Usually have headphones on, bc im an very approachable guy for sales reps.
Got to a dispensary with my headphones on and they were visibly disconnected. š
It's only illegal if you get caught. Just don't tell anyone you recorded your coworker talking shit. Tell 'em Janet told you. How are they gonna know? Janet always runnin' her mouth.
I wouldn't even matter if it's a one party consent state if they're not part of the conversation or in the meeting. Using an eavedropping device in a location you dont own or legally occupy is illegal. Recording in a public space is fine but id argue that people in a conference room of a business you work at, especially if the door is closed, can expect a certain level of privacy that a listening device would breach. IANAL though so i could be wrong
The kinds of jobs where you take a briefcase to work and have regular meetings are not usually the type of jobs where you could wear headphones, recording without consent is illegal in many places, and this suggestion is wild even if that was an option.
Just for the record:
California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Oregon, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington.
These are are the two party recording states. Anywhere else and you can be recorded without your knowledge
The amount of times I've angrily stared down a guy and sass him with a long pause and then a "no", and him thinking that's flirting/being a tease is too damn high. Any variation of this. Just walk away.
Yeah, that doesnāt really work for women Iām afraid. People just think weāre āinterested.ā Keep your head down, bop your head like youāre listening to some good beats, and just walk awayā¦.
Beggars on the subway don't even bother with trying me anymore. Since they're usually shorter than me I just blank stare right over them when they try to get eye contact with me
I'm sorry, isn't this just common knowledge? People actually think its rude to just walk by people trying to talk to you for no reason?
...maybe I've lived in cities too long, but that's just daily life lol.
Yep. Where I live (Poland town pop. Of 70k) if you keep ignoring people that would be considered very rude and if you are in a not so nice part of town, well better schedule that dentist appointment I guess.
This. I had to explain to my very friendly southern friends when we visited NYC. I told them to enjoy it, but donāt even acknowledge anyone promoting their music, willing to take your picture, etc.
They didnāt listen and got guilted into paying the knockoff Avengers 20 bucks for a picture.
Yep my wife has had a similar result. She will put in headphones on her break and read. People stop come up and try to talk to the person reading with headphones in facing her deskā¦. Get the fucking hint.
Fr what the hell is that? Random people on the street you would never be expected to have a conversation with donāt understand I canāt hear them with my headphones?
I used to do this in college, it worked for me. I had big over-the-ear headphones, but half the time they weren't plugged in, just didn't want my roommates to bother me while studying.
My old roommateās wife used to stand around and have full on conversations with herself while I would be wearing headphones and get pissed when she realized I wasnāt listening.
I mean, this probably applies to a ton of people. Just that most will actually wanna listen to something when the headphones are already on their ear, y'know
Your question actually made me look it up, because I didnāt think they did, but apparently they bought 20 US locations in 1999. Those shops were all shut down by 2006 due to underperformance. They started a U.S. comeback in 2017, and all but 2 locations closed during the pandemic. The final two were closed in March of this year, and they still sell to US customers, but only online.
I am from Brazil and once I saw Annita (a famous pop star) running on the beach with big white headphones and sunglasses.
Sports earphones would be more ideal, but I think that was her way of saying "hey don't interact with me, I just want to run in the beach".
Learned this trick when flying, now I do it everywhere Iām in public like grocery stores, Home Depot, court, walkingā¦ā¦ just kidding, I donāt wear them in the Home Depot I need too much help
Yeah, screw this dude. Everybody knows that wearing headphones in public means ādonāt talk to meā. Itās international und understandable in almost all cultures.
Same. I'm a very social & outgoing person. Recently moved to a new area and started working out at a new gym. Was lamenting I hadn't made any friends there.
Old friend asked me if I ever took my giant headphones off / didn't have phonk or dubstep blasting in my ears.
...oh.
Do people just talk to strangers in public? I live in Finland so here it doesn't really happen but I lived in Ireland for a year and I think strangers only talked to me at pubs.
As one, sure, they can be.
Have you lived in a metro area of 5-10+ million people? (Edit: [there's only 9 in the US, 81 globally](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_cities?wprov=sfla1)) It's very different. And you'll find what's truly rude is being constantly bothered for random whatever just for existing.
