Fuck ads at the gas pump
Fuck ads at the gas pump
Idk if this is the right instance for this, but how fucking tired of these forced ads at gas pumps is everyone else?
I'm paying 4 bucks a gallon to have you shove advertising down my throat like an erect cock?
What the actual fuck
Anyone have any good ad blocking practices for this?
I've seen duct or painters tape covering the speakers...
You can press a button next to the screen to mute it, but this doesn't work at all gas stations. (Usually its the 2nd from the top on the right side)
I guess its just time to gettoblast music every time I pump gas like back when I was 19....
You're viewing a single thread.
For the pumps that the mute button doesn't work: carry a small screwdriver, 1/8", flat blade, insert into center of speaker then pull sideways to severe the coil wire.
Great idea, it’s not like every single gas station is riddled with cameras and you have a license plate they can track you with or anything….
Tired of ads at the gas station? Carry a lighter
Can’t have a problem if the problem is atomized. You being right along with it may be a problem….
They too will get the screwdriver treatment!
It doesn't effect the operation of the pump and takes a three second poke and twist. With no legitimate use of the speaker it would be months before it is noticed. Think they would scrub through tens of thousands of interactions with the pump and find that one person who leaned in a bit? Doubtful, and if so, minor vandalism charge and a small fine for months of quiet peace. Worth it in my book.
Some electronics have a way to test the system if the speaker is functional and can potentially kill the system, so that’s not even remotely true. Also, maybe they have to manually check the pump every morning when they turn the pumps on as part of their start up process.
You are a fool if you think stuff isn’t able to verify and test itself in todays age or they don’t have an employee checking stuff semi frequently…
In either case it wouldn’t be hard to go through a days footage, even easier if the system self tests and tells you when/if the problem occurred.
Or just go to a different gas station instead of vandalizing property that's not yours.
