YKYAAW on the train after a night out, you tell a drunk lady off for playing her music out loud on her phone because those tiny speakers would never produce decent SQ & a fight almost ensues when other passengers actually irritated by her music weigh in to voice their annoyance.

What happened after this?


I said "almost"; ironically to defuse the situation, the passengers allowed her to play an XMas song which calmed everyone down & allowed a hug between the main antagonists.
This all started because she was frustrated at the end of Mad-Friday night, it was XMas & everyone was head-down reading their phones & being miserable. One guy took offence to having his personal space being invaded by the woman's musical taste & upped the ante by being a bit too sarcastic.

YKYAAW you hear the line : "The Saber... Take it!" & you think of ESS Tech.

Oh Gawd, Mad Friday; when all the amateur boozers crawl out of the woodwork and make a sorry spectacle of themselves.
 
A good night to stay in with a nice bottle or two of something. And something nice playing through proper loudspeakers.

Or when you find yourself in the plumbing/hardware section wondering how to build a headphone stand from piping. 


Or when you use a banana hanger as a headphone stand.

YKYAAW you think about breaking-into the Post Office to retrieve your missed headphones delivery because it is closed for New Year's Day Bank Holiday & you cannot wait for 1 day....

I can vouch for this.

I'm not-so-patiently waiting for a Garage 1217 Project Polaris that's supposed to be here Monday. The USPS tracking website hasn't updated since December 31st and I'm just about losing my mind.
