This was surprising and irritating to me, when I first came to the U.S. I have had the pleasure of experiencing this everywhere - elevators (what kind of person thinks it is a good idea to play loud music in a tiny space like an elevator?), subway cars, Cafes (they play music on top of the music the coffee shop plays) and even in planes.
- RandallBrown 3y agoI've never seen behavior like this anywhere else in the US in similar contexts. If you did this on an airplane people would yell at you and the flight attendants would make you stop.
- tayo42 3y agoWhat mythical country are you from where this doesn't go on? Ime this behavior crosses cultures, country and social class
- DangitBobby 3y agoNot true. Very few people do this in an enclosed space where I live. They aren't doing it on the plane, at the gym, in the store, in the restaurant, etc. Unfortunately people do seem to think it's cool to play their music outdoors just about everywhere, though.
- tayo42 3y agoHow can you say those without including where you live lol
- DangitBobby 3y agoI'm not comfortable being too specific about where I live, but I've lived in a couple of large cities in Tennessee and been all over the state, and my previous comment applies to all of them. I can say the same for all of the other cities I regularly visit as well.
- midoridensha 3y ago>What mythical country are you from where this doesn't go on? Japan. This kind of inconsiderate BS almost never happens here. The rare times you do see horribly inconsiderate behavior, it's almost always a foreigner.
- pauldenton 3y agoJapan. Singapore. South Korea.
