Peevity-Peeve

I wish so much that people who make websites, or who tart up their myspace pages (and $deity knows they're the foremost offenders in this case) would just refrain from inserting music into their pages.

Downloading isn't an issue, not since PreZ just got Verizon to up our FiOS bandwidth to 30Mbps... it's just that sometimes I'm browsing late at night, whilst listening to some music or playing a movie softly, and then all of a sudden there's this other obnoxious noise overlapping what I'm listening too, often MUCH louder than what I've already got on. With a sleeping husband and baby, I don't really need someone else's crappy loud music tastes forced on me at 3.14am.

So just don't, okay?

I hate that too! Sometimes the music just won't go away (although I think it's because of my crappy computer) and it drives me nuts.

I think sometimes it won't go away because they've hidden the place to turn the music off somewhere down the page... where you have to scroll past about 3 feet worth of images and banners and quiz results and crap.

Unless it keeps going for you even after you close the page/site/tab/window?

Yeah, sorry, I meant when I close the window.
