America Ignorant, selfish pricks, stopped using headphones.
Let’s be real. You have to be pretty self absorbed to not realize how ignorant it is to walk around playing your music out loud or having a conversation on speakerphone instead of putting the damn phone to your ear.
And its not just flights. Its busses, restaurants, waiting rooms, forest trails.

I blame apple. It’s a direct result of them fucking with 3.5mm jack.
It used to be simple - plug in wired headphones.
Now I have to have Bluetooth headphones with shitty battery life and skills to connect them.
Guess what - my mom was able to use wired, she cannot handle wireless it’s too complicated for her.
Thank you apple assholes. All because u wanted to sell another product - people can’t use headphones anymore.
My mother does the speakerphone thing but she’s also half deaf from a lifetime of loud blue collar work. It’s never as clear cut as you think
Oh there’s an easy solution. Talk loudly right next to someone carrying on a conversation out loud on the phone.
Join the conversation.
I don’t think there’s a big difference between using the speakerphone than talking to someone next to you.
People who habitually use speaker phones do not understand the concept of “inside voice” that everyone else learned in 1st grade.
And those people should be sent to The Hell of Infinite Screaming Babies.
