I’ve experienced a couple of arrogant root canal doctors who insisted on playing loud music that they obviously enjoy, while performing a procedure.
This reminded me of it. I never went back to either of them, and they were arrogant.
I was allowed to take a tape when I had my wisdom teeth pulled. I kept saying “louder” until it was at full volume. I was wearing headphones, and they said “We can hear it.” Side 1: Tangerine Dream’s soundtrack to “Sorcerer,” side 2: The Doors’ “American Prayer.”
