City people have fucked priorities. I moved to a large city from a small rural town, and it's nothing but noise 24/7.

People yelling, construction happening, people watching TV with the window open, babies crying, dogs barking, birds calling, cars constantly rumbling by and hitting potholes so loudly it sounds like an explosion, acs running, radio from businesses, crowd noises, hundreds of thousands of little bits of metal and plastic clinging and clanging and pinging and popping, shoes on concrete clicking and clacking, airplanes, conversations going on, gunshots and concerts and car alarms and sirens and parties and car radios all the way up and... Even in the dead of night when it's all died down, there is this constant low hum coming from the city.

But specifically fuck the people who play music on their phone i guess.

What if it's quiet piano music so my infant won't cry? (he is scared of buses)

This person should text-to-speech this tweet on public transport

Seems reasonable.

This man is incapable of having a bad take.

More merciful than I would be if I got to pick the punishment.

I loved the film Do The Right Thing as a kid. It was one of my favorite Spike Lee joints.

Radio Raheem was an icon to me. The sound of hip hop in the street. It makes me sad how many people no longer want to interact with others in public.

The typical offender here is the well-to-do Canadian kid blasting gangsta rap in the back of the bus as though he's hard. He also has that early Justin Bieber accent down to a science. Hailing from the Detroit area myself and having spent nearly a decade in this province, I don't think this kid has ever met a gangsta in his life.

It feels like this is getting worse every year. If you're going to do this, at least get a quality boombox with good music like Radio Raheem.
