Why this one divides people

An alarm sound is a tiny piece of music you never chose, played at your most defenceless moment, so of course people hate it personally. The shrill beep is the obvious villain, loud enough to startle and ugly enough to resent. But the song once loved is the crueller trap, because it quietly ruins a track you liked and can never fully reclaim. The default tone earns a quieter, more universal contempt, simply because it is everyone's first and last sound. Somewhere a radio voice is already talking before you are ready to exist.