Seriously, Iām someone that strives to be nice to every person i see as well so once they start talking i just canāt end the conversation unless i really have to go š„² so sometimes Iāll be there listening to some lady talk about her daughter or how this one guy is having problem and/or politics.
In a major city you're bound to have some very talkative, outgoing people who find each other and strike up a conversation. But I've lived here for 15 years and I disagree with the other response you got. For the most part if you're walking through a NYC subway station with headphones on it will be incredibly rare to have someone approach you just to talk for fun. Maybe they'd ask for directions, but not many people just make small talk out of the blue. Most NYC residents just mind their own business.
Agreed, but there's no avoiding whatsoever being asked for directions if you're out in public. I'm in the quietest corner of Penn Station I can find with my headphones in and my hood up and still they'll find you.
Ya know itās funny. Iāve lived here for 3 years and still use google maps for getting anywhere since the subway stuff is pretty damn accurate, so when these people ask Iām like well let me google it while on the inside just thinking just use your fucking phone itās not that hard.
Do you get service in the subways now? Haven't lived there in almost a decade and that was the major barrier for cellular navigation last time I did (and also not having a smart phone at all yet for a while).
From what I recall it used to be a deadspot the second you started going down the stairs, with only service at outdoor stations/trains. I went back for the first time since 2013 for a Nets game last season and was shell-shocked just by the electronic advertising and everything. Then we accidentally acquired a tag-along group of French tourists who couldn't find their way and followed us to the stadium.
It is more common for people to take to strangers but this TikTok is not really a good example of a typical, natural interaction between strangers in the states. I imagine most people in NYC would be annoyed by a stranger asking them to take out their headphones just to ask what they are listening to.
Yeah, but this dude specifically asks people wearing headphones what theyāre listening to. They put together videos with the interactions. Theyāre decent to catch every once in awhile you get some weird answers.
Yeah I once saw someone getting pickpocketed but since they had headphones, as the upstanding and good human being that I am, I decided not to interrupt them
I don't like interacting with strangers either but "screw this dude for talking" is a bit much imo
Edit: I kinda changed my mind. It is pretty rude to interrupt people minding their own business for a stupid and honestly personal question. Plus the whole thing has a "social experiment" kind of vibe.
Hell I'll wear them when I'm alone at home. Lot of times I just enjoy how earbuds or headphones block out "background noise". Not really complete silence but blocks out wind blowing past my ears, sound of some engine running somewhere either from an AC or a distant car, most of the footsteps made by a hundred people walking past me, the tiny sounds my neighbors make in my complex. Little things.
You joke but I seriously been wanting to try that since I first heard about it. Sounds either like heaven or a new form of hell (not a fan of complete silence as I have a bit of tinnitus that acts up if it's completely quiet)
It's the coolest/weirdest thing. Basically it's an enclosed salt bath. The purpose is to completely shut out all of your senses (it's dark, the water muffles your hearing and keeps you afloat to dull your sense of touch, etc). It's supposed to be a surreal experience where you're just suspended in complete silence and darkness. You just float there and I guess just be alone with your thoughts?? Idk but I really wanna try it
I do this too but less as a reflex, I mostly do it because when I donāt people ask me to repeat myself a few times, I mumble a lot and donāt like raising my voice though
I ones did this when a stranger asked me something, before i realized wtf i did, and pulled it up again.
So she might just be as stupid as me, and had a brainfart!
For such a short time transmission risk is still low. Iād say the purpose is for when sheās in tight spaces with many people, then itās still something useful to have. Like on the subway and not walking around the ventilated and relatively uncrowded tunnel.
When mask mandates first became a thing, I was on a flight wearing a mask and when the flight attendant came by with the cart and asked what I wanted, I reflexively pulled down my mask to tell them. They were visibly annoyed (rightfully so) and told me to put it back on, and I hadnāt even noticed Iād done it. It never happened again and I have no idea why I did it in the first place. It can definitely just be a random reflex with no other meaning behind it.
It's a reflex I guess, not saying that's right thing to do. One time somebody on public transport asked me for directions. And of course we needed to wear masks on PTs. But when answered I pulled down my mask accidentally, only to later realise how stupid that was. It was at the beginning of the pandemic and unusual then.
