I'm so glad all the pumps that do that shit around me have a very large '<- MUTE' sticker next to that button. I've gotten in the habit of just mashing that button as the gas starts flowing so I don't have to hear that bullshit.
I've been meaning to learn how to sabotage the pump to get the ads to not even play. It's on the list of anarchist things to do.
