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.
It’s so fucking annoying. Your phone shouldn’t really make ANY sound as far as I’m concerned, but I’ll allow a low volume ring or single beep or bloop for a notification. But if your phone feels the need to make a sound every 20 seconds while you’re looking at the fucking thing, you need to turn that shit off.
Oh, my absolute favorites are the people that have the volume all the way up and send text messages. You get to hear the send/receive text alert over and over. Then there’s the ones that get the phone call with the obnoxiously loud ring, take forever to find their phone, look at it (still ringing loudly) to see who is calling, and don’t silence the ring while they decide whether or not to answer.
I see you’ve met my dad.
Lol, he must hang out in airports a lot.
My parents do this. I’ll be sitting across the room at night, playing some hades on my steam deck, and I’ll suddenly get jumpscared by my mum browsing facebook
Nah it’s Gen Z and their loud iPhone bell notifications.
WE’RE IN CLASS!! SILENCE YOUR PHONES DAMMIT!

No it’s any asshole listening to TikTok or YouTube on speaker
There is almost nothing worse than someone else’s tiktok feed playing out loud in the same room you are.
It’s insufferable.
Oh god. I’ve got no carpet so sound moves well through my house despite doors being closed. Hearing something looping because they set their phone down while doing something. Why at such high volume child? After about 5 loops I yell.
OH NO
OH NO
OH NO NO NO
Constantly.
Back in my day, we let the entire ringtone play out because it was “Who let the dogs out”, and we paid 99 cents for it. There was no way we would admit that paying for a ringtone was a dumb idea, so we had to justify it any time we got a phone call.
(By we, I mean millennials, but I never did buy a ringtone. Never understood it, and have used vibrate since my first phone.)
It’s fun to watch people who probably get pissed off about ableism think it doesn’t apply when they’re mad about old people losing their hearing because they are a political monolith who all voted for Romney and Trump.
Do you know what makes hearing videos and stuff on your phone easier when you have hearing loss? Fucking headphones.
You can put your damn phone on silent hearing loss or not.
That’s a pretty weak argument considering that there are other ways to get notifications, such as vibration. Also, if you’re getting notifications every minute or two, there’s no reason to have it play a sound or do anything else. The only reason you need to be notified is when it’s an infrequent occurrence.
They see it as a status symbol, like the iPhone tone when the original iphone was released. Idiots.
I heard a Samsung whistle that ended in a fart sound…12 times in less than five minutes. All numbers are estimated, but I feel like I am undershooting it.
Don’t try to hang Android phones on boomers. Boomers are dipshits with tech and iphones are designed for toddlers. Majority of boomers use iPhones.
We refer to iphones as boomerphones 😂
Word
I dont read before responding because what someone else says is irrelevant to me.
Keep shovelin
Every phone out there that can be heard by people 100m away is the indication of a garbage person, that’s not linked to a brand or a specific group.
Seriously, fuck you.
They are butter spread too thin.
I had the Samsung notification whistle down pat back in the S3/S4/S5 era. Everyone had that as their default and it was so easy to fuck with people.
My mom tried to watch Chinese drama shows on public transport. I told her to stop it before some pissed off hillbilly use violence (for context: at the time, there were some news reports of people getting shot for blasting loud music from their car)
Now that same hillbilly would come up to your mother and try to speak to her in broken Mandarin that they learned on RedNote.
Ni hao. Ni hao ma? Wo hen hao.
Sorry I haven’t learnt how to write Chinese yet.
你好
你是个笨蛋
操你妈,闭嘴

I don’t believe you. <checks> eh. coulda been worse.
我要打破你的菊花.
The users on rednote are so friendly, teaching us common greetings in Chinese.

Hotdang, nailed it first try!
Yea I honestly have seen a huge uptick of it in the last few months. Like why the fuck are you setting your email notification to machine gun volleys or fucking crowd cheers.
