing 'the game'.



I lost. You just ruined my longest "winning" streak ever.


It's also a decent but annoying indicator for stress, lack of sleep and fatigue. If it's particularly loud, I know I'm tired.


Happily ignorant of 'the game' reporting in! :^)

(I grew up on 4chan and know better than to check back here for replies. Nice idea though!)


Oh come ON


Was "The Game" just a millennial fad? I don't see it mentioned anywhere anymore.


People just got really good at it. As a meme, the Game is sort of self destructive that way.


Yeah more or less.


I think information might be the wrong word, but there is a big attention component.


I think the commenter you're replying to is just annoyed at having lost the game.


If you're suffering from potentially-unwanted social constructs, you should update your infohazard signature database. https://xkcd.com/391/

No I'm very expensive. Pay up!
