Burstin' my eardrums

Jump to Comments

I felt a twinge in my head every time I used the ticket bar­ri­ers at Cent­ral Sta­tion at the coun­try plat­forms end, and for a long time it drove me insane. But I’ve finally worked out what it is. The honchos at CityRail are using young peoples’ super­ior hear­ing against them. This is so diabol­ic­ally schem­ing it actu­ally makes sense. I mean, have you ever noticed young’uns get­ting up to no good within the vicin­ity of the ticket bar­ri­ers? Nope. And the fre­quency of my passing through there makes up for the non-scientificness of this observation.

What’s really insi­di­ous is that it seems to be tar­geted at that square foot­age of real estate right out­side the ticket bar­ri­ers and nowhere else. So if you’re at the far end of the plaza, at the arch entrance to the sta­tion, you won’t hear a god­damned thing. Walk in a little fur­ther after a long day, and BAM. You’re hit with lethal high-pitched dose of über-annoyance. Old people and hap­less tour­ists with lug­gage are of course unaf­fected. Notice also that the Hungry Jacks and Krispy Kreme areas are unaf­fected by this repel­lant caco­phony. Tin­foil hat tells me that some­how they’re tight with CityRail on this one.
