Can't escape commercials, even while pumping gas at Shell

Big frenly fren. Much wow!
I pride myself in avoiding commercials. Adblock, Script block, no live TV, etc.
The only commercials I experience now are on the radio (if it's on)

Now, select Shell gas stations in my area have added TV screens on the gas pumps, blasting commercials at full volume the entire time you pump.
A train went by, and I could still hear the damn commercials.
There is no opt-out, cancel, or "wait 5 seconds" option. Kinda sucks if you going for a fill-up. It used to be a relaxing peaceful experience.
After answering no to Air Miles, BCAA, Carwash, Club Card... provide a "silence" option, at least!
Now I have to drive around and find gas stations without these screens on the pump.

Fuck Shell, why do you got to be the last remaining station providing ethanol-free gasoline?

I hate all the questions. There was a gas station here that just had tap and pump but it's got a points card option now. I recently switched to a Canadian tire credit card so now I'm buying gas there. At least the points rack up quite a bit of CT money. It keeps me in fishing gear.
