Emotional trauma, micro trauma?
Emotional trauma is weird.
One time, at a furmeet, there was a karaoke set up and some people had been singing with it. A friend nudged me that we should sing the ending theme to Red Dwarf. So we got up on the little stage and started to sing, and not even ten seconds in someone ran up to the stage and yanked the microphone out of my hand.
That fucking sucked.
Years later and I still can't listen to that ending them without those sucky feelings coming back. 1/2

@renbymon What an absolute shitball. Talk about completely missing the point of karaoke.

@renbymon Wow, what a shitty thing to do. *hugs tight*
Emotional trauma, micro trauma?
@BridleTimeout Yeah. Like I won't think about it for ages and then, like this morning, I'll end up hearing the music and all those sucky feelings come back.
Also weirdly it's kinda fascinating that an event like that is traumatic at all. I guess that's why I try to just let people be nowadays.

Also I can't do karaoke in public anymore, all because someone who I didn't even know felt that I personally needed to stop singing.
