Boomers do alot of annoying arse shite but this is definitely a millennial things.

The worst are the fricktards that use their phone like a boom box and play their shitty reggaeton at full volume

A $12 pair of wired headphones come with a mic

I think that's the other part that annoys me. In a time where everyone has headphones in their ears, these assholes have to be on speaker.

I don’t know anybody under 30 that uses speakerphone. However I have seen when somebody is using speakerphone in public it’s black women.

I see it all the time but I'm in no way limiting it to one demographic. It just seems to be the one I see the most.

I find this problem usually arises with another group not defined by age

My favorite are the retards who use it while driving because in their primitive brains it’s “hands free”


Ill take this one step further and bring up people that wear headphones in the car. Am I missing something? Hearing is a valuable part of driving. If you forget to check your blind spot and attempt to merge, good luck hearing someones horn over 21 Savage blaring in your ear. I dont get it. Hook your shite to your car.

Not racist, but 90% of the people that did this while I was at UT were African Americans, with about 90% of that 90% being women.


In my experience, many of them are obese. I think their fat arms don't have the stamina to hold the phone to their ear. That's why they use speaker.

Huge pet peeve of mine. Along with people who will talk on a cell phone while you're at a restaurant eating lunch/dinner.

There's a guy at work who uses speaker exclusively in his cubicle. Doesn't matter if it's 30 seconds or an hour. Speaker. He does a lot of other annoying things and no one likes him.

My experience is a lot of older people have terrible cell phone etiquette also.


It seems people of all ages tend to act as if they were the only motherfricker on the planet.
