Turn it down, folks!

I hope a really good scientist makes a really good invention sometime soon - A HMB. Let me define myself: HMB = Human Mute Button. All humans need one. Seriously. They just go yada-yada-yada for no specific reason. I am blessed my brother isn't like that. Well, he is a l'il talkative, but tell him to keep quiet and he will. What I'm talking about are all those people who just can't shut up. They are omnipresent. Sad, but true. At school, in the malls, on the train - God, I'm FED UP. They chatter incessantly on their cells. Now I don't have a problem with chatter. It just so happens that these people are loud. Really loud. And they apparently don't give a damn to the peace-loving people they share their planet with.
Look, I may sound like I'm cribbing, but I'm not. I can put up with being stuck for hours in traffic. I can put up with messy homes and messier streets. I can put up with stuff that would turn most people off. But I can't stand noise.
I'm not alone in this. There is a scientific reason for this - just read this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_pollution#Human_health_effects and you'll know what I'm talking about. But enough. Unfortunately we don't come with mute buttons. But we can turn down our own volumes, right? So please. Turn it down, folks.

PS. You can tell I had a headache when I started writing this.
PPS. Next time we'll have something to do with the movies. Hopefully.
