Sometimes, when I’m deep in thought I forget to turn on music in the car. My partner is convinced that i do it on purpose to piss them off. Really, my brain just sucks at multitasking.

So, I’d probably ride there in silence, but only because I forgot to turn on the music.

Sometimes I can't be bothered.

i like to listen to music while drawing but sometimes i start in silence, and i'm there thinking "gotta turn on the music" but i never actually do because i'm focused on drawing

Pedal to the metal and no distractions. Only the silent rage.

I think it would depend on how confident I am that I'd be able to beat the kidnappers.

If it's like inept comedy movie kidnappers and I feel like I'm on my way to deliver an ass kicking, then yes I'd play pump-up music.

If it's scary KGB/ISIS kidnappers and I'm probably on my way to perform a well-intentioned yet ultimately futile gesture where I'll likely get killed before I even get through the door, then probably no tunes for that one.

Who is your wife that she got kidnapped by comedy movie kidnappers?

Edit: sorry for the roast

Channing Tatum in a really nice wig. Op is played by Jonah Hill.

Obviously I listen to music. Without listening to the DOOMSLAYER track, how do i do what I am about to do?

[–] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Absolutely. I'm listening to Sabaton and driving at 80 mph

[–] nhoad@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago

I enjoyed the use of present tense in your comment

*Spends 30 minutes trying to find a song*
What? I don't do good under pressure. Oh, maybe Under Pressure... hmm... nah... I mean it's good, but thematically isn't matching 100%.

[–] tdawg@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

No. My single minded attention would only register it as noise

[–] gustulus@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins would be my vibe I guess

This is the only correct answer here. If you wouldn't have posted it I would have.

One way or another by Blondie

[–] PmMeFrogMemes@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

yes and I'd probably still sit in the driveway for a few min figuring out what I want to put on

[–] 567PrimeMover@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago

scrolling idly on the phone

"What are you doing? We have your wife motherfucker!"

"Oh, just trying to figure out what music to kill you to"

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'd call the police first.

Why? Does your local PD have really good music taste or something?

Fortunate Son

[–] KreekyBonez@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

I would just get NPR on, at the risk of hearing a really interesting segment of Radio Lab and having a driveway moment and sitting through the conclusion right as I get to the location.

[–] Laalisaaa042@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

Team America theme

[–] Aagje_D_Vogel@lemdro.id 7 points 2 years ago

I'd listen to this absolute banger to get in the mood.

[–] saltnotsugar@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Caramelldansen would be blaring as I pull up.

The sound of the TiAL MVR 44mm External Wastegate of my turbocharged K20 is music.

Nero - Doomsday

Has some "me against the world" vibes to it. Also, it's hard as fuck. Perfect kidnapper beatdown music.
