my unpopular opinion is that i hate tiktok because now people just publicly watch loud ass videos in public spaces with no regard for anyone else. 100% it was not this bad with youtube, it’s such a different thing with tiktok. put on headphones. you are grown.

Girl……

This is it! This is what social media/smart tech have done! They’ve rotted away any distinction between private and public.

Yes, we do have the right to make demands on public behavior. Of course we do. Have you never heard of laws and etiquette? I’m not allowed to grocery shop naked. You can’t rummage through my purse. I can’t have a work meeting in the middle of a movie theatre.

I remember when it was taboo simply to answer your cell phone in public. The person answering would apologize and try to go to a more private area. Then public calls were normalized. Then putting people on speaker. Then listening to music without headphones. Do you know how many times I have hiked up a mountain or driven to the beach, only to be met with someone blaring shitty top 40 music from their portable speaker, because Heaven forbid you go one hour without noise?

Old woman yells at cloud and all that, but I can’t believe someone is not only admitting this behavior, but saying it’s a good thing! No one likes you! You’re a menace!

I think it’s also worth mentioning how disruptive this can be to the people who work in the service industry! If you come into a restaurant or cafe blaring your own music or talking on the phone, everyone can hear you and thinks you’re annoying. And a BIG personal pet peeve of mine is customers who are on their phone while I’m trying to take their order or ring them up. Like, it’s rude. If you’re sitting by yourself or whatever, just use earbuds or don’t do it at all. It’s distracting and honestly makes the environment super overstimulating, especially if you’re already trying to deal with the chaos of work.

Also worth mentioning that I’m SURE there are several people in public with sensory issues who get overstimulated by excess noise. There are honestly a plethora of reasons this is disrespectful.

A five-year-old child, Carver, sent Baby Yoda to firefighters in Oregon to thank them for all of their efforts.

They now take him everywhere:

Thank you, firefighters! 🙏
