Rants

I wish some bloggers will stop putting music on automatic playback on their sites and profiles. You know, when loud rock music blasts from your PC's speakers immediately upon entering the site, prompting you to spill the barako coffee on your keyboard while trying to locate the tiny "stop playing" button somewhere, if that button widget is visible at all. The owner thinks the song happens to be sooo cool he or she just had to share it with everybody else.

I have plenty of music clips on my blog as well, but at least you're given the choice whether or not to listen to the audio file or watch the video.

Also, commuters on overhead trains who play mp3 music or watch TV from their phones without headsets obviously think everyone else cannot possibly dislike their choice of music or channel. It only proves that: (1) OK you have a gadget that doesn't play polyphonic ring tones and everybody on the train envies you; (2) your music makes you look kewl, never mind that it is disco; but (3) you have no respect for other people's private space and that (4) you are just a pompous, pretentious ass.
