Follows same principles of a cock block, but instead of preventing someone from having sex, preventing someone from enjoying the
drop of a song. The '
drop' part comes from the common term that describes the bass drop in a song (usually electronic, such as
dubstep, but also the climax of a hardstyle song, etc.)
The purpose is generally either to get back at someone for playing their music too loudly or just to
troll and cause annoyance for someone; however, it can sometimes happen unintentionally.
Methods:
1) If the target is listening to a song with their earbuds, sneakily pull them out of their ears right before the '
drop' (generally done if their music is audible to the one dropblocking)
2) In the
car or any other time when listening to music through a radio/sound system of some sort, turn off the system just before the 'drop'.
a.
-*victim listening to UKF
dubstep*
-*dropblocker hears it because victim is listening at max volume with shitty
Apple earbuds*
-*dropblocker recognizes song and waits until the end of the build, right before the bass
drop*
-*dropblocker yanks out victim'
s earbuds from behind*
-"Why di-... fuck you, that was right before the drop!"
b.
-*listening to new Hard With Style episode in friend's
car, friend is driving*
-*melody is building, seconds away from the kick and the climax*
-*friend turns off
car after pulling into parking spot, which turns off the sound system right before the long-awaited climax*
-"Nooo, why did you turn off the
car?! You could have waited a couple more seconds for the climax"
-*friend is confused because friend does not understand hardstyle/was not paying attention*
