As a homeless guy that hangs out at McDonald's everyday, this hits close to...well, not "home" 😅
This hits close to current location? :)
PS, hope you find a place to live soon.
Don't get me started on people that wear too much cologne or perfume 😅
Thank you 🫂
Music is horrible but how about when they are scrolling through shorts or tiktok whith blasting sound? Like a never ending spirit box
I see various forms of peacocking these days. The other one is blasting a 1sq mile radius with music from a vehicle.
Incidentally this meme captures my reaction when I see Clint Eastwood.
People got worse over the course of the pandemic and it appears they have no intention to go back to more reasonable public behavior ever.

That kinda goes back to the OP's title. It wouldn't be as bad if it didn't sound terrible. I miss the early 00s when every 3rd or 4th car had giant subwoofers. I may not like what you're playing but at least it sounds decent.
I have to disagree. 9 times out of 10, the song is being drowned out by the sound of the entire car rattling from the bass.
Personally, I prefer a much flatter EQ when listening to my music. I often times turn up the high-mids just a tad. I love a crispy high hat. Jacking the shit out of the bass is kind of spitting on the sound engineer that mixed and mastered the music. It's like taking a medium rare A5 wagyu and dumping A1 sauce on it.
From my experience it only sounds good inside the car. Outside is just heavy bass
This is what happens when there is no headphone port
No, this is what happens when they are a selfish prick who doesn't care about their surroundings. Even if I agree with the lack of 3.5 jack, a crappy pair of bt earphones are cheap, and will save the rest of us from listening to their crap.
You can get USB C to headphone jack dongles super cheap. Bluetooth earbuds are also cheap these days. Not really a good excuse
This is what happens when~~there is no headphone port~~ people are selfish pricks
FTFY
And yet, billions of people manage to not do this, every day.
I am convinced most people are just walking around as blank eyed zombies that can only think about food, sex, and scrolling TikTok.
In my town it's common to see somebody riding their bike through heavy traffic while looking at their phone. I don't get it at all.
I just did one of my 50 mile rides this morning on a bike trail, and I passed a bunch of people with their phones mounted on the handlebars, watching videos of some sort. Like, I guess I could see having a GPS app open, but watching videos? Why the fuck are you even out here? Get a stationary bike and be safe at home at least.
Many people riding and walking on the trail are playing music through their phone speakers instead of using earbuds. It's somewhat less annoying since you don't have to be around them for long, but it's still annoying.
i overtook a topless dude riding his bicycle while scrolling tiktok with both of his hands today. no helmet
its so normalised where I live
It's even worse when you hear it.
Where I find this behavior most infuriating is on walking/biking trails in the forest preserve. Like, seriously!?! I get the desire to listen to something while exercising or just having your "you" time, but when you're riding a bike that cost thousands, you can probably afford some bone conductors or at least ear buds that offer a hear through option. Hell, the expensive units refurbished on eBay get pretty damn cheap.
I just bought a pair of anc earbuds for fun because I have a better set of anc headphones already. They sound way better than I expect or need and they were literally $25.
Theres a janitor at my work that sits in the break room all day blasting right wing tick tocks while people are on coffee break, its insanely annoying.
Start playing Obama speeches when he's doing it.
Always the shittiest, most tone-deaf trap/hip-hop music with the same exact snare drum riff on a loop. There's objectively good stuff from those genres out there, how do these people consistently find the worst?
We’re not talking about smart people here…
I use it in my shop when I'm alone and want something to listen to other than my tools.
my problem with people who do this? they're listening to the worst possible music in a public space.
I used to do this a lot while working around the house/garage but got one of those small "soda can" sized blutooth speakers and would reccomend, its not super loud but the sound is rounded out around the bottom end and i can keep my phone out of the way of whatever i am around (dirt/dust/glues/water).
They are probably listening to low quality spotify streams or, worse, compressed mp3, so it's not as if a pair of headphones would make any difference in sound quality...
Although I would love if they kept their shitty music to themselves, I'm not interested in their crap.
Phone speakers these days are fairly decent. Will good headphones/speakers with a good DAC and AMP and a lossless audio file sound better? Well, duh. Are phone speakers adequate for the vast majority of people who aren't audio~~snobs~~, sorry, audiophiles? Also yes. Just don't be that asshole using speakers in public spaces.
worse, compressed mp3
Everyone who claims they can distinguish 192kbps mp3 from uncompressed audio can also hear the flea cough, as we say in German.
Quality of headphones/speakers makes a much much bigger difference than the file type/quality.
I'll take Spotify w/good headphones over Lossless with phone speakers anyday
What's Ur fav band?
Public transportation people who want to start a fight
Bro did this on the train last weekend. I told him the conductors tell us to silence our phones out of respect for everyone else. Didn't do shit 😂
Probably the music is horrible too, so...
I'm mostly fine with music. But dammit put the phone to your ear when your on a call in public.
But I wanna talk to people like I'm eating a slice of pizza!
I want everyone to hear my pepperoni.
Some do that even in the train.
audiophiles and introverts in hard agreement in this one. handshake meme.
I'm neither and i dont mind listening to the classical radio station on my phone in my house, or seeing the odd cooky character passing by with their music for a moment. as long as they're only passing thru...
Besides it feels terrible, the sound lose all the qualities that make it feel decent.
Guy leaving the store this morning was holding his up to his ear while pushing a buggy with the other. Dude had four cases of soft drinks and he wont buy some cheap ear buds.