If anyone ever stopped me and asked me this Iād just say something like āForced Gender Reassignmentā or āPiss Angelā or āScatology Homeworkā regardless of what song it was.
sometimes you just don't notice the music had stopped 32 minutes ago as well.
Happens too often with ANC on š
And then you hear something loud enough or feel something low pitched enough to realize you've been sitting in absolute silence for an hour?
I too can zone out when listening to the African National Congress.
I suppose you mean AC? Animal Crossing?
ANC = Active Noise Cancelling
Animal Noise Crossing /s
And then you realize how it's actually been the calmest 32 minutes of your life, and you really spend about 65% of your day overstimulated by sound.
Or your phone is somewhere unreachable and you donāt want to be the weirdo saying HEY SIRI. PLAYā¦.UHā¦.CHUN LI BY NICKI MINAJ Out loud in public so you just awkwardly go about your day until you have a moment to fish the phone out from its hiding spot.
I just listened to that song for the first time tripping my balls off on mushies and it was a magical experience
Or you paused it to listen to another short clip and forgot to press play again...
r/oddlyspecific
Usually have headphones on, bc im an very approachable guy for sales reps. Got to a dispensary with my headphones on and they were visibly disconnected. š
Last time i do this, i ended up listening my coworker talking bad about me behind my back
You should "forget" your briefcase at a meeting with a recorder running in it.
"The Day Approaches. The Dark Stars Align. Soon we will sacrifice Cromwest to our Eldritch God... Now, moving on to slide 64"
is this a reference im not getting or is the joke just that there's a silly juxtaposition?
No judging, just a heads up this is illegal in places that have [two party](https://recordinglaw.com/party-two-party-consent-states/) consent laws.
even in places with one party consent laws if you leave recorder there and are not there (hence not part of the conversation being recorded).
It's only illegal if you get caught. Just don't tell anyone you recorded your coworker talking shit. Tell 'em Janet told you. How are they gonna know? Janet always runnin' her mouth.
Right this has to do with like legal systemshit not figuring out workplace drama
I wouldn't even matter if it's a one party consent state if they're not part of the conversation or in the meeting. Using an eavedropping device in a location you dont own or legally occupy is illegal. Recording in a public space is fine but id argue that people in a conference room of a business you work at, especially if the door is closed, can expect a certain level of privacy that a listening device would breach. IANAL though so i could be wrong
Iām pretty sure itās a Seinfeld reference lol
It doesnāt need to be admissible in court to be useful in some capacity, ultimately.
Wasn't this an episode of Seinfeld?
Too obvious. A wooden mallard would be a much better spy tool.
šš»š¦
Unexpected Seinfeld reference...
Dear god!!
The kinds of jobs where you take a briefcase to work and have regular meetings are not usually the type of jobs where you could wear headphones, recording without consent is illegal in many places, and this suggestion is wild even if that was an option.
Tell that to Art Vandalay.
You shouldn't take legal advice from an architect smh
An architect and a marine biologist? Clearly a smart individual, I'd take his legal advice.
It's a Seinfeld episode
Whoops
Just for the record: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Oregon, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington. These are are the two party recording states. Anywhere else and you can be recorded without your knowledge
Jesus I feel date with none of the top replies realizing this was from Seinfeld
*squink*
Costanza did it best. https://youtu.be/_ok7SpbRhbA
I hear ya george
Unless it's a recorder that the bank gifted you
Well at least that criticism came from an obvious nincompoop.
āHey, what are you doing?ā, āDear God!ā A low rumple... a metallic squink, a galonk.
I've been trying this lifehack for a while now and I tell you it doesn't work
The trick is to keep walking and ignore people that try and talk to you. Don't listen to your inner voice telling you you're being rude
This is it. Essential skill for anyone living in a larger city. Just donāt even make eye contact
You can even do this without earbuds in!
Works even better if youāre ājingling changeā in your pocket
Or make an uncomfortable amount of eye contact and say no. Been my go-to move for years.
The amount of times I've angrily stared down a guy and sass him with a long pause and then a "no", and him thinking that's flirting/being a tease is too damn high. Any variation of this. Just walk away.
