I had a hero bus driver who pulled over the bus and kicked out a guy who was doing this.
in my city, all bus drivers were of hero grade about 10 years ago. Today, none of them give a fuck so long as they make their time points. dafuq happun
I am convinced most people are just walking around as blank eyed zombies that can only think about food, sex, and scrolling TikTok.
Im not sure they think about ant of those, but yes.
Hey don’t bring tiktok into this. I’ve discovered quite a bit of good music, political uprisings, neat hobbies, beautiful art and artists of all kinds, philosophical concepts, and wonderful ways to look at life on there. Like those two hiker guys from “we love you” that talk about being present and coping with and appreciating life.
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’ve made many victims, mostly steps.
Not looking ahead for loong time, going into my bikelane without realising and then I give them a shoulder with a scream of surprise and anger.
last one I didn’t even have to look, I heard the sound of him and his phone hitting the asphalt. So satisfying.And before the angry comments: One of those clowns broke my girlfriends arm with that idiotic behavior and I’ve also had near accidents.
If you’re this selfish and irresponsible you deserve it.Lol, murdering bicyclists with your car for something that doesnt hurt you.
Yeah… And even when it’s reggaeton.
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.
Guy was buying in bulk on the bus, he might not have been able to afford them.
What? He went and got in a late model car and left. He is just one of millions who don’t have any problem with doing that.
Me too. It’s just the worst. And a bluetooth speaker (I like the m83) is pretty darn cheap.
I like to put my phone on my shoulder(it’s not loud enough from a breast pocket) and listen to music on podcasts while I work as headphones are a “safety issue”, I honestly don’t mind the sound quality
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.
Are the TikTok’s about people who don’t want to work anymore?
I wanna share this to all aunties of my town
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.

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.
I was in this car yesterday. Dubstep and woofers. It detached my organs.
From my experience it only sounds good inside the car. Outside is just heavy bass
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.
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.
As a homeless guy that hangs out at McDonald’s everyday, this hits close to…well, not “home” 😅
Free wifi?
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
Public transportation people who want to start a fight
This is what happens when there is no headphone port
This is what happens when
there is no headphone portpeople are selfish pricksFTFY
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
While you should never do it in public, those phones with the virtual 3d sound field speakers are starting to get pretty decent to listen to music on. Still, never listen at higher volumes, cuz that breaks it. But it’s pretty awesome for any volume level where it can manage the right level of base for the song.
Specifically what it’s doing is making it so each ear only hears the part that is meant for it, and doesn’t get the bleed over from the other speaker. Virtual stereo isolation, the Switch 2 also does it in standalone mode. But yeah, of course, that only works for the primary user, anyone in the wrong physical location relative to the speakers won’t get the effect. And actually it’ll just sound weird to them.

Like an audio hologram?
Could sort of be described that way. But they basically just shape the sound in a way that your ear hears it with the specific acoustic distortion that normally cues your brain that the sound came from behind you. Or wherever.
So in the sense that a hologram is using different properties of shaping light to trick your eyes that something looks different than it really does, then yeah, audio hologram sort of fits. And similarly, it only works if your ears are exactly where they expect them to be, just like a hologram with your eyes.
