There's an ambient/drone band in your ceiling space.

Be glad it's not an alt-country band.

Nine times out of ten it's an electric razor, but every once in a while...it's a dildo. Of course it's company policy never to, imply ownership in the event of a dildo... always use the indefinite article a dildo, never your dildo.
