How do you deal with noisy neighbors/surrounding while reading.
Like other great geniuses, like Kant, Schopenhauer etc. I find any kind of noise - except nature sounds like birds - disrupting. I find human sounds, especially talking, absolutely disturbing and driving me nuts. As a subhuman living in an apartment building and one of the neighbors is an old fuck who watch her retarded TV programs like 10 hours a day, it is not super loud, but loud enough to disturb my reading and rest.
How do you cope? White/brown noise, ear plugs, music, public libraries?
