This is a question Absolute Power

Have you ever been put in a position of power? Did you become a rabid dictator, or did you completely arse it up and end up publicly humiliated? We demand you tell us your stories.

Thanks to The Supreme Crow for the suggestion

I have the power
to ruin your journey by public transport. If I did the equivalent job for another company I would not have the same amount of power but I would have responsibility. If I think too much about what I do I make myself ill. The extra money in another company would be nice but I think I'll carry on where I am still allowed to fart (just about) without asking permission and don't have to explain every single decision I made 3 weeks ago when the service was in meltdownto someone who has had that period of time to think about it in isolation.

I have a mobile 'phone with a little speaker in the back, which plays music.

Pray to your god that I am not an arrogant, stabby teenager.

Oh god this.
*wishes someone would invent a keyfob gadget that remotely deactivates shitty mobile phone speakers*

You could make one.
It would be illegal.

You could make enough interference with one of these to make them turn the phone off.

I don't think this would interfere with the playback of mp3s through shitty, shitty speakers.
Sadly.

I believe
elsewhere on b3ta, there is a post about an obese man subverting this unfortunate habit of be-acned youths by dancing enthusiastically to the noise of their pop-gusting sound-spouts. Perturbed, they desist.

I personally prefer preempting them by playing Vivaldi; it would be Wagner, but my beefed-up android doesn't really have the bass for it.

OK, I'm a retard, I still don't get it.
