Always Disturbed - Do Not Disturb Shirt

The sign went on the door at 9:02. At 9:04 someone needed the Wi-Fi password. At 9:07 someone needed to know where the tape went, and at 9:11 the dog filed a formal complaint about the mail carrier. The sign is still on the door. It has been read by no one. I have stopped hanging it and started dressing for the outcome instead. A funny do not disturb shirt for the person who hears 'quick question' forty times a day, owns noise-canceling headphones that cancel nothing, and has made peace with the knock that is always coming. Current status: reachable, regrettably.
THE FINE PRINT
ALWAYS stacked over DISTURBED in tall, heavy, horror-movie capitals, every letter dripping, the drips from the top row running into the bottom one. One ink, cracked and speckled with distress so the shirt shows through. No punctuation, no frame.

ASKING FOR A FRIEND
Why do I hate being interrupted so much?
An interruption breaks your train of thought, and getting back into deep focus can take many minutes, so each one costs far more than the few seconds it lasted. It can also feel like your time or your words count for less to the person cutting in. People who like long stretches of focus tend to notice it most. Counting them does not help; it just gives you a number.
How to tell someone to leave you alone politely?
Be direct and brief: say you need some time to yourself right now and name when you will be free, so it sounds like a schedule rather than a rejection. A closed door, headphones and a slow reply back it up. Skip the long apology, because it invites a negotiation. Most people respect a clear boundary the second time they hear it. Some need the fourth.
How to get peace and quiet at home?
Set a regular quiet window that everyone in the house knows about, give it a clear signal such as a closed door, and handle the predictable requests before it starts: snacks, chargers, the remote. Noise-canceling headphones cover what the plan misses. Expect the first week to be tested hard, usually by someone asking whether you are busy while you are visibly busy.