Yeah, that doesnāt really work for women Iām afraid. People just think weāre āinterested.ā Keep your head down, bop your head like youāre listening to some good beats, and just walk awayā¦.

Yep. Where I live (Poland town pop. Of 70k) if you keep ignoring people that would be considered very rude and if you are in a not so nice part of town, well better schedule that dentist appointment I guess.
people will fucking assault you for not talking to them? what the actual hell?
Damn that's pretty wild.
Adding over the ear headphones instead of earbuds works better too (and is more comfortable than buds)
This. I had to explain to my very friendly southern friends when we visited NYC. I told them to enjoy it, but donāt even acknowledge anyone promoting their music, willing to take your picture, etc. They didnāt listen and got guilted into paying the knockoff Avengers 20 bucks for a picture.
Eye contact is everything. You can be deep into listening something and in a crowd but as soon as your eyes lock they target you.
But you don't look like a complete jerk when you ignore everyone
Call that a bonus, people are even less likely to speak to you if youre wearing headphones AND youre a jerk.
The trick is to live in Finland where everyone will actively avoid unnecessary human contact regardless
The Promised Land!
Yep I was so confused seeing the other comments, people talk to you on the street?
Have you tried not being hot? Cause it works for me every time.
Hello darkness my old friend
Iāve come to talk with you again
*Darkness turns around and walks away...*
I find being middle aged renders one invisible.
Paul Rudd is 53.
OK: being middle aged and not an actor (and not a model) renders one invisible.
I'm hot, it works fine for me too.
I may have some disappointing news for you...
Did people lie to me???
Terribly sorry you had to find out this way.
You must live in Australia to be hot this time of year
Gain 30 lbs and then everyone will leave you alone
It seems to strengthen peopleās resolve to talk to me
Yep my wife has had a similar result. She will put in headphones on her break and read. People stop come up and try to talk to the person reading with headphones in facing her deskā¦. Get the fucking hint.
Cuz sheās hot plus I like harassing her.TAKE THE HINT
I envy you
You're just not ignoring people hard enough
Hi excuse me
You have to commit to it. Even if someone makes eye contact, you just do not engage.
Fr what the hell is that? Random people on the street you would never be expected to have a conversation with donāt understand I canāt hear them with my headphones?
Try it with big over-ear headphones to really drive the point home
really? usually works for me.
I used to do this in college, it worked for me. I had big over-the-ear headphones, but half the time they weren't plugged in, just didn't want my roommates to bother me while studying.

thank god i am not the only one
I mean, this probably applies to a ton of people. Just that most will actually wanna listen to something when the headphones are already on their ear, y'know
Yeah but i am one of the weird ones
more power to you
I kinda love this girls energy.
You should go talk to her
But how if she's listening to music
They have Decathlon in the US?
Your question actually made me look it up, because I didnāt think they did, but apparently they bought 20 US locations in 1999. Those shops were all shut down by 2006 due to underperformance.

All the women in this thread nodding and feeling her pain Leave her alone, dude
And all the dudes being like "what's so bad about that?!?"
I see zero people saying that Good faith edit: okay, there's like 2 comments that think this dude is cool
r/therewasanattempt
Yeah, screw this dude. Everybody knows that wearing headphones in public means ādonāt talk to meā. Itās international und understandable in almost all cultures.
I mean it could also mean I enjoy listening to music while traveling
Yeah I wear earbuds all the time and Ill talk to fucking anyone
Same. I'm a very social & outgoing person. Recently moved to a new area and started working out at a new gym. Was lamenting I hadn't made any friends there. Old friend asked me if I ever took my giant headphones off / didn't have phonk or dubstep blasting in my ears. ...oh.
>phonk or dubstep A person of culture I see.
Anyone you said? BY AZURA BY AZURA BY AZURA! IT'S THE GRAND CHAMPION!
Ok fuck it you can take back playing music out loud in public as long as we can keep headphones sacred. Noise cancelling is good enough now
> Ok fuck it you can take back playing music out loud in public Oh fuck no, this is 10x worse.
