Yea, sometimes when I'm out in public, I like to listen to music on speakers. Sorry if it's a mild inconvenience you have to HEAR something as we pass by each other. God forbid, yall need to lighten up.

I get being aggravated about people blasting music on a bose speaker in a bus or train (I used public transit in L.A. for years). But just enjoying my day sitting somewhere or going on a walk I might put it on a speaker, eat my ass if that annoys you.

Why not use headphones/IEMs like a normal person? You'll get far superior sound quality without annoying others.

And people will be less likely to annoy you. It's a win-win.

I will not mourn when someone harms you for your anti social actions.

Everyone disliked that.

At least you acknowledge you're being a dickhead, but don't get so buttmad that it upsets people 😂

So I'm curious; why no headphones? When I listen to music from a speaker in open space, half of the sound is basically gone. My headphones are ~10x (not exaggerating) better than anything played at 'mild inconvenience' levels in public. I can also play it at an ear-safe volume because of ANC. Yes, they can start to hurt due to the arms on my glasses but that's after 5-7 hours in a day.
