Is there anything more annoying than someone using their speaker phone in public?

Why the hell would you put it on speaker in a public setting and sit around screaming into the screen on your iPhome.

That same demographic likes to listen to shitty rap music on their phone speakers in public.

Nothing that pisses me off more than being ear raped by shitty rap while waiting in line to buy a gatorade at a gas station.

I've almost started a thread about this many times.

I can't tell you how often I'm commuting home from work and people on the train are having a full conversation with their phone on speakerphone, or someone is listening to music with the speakers rather than putting in headphones.

Drives me insane.

One time in the waiting room at the doctor's office this 50-something year old Hispanic guy pulled out his phone and started watching WWE wrestling with the volume at the max.

Everyone was just kind of like wtf?

Is that more annoying than talking on speaker in public? I don't know but it was weird.

Love seeing this in the airport. Then the user looking around like everyone there is disturbing his personal conversation.

I can at least appreciate the fact that if someone doing that has a decent sound system.

99/100 it's someone with old paper 6x9s sitting on the back dash that put out more distortion than actual music.

Annoying as hell... the proper response is to audio bomb their call with something that you discern would be troublesome for the idiot on the phone.

IE > in the airport and a guy is sitting there doing the loud phone thing so I sit behind and say, loudly, "let's go the girls are in the limo waiting for us". He moved.

Or when you're on a business call and the other end of the line has you on speaker and you can only understand every other word.

These people are bad. Almost equally as bad are the people that use the tiny bluetooth headsets so they either look like they are talking to themselves or you think they are talking to you.

I also HATE IT when someone's loud arse ringtone goes off, and they pick their phone up, look at their screen for 15 seconds, don't answer it, and don't bother turning off their annoying arse ring. I'm sorry, Dick, I don't care to have the fricking Darth Vader theme song blaring in my ear.

Just carry one of those small cans of Air-Horn with you and blast it at 'em. If they give you a look, just ask, "what, you don't like other people with annoying noise-making devices?"
