I’m asking this sitting on a replacement bus, with the radio being played loud by none other than the driver himself (speakers everywhere on the bus), regularly getting static/hitches at bumps while annoying ads are being as obnoxious as possible.
At one point one of the passengers decided to listen to their own phone’s speakers instead. By instead, I mean as well.
To me it feels like fuck all changed, but it might be just my observation.



I will try again just once more (I’m also waiting for a response from the company who I have addressed these concerns to). If the reported case happens again without any intervention (I had the pleasure of listening to a full volume show for 40 minutes played by a passenger’s phone right behind the driver) then I will take matters into my own hands.
Option 1: sitting down right next to the offender and watching whatever they do from very close. If they invited me for a free audio experience then the video experience must be free, as well.
Option 2: I will just sit down right next to them and blast my music at full volume, as well. Above the Weeping World and Winter’s Gate are great albums.
