Pacman Hearing is where a group of people are talking about one thing then move on and start talking about something else and then one of the group starts talking about the first thing as if no one had mentioned that conversation at all.
Max: hey did you watch the England game yesterday?
Tom: yeah it was good, that was an amazing goal
Max : i know great goal, any one else do much yesterday?
James: i watched the England game, they scored a sick goal !

When you're in a zone and you're only able to hear what your mind is focused on. Others think you're ignoring them when they talk but the truth is they failed to gain your attention first.
My wife swears I was ignoring her but I have selective hearing, my attention was on the TV and I was completely unaware she was talking to me.

The ability that humans have, especially males, to hear selectively only what serves their interests, being conveniently deaf to what they don't like or can use.
"I asked John to take the trash out and then get a beer from the fridge; of course he went straight for the beer: he has selective hearing".
