White Noise is the sound of Ethnic groups protesting Racial Injustice, which is ignored by the Whites.
The white people didn't do anything, when the anti-racist protest was underway, they just heard a lot of white noise.
Using the 'Golden Girls' TV show as an aid in falling asleep, similar to listening to white noise.
I fall asleep every night listening to Golden Girls, it's my Betty White Noise
The sound of a one-way conversation a white girl has with you that is so uninteresting that it merely becomes static in the back of your mind, while you nod and pretend to pay attention.
Girl: My iPhone broke, and my mum won't pay to fix it, which sucks because now I can't afford my daily mocha-chino latte from Starbucks...... blah blah blah
Guy: *thinks* Man, this chick just doesn't fucking shut up, I'll nod and hope she doesn't realise what she's saying is just white girl noise.
This is a racial slur, because it associates individual personalities and traits with a skin color.
It is both positive and negative:
(1) Adaptive: flexible, able to switch to a different strategy in a new environment.
(2) Gaussian: (named after Carl Friedrich Gauss, a mathematician) vaguely implies above-average mathematical abilities or intelligence.
(3) Noise: (pejorative) nuisance, something to be ignored. A neutral synonym would be "dissenting opinion". However, in some social settings, being a dissenting voice imparts a sense of snobbishness.
Not to be confused with Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN), which is a mathematical concept deeply rooted in digital signal processing and probability theory. The correct interpretation of the four words of AWGN are:
(1) Additive (not to be misspelled addictive) means addition (the sum of two numbers).
(2) White means (i) consisting of all frequencies (ii) uncorrelated. This meaning stems from the physical phenomemon that a white light is formed from a mixture of monochromatic lights of various frequencies.
(3) Gaussian refers to the Gaussian Distribution, also known as a Normal Distribution, a concept in probability.
As used in bumper stickers, tshirt. Misuse of "Adaptive White Gaussian Noise" may result in disciplinary actions from school.
When self-important white people won’t stop talking, so they just fade into the background and you don’t notice it.
“This guy over there at the bar needs to take a breath. He hasn’t stopped talking.”
“Oh, really? I didn’t notice. Just white noise.”
2020 Presidential Debate, the three old white men arguing with each other.
Meaningless sounds in the background that you unintentionally ignore or intentionally pretend to not exist.
"Sorry for the white noise. I didn't notice I left the TV on."
"No that's fine. It helped me fall asleep."
