You get paid $5000 per day for the rest of your life (matching inflation), but the American Kitchen Nightmares editors get to omnisciently and in real time control the sound effects in your life. Only you hear them, but you can never tune them out. Do you accept?

Yes I want a home in California big enough for a family. I don’t see any other way of accomplishing that.

You'll just have to turn up the volume on Cbat.

I guess I'll just cry through the sound effects with the $1.8 million dollars a year I'll have.

I don't watch the show. What kind of sounds/music are we dealing with here?

[–] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 10 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Here's an exaggerated tasting platter for you. I'll add that it's not that exaggerated (except for the boom at 1:36; I never heard that in the show).

Not the gonna lie, if the ominous music starts BEFORE I make a mistake or do something dumb in my everyday life, it would actually be helpful lol. The boom would work after dropping an epic response to win an argument, although I'll be the only one to hear it. The pump-up music would also be great when I need an adrenaline push.

Damn, even if it plays while the shit hits the fan it would be pretty helpful - i'm not the best at reading social cues.

If I can block the sounds by wearing headphones I would take it in a heartbeat but even if I cant block them, well, I would still do it because I have tinnitus 🤷

[–] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 15 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

It's a purely psychological thing inside your brain; it will cut through the tinnitus. You can't loophole your way around it; you have to hear the sounds at the same noticeable volume a person with normal hearing would.

I guess, I ll suffer with the money and wipe my tears with it. 🥲
