I used to do shit like that all the time with my ex wife when she went to the bar. My go to song was always Stevie Wonder "I Just Called to Say I Love You"
She loved it. We were getting along back then. She left me for a guy who appeared to offer more security and she completely upended and ruined my life doing it. Now I'm doing much better and she's totally miserable. Good. Fuck her.
It sounds like you're intentionally misunderstanding, but in case you're being genuine: if you ever end up in a partnership where the two of you have kids, you should both be good teammates and support your partner getting some relaxation time with their friends.
Sabotaging your partner's social life and break time is worse than petty; it's controlling and destructive. If this post isn't just a joke (prob a joke) this guy is being a burden and worse.
I don't think you have any friends. Like, actual, genuine friends. Because genuine friendship requires a little antagonism from time to time, and if you can't (playfully) antagonize the friends in your life, there's some issues with the relationship you're conveniently forgetting.
Imagine thinking joking around with and good-natured pranks with your partner is "controlling and destructive". Touch grass and have IRL social interactions with people.
Do you like the sort of person that cheers "It wAS jUSt a jOKe" after being mean but funny?
Do you want to be the sort of person that gleefully joins the winning side of a dogpile instead of soberly considering the actual words they're actually replying to which--AFAIK--you didn't consider or maybe thoroughly read?
I hope not. Maybe come back to this later and think about it. You seem pretty cool normally. You're better than the unconsidered and condescending "touch grass" response you gave.
If you're throwing a shit-fit because someone put a song on loop for a laugh, then *you* are the mean partner. You also shouldn't throw around words like 'condescending' after a comment like that.
I would absolutely crack up if my husband did this. Like, that's some hilarious, grade A harmless prank shit there. Give the guy the benefit of the doubt that he actually knows his wife well enough to intuit that she'd feel the same way.
That's one take. Another take is there's nothing like encouraging your spouse to enjoy themselves because you support and love them, but also both having a great sense of humour and enjoying teasing and playing jokes on one another. But sure, let's assume it's the negative one based on absolutely no evidence whatsoever.
His choice of words definitely implies he’s trying to garner sympathy for himself. “My wife left me home alone with the kids to go out drinking with her friends” strikes a completely different tone than “my wife went out with her friends”.
I read that as factual. Sets the scene for him being bored and then going to have fun with jukebox. "Home alone with the kids" is a common enough phrase, and sets up the joke
I don't know why, every time I was stopped at one of two lights I would play Justin Bieber's Baby with the Touch Tunes jukebox app for over a year. Call me maybe was a different thing I had going on somewhere else.
Yes, in the app you can choose literally anywhere in the world where there is an active touch tunes machine. Same with AMI. It just will default to the one nearest to you but you can select anywhere.

We used to play Mmm Bop at least 10 times in a row right before walking out of an establishment

What an asshole, she likely doesn’t get a lot of free time with kids so to ruin it like this is just shitty and childish

I'd been married long time ago. Where did you come from, where did you go?

It's a decent prank, but I mean, is your wife not allowed to go out, buddy?

"Amnesia" off that same album was also a bop and it's always bummed me out a little that it never got the same attention.

Giving it a listen now, thank you.
I also learned that they have songs like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLkPwxcIji0 👍👍

I hope she finds a better partner soon.

Sounds like she already found a pretty good partner???

"It sounds like you're intentionally misunderstanding" Oh they're not the ones intentionally misunderstanding. Get off your high horse.

I hope this is staged or whatever.

Why?
Lulabel73
Because it’s mean. Can’t you see that?!
Midgarmerc
Seems like a harmless prank
Lulabel73
Ruining your wife’s evening. Hilarious.

If you wonder why you struggle with relationships, this is your sign
Midgarmerc
How is it ruining her evening? It's just background music
HawkmanXLII
Yeah, because there's nothing like resenting your spouse having a fun night out with friends to build a solid relationship.

Am Dad. Dude sounds a touch of a douche but nothing that'd tell me he's for sure an ass hat based only on this.
Maybe I'll give him 60/40 odds of being a man child. Not enough info.

And here I assumed they worked based on a local network. Can you really play stuff at places you've previously connected to?

No, but I'll tell you something that you CAN do: edit a text message template :)
Metallica93
Other users are saying "Yes", so editing a text message image seems unlikely.
johnxbear
You can actually.
itsallaboutthecones
Yes, you absolutely can play at any of them. Pull it up right now and you can pick from whichever establishment that you would like.

Oh, you don't even have to visit the place, first? Haha. That's... powerful informarion to have, thank you :D

Boy, a lot of people didn’t like Knocked Loose on Kimmel the other night, well, they’re about to learn to like them.

Last I checked they have William Hung's album. It is extremely bad. People WILL be upset if you play four songs in a row.
