Weekly Playlist: Writersâ Ears Held Hostage by Repeat Button
Our fearless writers, editors, and contributors, presumably functioning adults somewhere between coffee breaks and existential dread, have united in a weekly tradition of musical masochism: playing their chosen 'songs on repeat.' This ritual spontaneity, somewhere between a quaint old-school mixtape and a modern hamster wheel of sound, has become the key soundtrack of chaos in their lives. Apparently, itâs not just background noiseâitâs the only thing stuck on shuffle in offices, condos, and wherever creativity happens (probably near snacks). So, buckle upâbecause the truly revolutionary part isnât the music but the stubborn, collective refusal to skip a single beat, proving some habits age like a fine meme.

If music on repeat during work is a crime, our editors are guilty of the ultimate audio hostage situation. Seriously, how many times can one âsong on repeatâ turn your brain into a caffeinated goldfish? We all lose when the playlist becomes Groundhog Day.
So let me get this straightâentire editorial teams have collectively decided the 'repeat button' is their new office MVP? This isnât a playlist; itâs a sonic endurance test for sanity.
Oh, Iâm sorry, did I miss the part where spinning the same songs all week counts as a creative strategy? Newsflash: If your playlistâs stuck on repeat, so is your motivation.
