One of my pet peeves, I’m hearing impaired and when these players fire up in my quiet world it is disconcerting at best. Comical at times what I go through trying to find the source of the noise. My first few experiences left me wondering what in the world was going on. I finally got it figured out.
I would prefer the choice of listening to a sites content, rather than have them just invite themselves in unannounced.
Kathy– haha! Bagpipes while you worked, eh? You sure he wasn’t trying to kill you?? Yow.
Lisa– Exactly! Early 90s! And that was before I even got online! So YEAH! I do click away, too. But that split second between the page loading and the clicking-away… OW.
I didn’t have time to watch this yesterday, too funny. I always forget to turn my speakers down which isn’t a good thing when I’m doing my drops early in the morning and DH is still asleep in the next room. GRRRRR I hate that.
I always have 100s of tabs open in 3 different browsers and all of a sudden I will hear an awful music out of nowhere and here I am cursing away about the website with music on in one of my tabs…. lol
:) I’m a married mom of four teenage children. We live in Upstate New York in a soon-to-be-renovated 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?!
Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side. I love saving money, spending money, gadgets, funny stories, and coffee- lots and lotsofcoffee!! I'm a Christian and I love the good life God has given me! :D You can read all the juicy details about me here. Thanks for visiting!

Ha! That’s funny! Poor guy. I used to work with someone who played a bagpipe CD at work. We shared a very small space. I wanted to kill him.

Look, auto music on a website is very 90s. Get over it. When I hear music on a site, I click away.
