    Meh. People watch stuff on public transportation, airplanes, or wherever without headphones. It’s maddening. I don’t care what the content is. They’re just being assholes.

    The flipping thru media? Shit, look at the age of some of the people creating the “content” (I use that word loosely, the vapid and shallow garbage that consumes the majority of bandwidth is devoid of anything worthy of being called content). There’s a huge span of ages, from millennials to tweens generating the noise. Everyone shouting as loud as they can for views. Heck, even if you’re a conservative ass boomer there’s content for you, how does anyone think all these bullshit Q and pizza parlor pedo shit gets spread around.

    Anyway, point being…it’s not the generation being an asshole watching the stuff loudly in public space, there’s plenty of assholes doing it. Just the kind of media they’re blasting is different by age.

        IDK, I remember kids blasting boom boxes in the 90s, and others would listen to headphones around their neck with the cans turned out so others can hear their music. It’s not new, people just suck.
