Random question of the day

When people hear beeping noises, especially alarms of any kind, why do they often feel compelled to mimic them?

  1. Hmm...I guess there are two kinds of people in the world...those who mimick noises and those who don't. I don't.

  2. I'll admit, I'm the noise maker kind. It's mostly in my head, but just like you can get an "ear worm" song, I get that with alarm clocks, timers, all the alarms at work, car alarms... It's strange.
