Well, last Saturday night we went bowling. I was having fun, until someone next to us got up to tell us that we should practice bowling etiquette. What the... is that about? How do you practice etiquette when your bowling, honestly? I didn't know that bowling was so much like golf. Now you have to take extra precautions just to make sure that surrounding bowlers are comfortable? I hate those kind of people. If they can't concentrate with distraction, even as minor as someone in another lane bowling at the same time as them in bowling, or someone else talking at an indoor level, on the next hole over in golf. They shouldn't be aloud to complain, I mean if they can't concentrate, it's their own darn fault. This is all I have to say to those people: Go cry to your mom.
I will bowl however I want, and whenever I want, because I can't be distracted by stupid things like that. And if I screw up, when something like that happens, you can be sure that I am not going to blame someone else. It's not like they threw the bowling ball in the gutter or duffed the golf ball only about 15 yards. I am the only one who can be blamed for something like that.
I was trained in wrestling. You see, we wore headgear so that we didn't get "cauliflower ear" so it was easy to zone out anything else but the match. For something as simple as bowling or golf, being able to zone out everything else should be incredibly easy (even if you don't have something to muffle the sound out) that you shouldn't have to think about it. In fact, I believe that the more you try not to think about something the more that you do, so don't think about it, go with it. For example, if I said not to think about the color green, it would be hard not to if you concentrated on not thinking about green. See what I mean. Well that concludes this hour of "What's wrong with the world today?"

Well...nevermind, it's not worth it. Go on thinking whatever you want to think.
I think you just have to understand that everyone operates a little bit differently. Maybe you don't have a problem blocking things out, but other people have different opinions and it's all just part of being polite and living in peace and harmony. You have to be respectful of other people. Just because that's not how you are, or even most people, doesn't mean that you should demean something that some person believes in. You sound incredibly stuck-in-your ways and stuborn. Why not just be polite?
I am stubborn, but i do respect others, I am quiet when people are golfing, and I do wait for people to bowl that are next to me (now that I've been told to), I just don't think I should have to, that's all.
