Like, what the fuck. Waiting rooms, libraries, movie theaters, on and on. That same fucking Samsung notification sound, at volume 11/10. For every notification every 20 seconds as Fox/CNN/QVC forces more and more bullshit on you and therefore us. Do you not know that you’re pissing everyone off? Do you not care? I hope it’s because you’re too stupid to turn off sound notifications, but the high volume suggests that you like it and want more. Your generation was the one making us be quiet in public spaces and now you ruin them for everybody. Seriously, fuck you.

While yes I feel you on this ... the boomers are probably going deaf and need the extra volume... the asshats who have the phone on speaker like a goddamn walkie talkie in those same public places should be drawn and quartered.

Generally a bigger push towards "maybe don't be a pubic nuisance" for everyone: regardless of age/generation couldn't hurt.

I was at the Dr office Monday. While in the waiting room, at full volume, everyone experienced:

"Hello Moto" "Hello Moto" "Hello Moto" "Hello Moto" "Hello Moto"

Several years ago, I was in a waiting room while my father had heart surgery. Two things I remember were that for some reason they had us in an area that was primarily the waiting room for pediatric surgery and, a woman with one of the other families in the same lobby was getting a call every 5 minutes. I remember these things because the woman's ringtone was "If I die young" by The Band Perry. Every 5 fucking minutes, this woman's phone started screaming "If I die young, bury me in......." This was enough to make me want to fly off the handle waiting on my 60 year old father's surgery. I can't imagine if I'd been with a family who was waiting to hear about a child. To this day I can't hear that song while seeing red for a minute.

Dp you not know that you’re pissing everyone off?

Did you tell them they’re pissing you off?

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 2 points 1 day ago

Somebody was playing shitty rap/drill music on the train a couple of years back.

I thought I might have to be the one to tell him, but then he made a call on speakerphone explaining to somebody that he'd just got out of prison and was looking for somewhere to stay.

I decided not to tell him after all.

The ones on TikTok kill me. They’re the first to complain about younger generations being so loud with their phones, but meanwhile they’re just scrolling that shit in public, a new video every few seconds, with the volume turned up to max.

So you hear every new voice/music with no context.

They do get mad if you have noise cancelling earbuds in, too, so we can’t win. Somehow that makes us in the wrong as well.
