I don’t agree with death penalty, but think I’d consider it for this…

Woman on the train next to me is scrolling through reels with the volume on. No headphones. How socially inept do you have to be to think this is ok?

Immediate death penalty 😁

Absolutely not at all unreasonable of you.

I wouldn't go as far as that. I would have their phones taken off them and crushed.

Same for phone zombies walking along completely oblivious to their surroundings.

I have just come from the GP’s surgery. Me and one other person sitting in the waiting room. Yup, you guessed it, she’s sitting there watching videos with the volume on. I gave her ‘the look’ and she snapped at me really rudely. I mean - a doctor’s surgery?!?

I had it last week in a waiting room in Harley Street as well. I cannot fathom why people think this is ok.

I was prepared to say that those from the Epstein Files absolutely should have the death penalty on the table but we all know that money talks!

Anyway, YANBU! That is the height of inconsiderate behaviour on a train.

ETA - My DH does this at home whilst sitting on the sofa and it drives me mad there. I tell him to pack it in though.

I think you needed to put ‘lighthearted’ in your title OP as some people think you are being unreasonable 🤣

Justified. I just stick death metal on full blast on my phone to counter it, usually gets them to pack it in.

😂😂

Sadly I’m with two teens who I fear might send me to guillotine if I try that.
