Computer noises are the focus in the festival setting, it’s not a distraction.

Pen clicks are little momentary brain erasers that rip the attention you’re so desperately trying to focus away from the thing you’re focusing on, and now you have to struggle constantly to get it back with each one.

Pen clicks would be no problem if you were intentionally focusing on someone clicking their pen.

So thaaaat's why I like clicking pens as a fidget but don't love it when others do it in my proximity.

People who don't understand my aversion to noisy environments sometimes can't understand why I'm ok with loud music festivals. You nailed it.
