What if it's quiet piano music so my infant won't cry? (he is scared of buses)

City people have fucked priorities. I moved to a large city from a small rural town, and it's nothing but noise 24/7.

People yelling, construction happening, people watching TV with the window open, babies crying, dogs barking, birds calling, cars constantly rumbling by and hitting potholes so loudly it sounds like an explosion, acs running, radio from businesses, crowd noises, hundreds of thousands of little bits of metal and plastic clinging and clanging and pinging and popping, shoes on concrete clicking and clacking, airplanes, conversations going on, gunshots and concerts and car alarms and sirens and parties and car radios all the way up and... Even in the dead of night when it's all died down, there is this constant low hum coming from the city.

But specifically fuck the people who play music on their phone i guess.

This person should text-to-speech this tweet on public transport

Seems reasonable.

Aight, someone explain their point of view please. What level of volume severity have you commenters experienced? Someone listening to something has never bothered me, but it also has never been loud enough I can't have a conversation with someone. Most restaurants play music louder than I hear from a stranger's speakers. I don't get what is rude about it. Even the Everett True comic below, several of you are that on edge about a person whistling or humming to themself?

This man is incapable of having a bad take.

More merciful than I would be if I got to pick the punishment.
