Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

Something interesting that happened to you
Something humourous that happened to you
Something frustrating that happened to you
A quick question
A request for recommendations
Pictures of your pet
A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

What would your ideal hold 'music' be?

I've always hated these things and think music is a terrible choice as it can only ever reinforce the 'middle of the road' tastes (something I have big problems with in NZ).

But the ringer sound just reduces your brain to mush after a few minutes as well...

Would silence work, with the occasional 'you're _n_th in the queue' update? I think that's my best choice

Not silence, then people will think they got cut off.

Ambient and soothing sounds. Like waves on a beach or something.

Yes! Beach waves and bird noises or something? Sounds great!
