When somebody is shopping in a retail store, and a person (usually a curious or misbehaved child) presses a sound sample button with the intention of annoying /embarrassing nearby shoppers with the sound.
Wife: Did you get anything at Walmart?
Husband: No. Some jerk kid standing next to me hit a sound button, so I had to get out of there before the retail embarassment set in.
