Cafe etiquette

I am at Panera trying to get some things done for the next hour or two until I have to return to campus.

The guy at the next table is playing a game or movie or something, it sounds like Grand Theft Auto or some sort of driving game.

That's right I said, "sounds like!" This guy has the nerve to leave his laptop speakers on I can barely even think clearly enough to type with all of the honking and screeching tires going on next to me.

I realize this is not the library and the classical music on the speakers combined with the conversations throughout the cafe can rise above a dull roar at times.

Why can't I just get up and say something to him? I should. But I won't. I am just going to hope that he leaves before too long.

UPDATE (13:27) - Ten minutes later my prayers have been answered. The rude computer user got up and left! Woo-hoo!
