Deafening Silence 

When you say something stupid and it is responded with silence, leaving you to ponder every decision in your life up to that point that made you proceed to speak what your brain deemed appropriate.
You: I know we have only gone on one date but what do you think we should name our firstborn?
Becky: ..........................

Friend: So how did she respond?
You: With Deafening silence.

deafening silence 

Deafening silence- when even the solemnity of silence has become too loud.
Deafening silence described: the point of silence in which one can feel the fine hairs in the inner ear vibrating with the subtlest change in air pressure. Going out on a limb, but the sound of dead proteins rubbing and creating static nerve pulses to the brain at such a lean frequency that the wave pattern is then magnified by your brain to the point of confusion, annoyance, uneasiness, or anxiety.

Crickets play this orchestra piece all around the world. No one knows who taught it to them.
I was outside at night looking for my car keys when all of a sudden 'Deafening Silence' began to play

the silence is deafening 

When way up in the mountains with no sounds, the silence does indeed get to be screamingly loud & deafening!
I doubted what I heard about the silence is deafening until I experienced it firsthand. What an amazing phenomena!
