Am I going psychotic?
Edited on Wed Sep-17-08 10:42 PM by Alcibiades
I am hearing very faint, light jazz on the computer headphones I have plugged into the speakers on my computer. I'm not streaming any audio, and am not running anything other than Firefox.

Is it possible to accidentally get radio reception, or have I lost it?

1. You just made me realize something
I'm wearing headphones and I'm not listening to anything at all. That's kind of strange too.

I don't think you have lost it at all (unless the words to the song are telling you to kill, kill, kill.)

2. You have been infected by a worm.
And, that worm's name is Kenny G.

To prevent it spreading and destroying civilization as we know it, destroy your computer with a large mallet.

3. That's happened to me before a few times.
Most of the time the explanation was simple... flash ad in the background that had sound or something like that. But every now and then I never find the explanation.

Maybe we're all going mad.

4. I've had that happen too sometimes...
I figured it had something to do with my ears being covered by the headphones and my mild case of tinnitus.

6. It's still doing it
I wear the headphones late at night so I don't wake up the household watching the various amusing videos here on DU. I can only hear it if I crank the volume waaaay up, and even then it's faint. Right now, there is what sounds like a BBC reporter. I must somehow be pulling in a public radio station.

7. You have Jazz Psychosis.
I hope at least it's something really good, and not lite jazz.
