Oblivious
Neighbor is powerwashing my house again. I already asked him to control it, and he did for a while. He's just oblivious. In the name of civility I won't ask him again. It wouldn't do any good. Time for earplugs.
Later: The last time I needed earplugs was 20 years ago, when the neighbor in the same house kept a constantly barking dog next to my window. (Different resident now, but same problem.) Fortunately I didn't throw away the package of earplugs. They're still fresh after 20 years in the package. And my muscle memory is still fresh after 20 years in the cerebellum. As soon as the fingers touched the earplugs, the fingers rolled up the plugs into the peculiar shape to fit the ear canal, pulled back the pinnas, and inserted the plugs.
The "evolutionists" who insist that energy efficiency determines fitness are crazy. The cerebellum stores thousands of procedures without losing a millisecond of the timing or a millimeter of the motions. The energy required to maintain all of this DRAM, most of which will never be used again, is totally wasted by "evolution" standards. It's not wasted by God's standards. God wants us to be ready in case we need the skill again, or in case somebody else needs the skill again.
