I think I can hear ants. People probably think I’m crazy. Like if you bend down and get your face really close to their trail. It’s like a buzzing sound. Like static on an old TV. Creepy as fuck.

You're the first person I've ever heard say you can hear buzzing sound of ants. I don't doubt you, because why would you lie about something like that, but I would like to hear more people agree they can hear this and I want to read a scientific study.

That person is a liar!! I listen to ants all the time and the only sound they make is smooth jazz.

Oh my bad, I'm hard of hearing. Been listening to too many aunts.
