volume discount

A percentage off da standard price dat you are allowed if you ask for it loudly.

If a merchant has a "volume discount" policy whereby he will "match decibels with discounts" --- i.e., if your vocal-level is 25 dB when you ask for a cheaper price, you get 25% off; raising your voice to 30 dB gains you 30% off, etc. --- then da key would be to actually haul in a moderately-powerful PA system wif huge boomy loudspeakers --- or show up wif several of your buddies speaking through high-wattage megaphones --- and really B-L-A-S-T your price-easement request at a HUNDRED decibels... not only might you indeed obtain said products at no charge, but da shop-owner might simply be more than happy to give you da merchandise for free just to get you and your deafeningly-noisy equipment or bullhorn-toting retinue outta his joint!! :P

gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting

Refers to a non-startling strategy employed whenever you are unable to unobtrusively get someone's attention or make eye-contact with him for whatever reason (maybe he's deep in a book, concentrating hard on a household/carpentry task, or using noisy equipment, and thus he does not look up/around occasionally or hear/observe your presence) and so you start out to say hello by speaking very quietly, and then cautiously raising your voice little-by-little (like some modern-day alarm-clocks do so as to wake you "gently" instead of startling you out of a sound slumber with a full-blast ringer right away) till the previously-oblivious person eventually becomes aware of your proximity and glances up.

I'd wanted to ask my elderly neighbor about my possibly carpooling with him on his grocery-shopping trip the next day, but he was so busy using his riding lawnmower that he never noticed me despite my circling around in front of him several times, so I eventually used the gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting to finally get his attention.

Volume

They don't all need to be great the sheer volume is what makes it undeniably good. ALL of you are doing it.... A LOT. Objectively brilliant.

Hym "It's the volume of it, you know? You're ALL doing it all the time. AND my reach is being stifled. It's like I'm a retard in a group home and YOU don't want me to have the reach I might otherwise have should you not intervene. Ooooookkkkk. Ok. Is there some kind of boundary I'm crossing here!? OK. Ooooohhhh no. I get it. YOU'RE WRONG TO TRY AND STOP ME. That's the takeaway. You should be minding your own business right now. Don't worry about how much reach I have. Do worry about who I'm interacting with. It's none of your business... You don't have a right to stop me."

commercial Volume

the extremely loud volume at which commercials are presented.

Joe: hey dude, why is your TV so loud?
Mark: It's only blaring at commercial volume because it's on commercials.
