    I was at a party and another person was watching videos on their phone without headphones while everyone was watching a movie. We were all too polite to say anything because it was part of a three-day meetup for people who had been talking to each other on a forum for years and no one wanted to be critical of anyone else, but wow did it piss me off.

        I know, but I feel like that was an unusual situation- a group setting where everyone would be there for multiple days and no one knew each other in person. Sort of a ‘everyone be diplomatic’ thing so as to not make things bad for the hosts.

        Or they are asshole trash that is angry, bitter and just waiting for someone to say something so they can be the one to be in control (since God knows they aren’t in their own life) to deny everyone around them the comfort of silence or… will want to fight. You find a lot of these types on public transportation and they do it on purpose.
