Aight, someone explain their point of view please. What level of volume severity have you commenters experienced? Someone listening to something has never bothered me, but it also has never been loud enough I can't have a conversation with someone. Most restaurants play music louder than I hear from a stranger's speakers. I don't get what is rude about it. Even the Everett True comic below, several of you are that on edge about a person whistling or humming to themself?

Shooting them is a kindness. They could be reported to the RIAA for violating public performance copyright.

People around where we live mount Bluetooth speakers to their bicycle and ride around on nature trails sharing their music with everyone because who the hell goes out in nature to experience nature?

I had to listen to someone blast Tiktok and parts of some yelling bro-y podcast in the dentist's office.

I am already on edge whenever I go there, but this put me on a different level, as I was ridiculously overstimulated by the time I was in the chair. They almost did not continue because my blood pressure was alarmingly high.

That's horrible. Think of all the blood someone else has to clean. For that reason I suggest strangle.

Can we have a special level for those who blast conspiracy theory videos? That was my last trip, and even with my headphones, I could still hear them droning on about some ignorant hot take divorced from any semblance of reality.

Let's not shoot them. I prefer public censure.

If more people acted like Everett True, we'd live in a much nicer world. We've given assholes far too much free reign.

I've been stuck on a train with a girl wearing headphones and singing along to Savage Garden. We all suffered.

She was even shutting her eyes tight and doing these ones...

If you've ever listened to just the vocals of a song without music, it was that, but also awfully off-key because she, of course, could not hear herself. Obnoxiously, I think she thought she was putting on a performance we were all impressed by. No one was impressed.

Meanwhile, Google's like, "We're removing the ability to silently check your notifications using your Pixel Buds. You have to use the voice command now. No, we don't care that you primarily use them in public spaces. And we really don't care that our voice recognition has a 15% success rate."

I don't think urinating on people in public transport is a good idea. But otherwise, spot on.
