I once sat next to a guy on a bus who was blasting music from his phone. It finally became too much and I asked him to put in some earphones maybe? I was fully expecting some psychotic reaction, but he just went "oh yeah, sure thing" and then put in earphones and I was just sitting there like "???? You had these the whole time, and you were chill about the request indicating you understand its annoying to hwar your music blasted from shitty phone speakers on a crowded bus, but you still did it???? What???" Like he was so nice about it, but just the fact I had to ask him made the act so weird. Those interactions can really get on my nerves
Maybe he thought you liked the music? He was just sharing the vibes instead of keeping them all too himself
I actually have started telling myself this (in my head) when someone has their car music, and the bass especially, blowing out windows at traffic lights.
"Wow, he wanted to share this sick beat with me. It sucks, but that's a nice gesture." It does work to a degree to just assume the other person is just really a nice, normal person and enthusiastically spreading music that they genuinely believe everyone else enjoys.
lmao I doubt it. There's some people that just blast their tunes on public transport for some reason, it's odd. But I was actually misremembering, he wasn't blasting music, he was watching tiktoks.
