        If they were talking with somebody standing next to them, would you do the same? Ask them to please shut up? If not, why is this different?

        Asking out of real curiosity. I don’t mind if people talk close to me in a puplic place, as I don’t demand silence around me. Never cares for if it’s on the phone or in person.

          The difference is that when there are two people having a conversation they aren’t almost screaming, because they understand each other. Those using their phones like that however…

          And yes, I tell them their shit doesn’t interest anyone. It’s helping when you look like an bad angry bearded biker.
