I was just pumping gas the other day, and while I'm at it there's this cellphone speaker music that starts really loudly, like the phone is at 400% audio.

Motherfucking screen started playing an ad I couldn't skip. Soon theyre just going to loop audible ads everywhere we go, in public spaces.

Since then I've avoided this brand of gas station and affiliates, but I won't be able to hide for long.
