Are you looking for a way out of those Zoom meetings that are taking your valuable television time away while you “work” from home?
We’d like to introduce you to Zoom Escaper!
It’s a new web tool that’ll allow you to “self-sabotage” your Zoom audio stream, theoretically making you “unbearable” to keep around in the meeting.
Once activated, you’ll be able to interrupt things with an echo, a bad connection, a crying baby, an upset man, wind, dogs, construction, or urination noise.
Don’t blame us if you get fired, though.
Oh, and check out these sounds. They are absolutely amazing.

New Online Tool Helps Get You Out Of Annoying Virtual Meetings
Before the pandemic began, I had never been in a virtual meeting. Once they started to become the norm, I thought I would love them. I mean why would we ever have to physically get together ever again, right?
Well, it turns out that they are just as annoying as regular, face-to-face meetings.
