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…

    The one thing that would push people to electric. At least then you can charge at home and avoid gas stations.

      Don’t worry; they’ll just start playing ads in the car itself before you are able to shift gears to drive.

      Or foregoing driving in favor of walking, biking, or public transit, which works even better.

        Good one, except available only where developed well

          Yep, that’s why zoning reform is literally the most important issue in North America, being at the root of basically every other issue. (The climate crisis, the housing crisis, the obesity crisis, and just about every other problem including things like economic inequality and racism are either ultimately caused by or facilitated by exclusionary, low-density zoning).
