Why can I hear my pick when I play guitar?

How do you soften a guitar pick?
Like everyone else, I’m pretty sure actually softening the pick is a pipe dream, but holding a pick closer to the base and leaving more of it exposed will give it more of a floppy, “thin” quality. Just buy another pick. Buy a dozen of them. But if you really are that stubborn, sand the pick down to make it thinner.
