My back: Allow me to throw myself out.
My eyes: From now on, keep text at least one foot away from me.
Hasn't happened to me because I listen to video game music and if my local grocer fucking started playing the Monster Hunter theme I would absolutely lose my shit.
(Once in Japan a small shop selling pottery was playing a song from FF5 and I bought a lovely cup out of principle).
A few years ago an ice cream truck came down blasting the Super Mario Bros 2 title music and I damn near chased after it
I've heard enough of it when making a reimplementation of SMB2 in Lua (not even close to being in playable state). I don't want to hear it anymore at all, lol.
I've heard the Ocarina of Time start screen song multiple times, in phone hold music as well as an elevator, in multiple countries.
I also heard the song of storms once on a phone hold music.
But what's wild to me is that if you stay up late at night on the cruise ship from Finland to Sweden, this plays.
The fact that they got Maurice LaMarche and Rob Paulson to be the bartenders is excellent.
Also, I just noticed. His name is Robert Paulson....... Pinky is Robert Paulson......
Yeah! Fuck the system and buy all the lovely cups!!!
FF5 is the best one too. Though mystic quest had the best music.
I'm not sure what the reaction is if Mystic Quests Battle 2 theme played at the super market. Lol
PROOF OF A HERO INTENSIFIES
"Why did you buy a 5lb roast?"
"Proof of a Hero started playing."
Hahaha I was trying to think of something clever like that but my brain is not here today.
The grocery store I work for played the Skyrim theme once, fuck I felt awesome while cutting watermelon.
I became the Melonborn!
I just want my grocery store to start playing JRPG OSTs. Buying vegetables while jaming to Chrono Trigger songs would be the best. Black Omen? More like best Omen.
Adds a certain level of tension to the shopping experience, plus we know stores use slow songs to slow people down and shop more.
Always be looking for worse music. Never let them figure you out.
I can't tell if death metal is mainstream or not yet, but branching into tech in 2007 is serving me well in keeping the normies freaked out.
When they start playing Master Boot Record in shops, I'll just climb into an ice floe and punt myself to oblivion.
That's actually sweet thank you
Nirvana as elevator music. RiP
That is something that might make Kurt roll over in his grave.
But seriously, I think elevator music should make a comeback. Just use songs without lyrics, you know, like... elevator music.
Beats the ads on screens I see playing in many elevators...
damn, are we already there? The only place I saw ads in an elevator was in cyberpunk 2077
I'm in South East Asia, seen them in different countries here, mostly in malls but even in my current apartment building. Feels very Cyberpunk even just walking by and hearing it.
Muzak :)

ITLL HAPPEN TO YOU
No it isn't and I'm old too. It's either butt rock, dad rock, pop, rap that's actually just pop now, or terrible country. Barely of each is even passable but there's a few gems in each except for the country which would need to go older or play Charley Crockett and they won't.
And there's still good stuff coming out, it's just (as usual since like '97) it gets no radio play outside listener sponsored or college stations. Satellite excluded, terrestrial only.
I work retail and have sometimes ran into a genuinely decent song. nowadays I don't pay attention anymore because I listen to my own music to keep my sanity
I had this same experience yesterday. I recognized it from my youth and was sort of transported back to that time and thought, "It fucking sucked then and sucks now." Then I moved on with my life.
Had this realization at a brewery and bars two years ago. The music playing there is stuff I grew up with.
I have recently rewatched community and just find myself humming the music from there, that elevator kind of music
To be honest, it's a banger.
Like when Eminem and Kendrick played the Superbowl in 2021.
