Between that age, the cartilage in your earhole has yet to harden, causing that irritating ringing noise. Or some shit like that.

SO THATS WHAT IT WAS
I was wondering why the hell my ears were always ringing in elementary school, and then it went away. That's really interesting.

Greiger's is actually correct...  sadly enough.  The emotional circumstance processor is still turned on, with a randomly rolled up personality, but they can't express themselves or take control...  they can only cry.

 As far as I know, that has nothing to do with cartilage, and the cartilage certainly isn't the source of the sound. Tube-based TVs, some types of lights, and now (since an inventor noticed his child complaining about the noise) some cellphone ringtones, all make that high pitched noise. For some reason, I can still hear that extremely high pitched range of sound, giving me a decent awareness of the subject, and making the downstairs TV unbearable.

Imagine a cool peice of sky-blue and milk-white marble about 3cm by 2cm and by 0.5cm, containing a tiny 2mm malacolite crystal. Now imagine the miles of metamorphic rock it's embedded in that no pick or chisel will ever touch. Then, imagine that those miles will melt back into their mantle long before any telescope even refracts an image of their planet. The watchers will be so excited to have that image too.

I still hear the whining of televisions and car brakes that few others can, but it used to be that even when things were completely still I'd hear it. Probably just the wiring or something, super-high pitch sound that I've since lost the ability to hear.

I can still hear some of the lower-frequency ultrasounds. I'm used to telling whether or not a phone charger is working by listening for its transformer's whine. The charger for my DeWalt cordless drill/powered screwdriver is downright annoying.

I generated a world and while looking around it to see if I liked it I found some cool names.
First an island called The Sacrificial Continent, south of it was The Disemboweled Island.
The largest area was called something like The Stormy Continent of Searching. While I was playing the game seemed to call it something else, but I can't remember what.
In the south-west corner there was a group of mountains called The Tooth of Comets.
Farther north-east there were two deserts, The Desert of Skulls and The Desert of Burning.
There was also a jungle called The Organized Jungle. Makes me wonder if God suffers from OCD.

Sometimes, I generate worlds just to read their interesting histories...and often found some weirdness as well.

Some odd forgotten beasts:

Some cool dwarven deities:

I had an artifact called "The Rewards of Flushing".   Rewards are always nice right?  Well this artifact was a casket...

Edit:  Just after I posted I remembered this was adventure mode discussion and not dwarf mode, oh well, its still funny
