Shit comes in threes

Today, for the third time in the space of two days, I had the experience of somebody playing their music aloud from their cell phone, loud enough to hear it 10 or 15 feet away; different people each time, too! The first two times were only moderately aggravating, as I was walking past them and didn't have to put up with it for very long.

But today was different. Today, the inconsiderate dickless wanker in question was at a bus stop. For 10 minutes I had to endure country western "music." Or I would have; see, when he didn't put it away after I asked him to turn it off (and I know he heard me, he gave me a disdainful look), I thought 'Okay, two can play that game, dickhole.' I went through my own phone for the most apropos song. I considered something from Molly's music, but instead went with "FUCKIT" by Wumpscut. It is very, very different from the twangy country bullshit he was playing. I would describe it as... grindy industrial noise music wherein the chorus contains the phrase "fuck it" about once every few seconds. The inconsiderate fellow was not pleased with this, but he said nothing.

Then, just before the bus pulled up, I said quite loudly to him, "For future reference, buy some fucking headphones, asshole!" I could tell by the look on his face that he heard me.

A true Safe way

Speaking of inconsiderate people with their shitty music in public, I was just reading an old post about the bullshit NTs get up to, including music every goddamn place in public these days except the libraries. I would love to have the money and help to set up a chain of grocery stores aimed at autistic people; no music in the store, there'd be clocks in view everywhere you go, and all the products would stay in the same goddamn place FOREVER, to a degree that if we don't have something on the shelf, it's because they don't make it anymore. That would be the only time we'd ever change anything; to replace products that aren't made anymore.

There would be a cafe there, too. Again, no music. Like the main store, absolute silence. We would only have announcements over loudspeaker for like, amber alerts or other emergencies; everything else would be taken care of by walkie-talkies.
