Default Why do people insist on playing music on their mobile phone through the loud speaker?

In this modern age of mp3 players, digital recording and stereo sound why do the bling bling chav crowd insist on playing music through the mono speaker on their mobile phones...why do they elect to listen to their music through such an inferior sound system... I mean at least in the 80's when peoplpe had ghetto blasters...the sound quality was at least worth it...even if you did not like the music! Why do they do it?

In fact, why would anyone would not listen to their music through their headphones and instead want EVERYONE to listen to their music even though they don't won't too?

I hate visual/audio CAPTCHAs. They keep bots...and deafblind people...out.

What about the Closed Captions on TV that barely resemble what's being said!

I hate when people call me stupid or an idiot for misunderstanding something.

Don't let anybody call you stupid!
Give it right back to them.

True. Maybe THEY didn't phrase it correctly in the first place?
People sometimes know what they're thinking but what comes out of their mouth can be something entirely different.

How rude! Obviously they are the ones who need to look closer to home when 'stupidity' is a part of their vocabulary.

Sounds like someone who hasn't grown up, no matter what their age. Some people never see things from the other person's point of view.
