When I was younger (much younger) I would have been in the "what explosion?" category. Alas, I am older and I find noise much more distracting. I find as my hearing deteriorates background sounds become more distracting. I find that even listening to music while reading is difficult. If I want to read then I want silence (or as close to it as I can get in the city.) I find "white" noise very irritating. One of my computers (a Pentium D that was given to me) has a very noisy but average fan. All my other computers were designed to be as quiet as possible. It irritates me when I try to read (or think.) It's even worse when trying to listen to music.
