Let me explain the goddamn situation: At work, we all sit in a large open spaced room, with desks sort of "strategically" placed so people who work with similar things are grouped together. Anyway, one of my coworkers has a set of PC speakers, on wich she streams the most mainstream radio station in Sweden. Every day. Five days a week.

This piece of goddamn fucking shit of a station plays the same songs EVERY FUCKING DAY BACK TO BACK. CONSTANT, BRANDEAD, SOUL-LESS BULLSHIT POP MUSIC.

Now, thankfully, i have a set of circumaural headphones (so not in-ear ones) and a few gigs of mp3's (and thank god for mp3-blogs) so i can escape from the fucking shit music whenever i want. But, i don't want to/can't have them on all day, i need to be able to communicate with the people around me and so on, so i inevitably hear the fucking radio alot of time during the day. And I fucking hate it Sad I can handle it for a few days, but then it just fucking drives me crazy, HOW THE FUCK CAN PEOPLE NOT GET SICK OF THIS? THE SAME SONG IS PLAYED ATLEAST FIFTEEN TIMES A DAY! Arrrrghhh FUCK!

Start singing along with the song and make up lyrics for it if you don't know the lyrics. I sing so badly that the guy was ashamed and stopped it.

Good idea, but wouldn't know how to get rid of the body from where we're located. Sounds risky. A viable option is to just bomb the fuck out the radio stations headquarters.

Wow Laughing I don't think they'd get the hint, they'd just laugh at my poor-as-fuck singing Razz

No really why don't you just ask her to turn it down? I mean you are all adults, right? Wink

My first job, working in a chocolate factory in England, had the SAME fucking shit all the time. They'd play the radio while we worked and I swear to god, I must have heard that Lucretia McNeal song "Ain't That Just The Way" at least three to four HUNDRED times in less than 3 months. Loud too. Playing over the radio and tannoy system every single god damned fucking hour of the god damned fucking day.

It drove me batshit insane. I swear, I now have a VERY powerful hatred of that song.

The TVs at my work are tuned to MTV.

It plays the same goddamn lame rap/pop songs 100 times every hour.

Fucking Sir GaGa, Gay-Z and that fucker Michael Buble and his stupid clip.

Oh and can't forget that blonde bitch everyone is praising for some reason, the one with the clip where she gets kicked out of her parents' home for some reason, probably because she's a cunt.

Fucking MTV sucks.

I like watching my sweet 16 just to see all those overprivileged white bitches scream when their parents don't give them a black stripper for their birthday party

Wait for her to go elsewhere, like the toilets, and fuck her radio up.

Been there, than that. In addition i fucking HATE the kind of "music" played on almost every radio in the country and world propably...dumbshit hip-hop, all kinds of electronic music (maybe except Apollo 440, Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim and a few others) plus all the shitties pop songs which i am sick of BTW.
Every day at work its the same fucking shit. No room for classic rock (maybe some Stairway To Heaven once a month Rolling Eyes), hard-rock or even heavy metal. None, nada, nicht!

Thanks to democracy i can't turn off the radio (three other people who dig that kind of shit in the radio...). See? You made me sad now... Sad

Hmm, could you have access to her computer without her noticing? You could block the station with a firewall or edit the Hosts file to have the url of the radio station point to 127.0.0.1 - something like that, doubt she'd be able to figure it out. Twisted Evil
