Like, what the fuck. Waiting rooms, libraries, movie theaters, on and on. That same fucking Samsung notification sound, at volume 11/10. For every notification every 20 seconds as Fox/CNN/QVC forces more and more bullshit on you and therefore us. Do you not know that you’re pissing everyone off? Do you not care? I hope it’s because you’re too stupid to turn off sound notifications, but the high volume suggests that you like it and want more. Your generation was the one making us be quiet in public spaces and now you ruin them for everybody. Seriously, fuck you.

For the record, not a boomer, but why are you targeting that group? Everywhere I go it is someone, just as often young as old, that thinks I want to hear their notifications, tiktok, or whatever bullshit of the day they want everyone to hear.

It's almost always old people with their sound on, ime

As a boomer with tinnitus, (I've had since maybe 4 years old), and now hearing loss, I can't hear shit on my cell phone at 50% volume. And I have alarms set to remind me to take certain inhalers at set times during the day, (Thanks Long Covid!). So, yeah, I have the volume up enough to probably piss you off. It pisses me off too-- I hate those things and having to live like this. But it's not like turning the volume off or down is really an option for me.

But chances are I probably forgot the damn thing at home anyway.

Get a smart watch. I have adhd and rarely register notification tones, but my watch vibrating usually gets my attention. You can usually control what apps get to send notifications to it.

I have the garmin instinct and love it, but I do a lot of outdoor activities.
