Selective hearing is a bit like WHEN UR DUMB ASS PARENTS call ur name and u say what and they don't say anything till u go to them.
Parent:"Jimmy!! "
Jimmy:what!!
*silence*
Jimmy:WHAT MOM/DAD!!
*Silence again
(This is literally selective hearing)

Being so obsessed or engaged in a certain activity that you stay up all night, only being jolted back to reality when you hear the singing of the morning birds outside.
He played COD so long he started hearing the birds.
They were making out all night until they started hearing the birds.

Hearing what you want too

Ben: uhh. I don't think this long distance relationship is going to work out.
Matt: (thinking to himself) Damn. That's some crazy selective hearing if I ever saw it.
