People don't know how to be considerate in public anymore

188 Upvotes

Not every person, clearly, but enough that people now think that telling them to be more considerate of others in public is "rude" and "controlling."

Loud car enjoyers - inconsiderate. No, it's not "just for a few seconds" I have to put up with your loud car rolling through my area, and why are y'all doing it after 10pm? Did you forget you're being obnoxiously noisy after quiet hours or something?

Loud music enjoyers - Dude, who asked to listen to your taste in music all throughout town? We all don't have the same tastes, and no, we don't all need to hear your "superior" (subjective!) taste.

Speakerphones in public - really? and then you look at people like they're off their nut when they join in? There are options if you're hard of hearing that don't involve speakerphone.

Facetiming and including randos in your facetime - did I ask to be filmed? no. Knock that off.
Same with filming randos in public for 'content' - Get a damn life.

Deciding you don't need headphones on public transit of any kind - No one asked about your tiktok feed. Or your music. Or your youtube choices. Any of that. Bluetooth headphones aren't that expensive, go get some.

You may feel like you're the main character in your story, but you are not the main character in anyone else's. You're either just another person or a source of annoyance. Choose wisely.

When people conflate respecting someone’s privacy with a lack of curiosity

4 Upvotes

Some of the most insensitive and nosy people say that their curiosity is a sign of intelligence, and that people who don’t pry into personal details that are none of their business are just less intelligent than them.
