"When clipping. and I visited the Sub Pop offices for the first time, they showed us their wall of platinum and gold records. William Hutson responded 'Once I put out a tape and sold 100 copies in a week, that's called going noise platinum' and only the clipping guys and I laughed." - @deathbombarc on twitter

Get the noise platinum mug.A television show / movie you’ve seen enough times that you know the plot by heart and it no longer requires active attention to follow, so you watch it while you’re completing other quiet activities, to fill the room with some kind of noise.
Friend: Hey, I thought we were going to study, why is Friends/Seinfield/The Office/Parks and Rec on?
You: I’m not watching it, it’s just background noise, let’s study!

Get the bartground noise mug.Ninja noise is the electrically induced noise as a result of a ninja uncertainty quantum probability state of a room. Lighted rooms tend to have less ninjas than a dark room.
Ninja noise is an electrically induced noise due to the statistical presence of ninjas.
A lighted living room of around 30m^2 has an average estimated amount of 20 ninja's. Dark rooms approach quantum levels that make it impossible to estimate the amount of ninja's mathematically. Because of the statistical backgrounds, one can never tell if ninjas are there. Only the probability due to the quantum ninja wave function. According to the principle of Heisenberg, the position of the ninja and the speed can never be determined at the same time.
