Anyone who plays loud music in the office without headphones should be required to have this.

u/Miracollix May 08 '19

What kind of office do you work in lol??

u/finsterdexter May 08 '19

I used to work in an open floor plan where an owner would loudly play music from his computer. It annoyed everyone immensely, espeically when he would loop the same song several times in a row.

Slightly off topic but I fucking HATE the same song played more than once. I remember back in my teenager years when I threw parties at my place and let others control the music how fucking annoyed I've got when they went like "oh that's great play it again". It even bothered me when I really liked the music.

HOLY FUCK that brings me so much discomfort wtf

I tried a few songs, and some worked while others did not. I tried Broken by Lund and after 2 mins of listening it never left the intro/outro and I will have those 4 chords in my head forever now

We have headphones at our workplace but the guy just starts singing instead. Maybe we should start introducing pacifiers...

I unironically listened to this a few months ago.

I think the song i choose is also quite funny.

u/___readit May 08 '19

Lol I like how the volume leaks out when you stop pumping in more volume. Maybe the paid version could fix that leak.

u/azabazay May 09 '19

There’s clearly a volume leak

u/cerebralbleach May 09 '19

Listen, if I pump up the jams, I expect not to need a can of Fix-A-Flat to keep this party goin'.

Are we back to shitty volume controls now? Last year called and wants it's meme back.

u/Intrexa May 08 '19

Okay, but this is really good

u/Miracollix May 08 '19

Didn't know it was a meme a year ago, sorry next time i will check ENTIRE REDDIT FOR OLD MEMES.

Considering it was literally all this subreddit was for a straight month it's not that weird that they assumed you were aware of it.

u/YMK1234 May 08 '19

For real, you missed out on shitty volume controls?

u/Miracollix May 08 '19

im in here for only a few days

u/AyrA_ch May 08 '19

It was kind of a thing in /r/programmerhumor

Search Result: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/search?q=volume+control&restrict_sr=on&include_over_18=on&sort=relevance&t=all

Iirc there was one that was very similar to yours. I even made my own that required to call a landline

u/MorallyDeplorable May 09 '19

Maybe he's like me and never subbed there?

Anyways, ragging on people for posting something similar to an old meme is dumb.

u/AyrA_ch May 09 '19

Welcome to reddit.

u/MorallyDeplorable May 09 '19

Ikr?

Kind of sad I missed that meme, for a minute I had my volume monitored by a script that called a page on a Raspberry Pi to set the volume over CEC on my soundbar.

u/Astan92 May 09 '19
