My heartbeat just goes up. It just triggers me so fucking much.

Even talking does’t trigger me that much, it’s something about that phone speaker’s weak crackling sound, I despise that. It’s like the REVERSE of asmr.

      I blame Apple. They removed the headphone-jack, and suddenly access to headphones went from “included” to “buy our expensive AirPods”. Other brands went with it too. I guess this increased cultural tolerance for ‘loud-watching’ in public, presumably starting with kids (who it would be wasteful to buy AirPods for, seeing how easy it is to lose them). Unless everyone had perfect manners, this result was inevitable.

      Because I’m at the pub with my friends, not bringing headphones that I will lose because I’m a drunkard

      Modern headphones are so much better than any way of listening to music there has ever been, and yet people still use their tiny phone speaker loaded with microscopic metal shavings, dust and skin oil clogging it. It’s unbelievable, really.
