Preoccupation
Sometimes I'm too busy thinking about other stuff, and I cannot pay attention to someone talking to me because I blank out. This usually ends with me blankly staring at somebody, or a particular object, and people get weirded out.
Having a closed mind
It's difficult to listen to someone who has different beliefs and opinions that contradict mine. For example, when one of my friends try to convince me the world is flat, I had to restrain myself from tossing food in his face.

The differentiation between comprehensive and discriminative listening is confusing to me. Because in comprehensive listening, I'm listening for meaning, but doesn't that automatically entail the existence of discriminative listening? So why not just collapse discriminative listening into comprehensive listening.
The concept of pseudo-listening is interesting to me. Not that it exists, but that it was even discovered in the first place. It invloves all the signs of an effective and maybe even active listener. But somehow, you educators found it.
