Today on Twitter...

08:46 Old lady trying to read: Excuse me, could you lower that a bit? Girl listening to music very loud next to her: No, it's my ears, not yours.

08:47 Prob wouldn't have asked her myself, since I can deal for 2 min, but "my ears" suggests that only she could hear it, which was not the case

08:59 Meanwhile, the girl sheepishly lowered it while scowling, then got off at the next stop...so why be a bitch if you're just going to comply?