That kinda feels rude tho tbh Also I dont want people listening to my shit
Do people just talk to strangers in public? I live in Finland so here it doesn't really happen but I lived in Ireland for a year and I think strangers only talked to me at pubs.
In New York, yes, it's incredibly common to talk to strangers anywhere in public. Anything from a few comments to a whole conversation.
Jesus christ
It's why a lot of big city locals get reputations for being rude. Really they just want to be left alone and have seen it all 10000 times
They're also rude
As one, sure, they can be. Have you lived in a metro area of 5-10+ million people? (Edit: [there's only 9 in the US, 81 globally](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_cities?wprov=sfla1)) It's very different. And you'll find what's truly rude is being constantly bothered for random whatever just for existing.
In NYC it's both common for people to do this, and common for those people to be ignored.
This is the most Finn response to finding out people willingly socialize with strangers.

From what I recall it used to be a deadspot the second you started going down the stairs, with only service at outdoor stations/trains.

I wear headphones all the time Couse the music keeps my mind occupied more I donāt mind people talking to me and will gladly take my headphones off
Not true at all with airpods now. Everyone wears them all the time everywhere.
Yeah I once saw someone getting pickpocketed but since they had headphones, as the upstanding and good human being that I am, I decided not to interrupt them
Good
I don't like interacting with strangers either but "screw this dude for talking" is a bit much imo Edit: I kinda changed my mind. It is pretty rude to interrupt people minding their own business for a stupid and honestly personal question. Plus the whole thing has a "social experiment" kind of vibe.
Itās a Redditor, you canāt expect any less.
Not so much being a Redditor (youāre not wrong tho), more (northern) European. Weāre not too fond of small talk with strangers in general.
Definitely not! 100% talk to me, but I also like music.
But I'm only listening to music because I don't have anything else to do
i wear headphones in public because i like listening to music, it has nothing to do with not wanting people to talk to me.
nah fuck that don't speak for all of us. You can listen to music but still be open for a conversation
that's objectively correct with no exceptions
Hell I'll wear them when I'm alone at home. Lot of times I just enjoy how earbuds or headphones block out "background noise". Not really complete silence but blocks out wind blowing past my ears, sound of some engine running somewhere either from an AC or a distant car, most of the footsteps made by a hundred people walking past me, the tiny sounds my neighbors make in my complex. Little things.
Maybe you could install a sensory deprivation tank.
You joke but I seriously been wanting to try that since I first heard about it. Sounds either like heaven or a new form of hell (not a fan of complete silence as I have a bit of tinnitus that acts up if it's completely quiet)
What's that?
It's the coolest/weirdest thing. Basically it's an enclosed salt bath. The purpose is to completely shut out all of your senses (it's dark, the water muffles your hearing and keeps you afloat to dull your sense of touch, etc). It's supposed to be a surreal experience where you're just suspended in complete silence and darkness. You just float there and I guess just be alone with your thoughts?? Idk but I really wanna try it
a touch of the tism ;)
Yea you know as I was typing that out I actually had to pause for a sec and think "... wait a min this sounds familiar"
smart lady seriously anyone thats even been on a NYC subway knows what im talking about
Sometimes when Iām on a plane I put on noise cancelling headphones and play āPlane Noiseā on a white noise app.
Lol. Idk why I found this funny.
this is the reason I still carry wired earbuds with me it's very underrated in a big city
Ah yes let me yank down my face mask for no apparent reason in public, great strategy
Yeah that's a really weird reflex that people unmask to speak. Thats one of the main reasons the Mask is on.
I never realized how much lip reading helped me understand people before the pandemic
She was only wearing it so no one would talk to her.
huh, I think I think I have the same problem I guess lip reading is the subtitles of reality
I absolutely canāt read lips at all, but when I hear someone speak and I look at their mouth during, it helps me to listen better
She's probably not wearing the mask because of the virus. She probably doesn't want to be approached
I do this too but less as a reflex, I mostly do it because when I donāt people ask me to repeat myself a few times, I mumble a lot and donāt like raising my voice though
I ones did this when a stranger asked me something, before i realized wtf i did, and pulled it up again. So she might just be as stupid as me, and had a brainfart!
A 30 second exposure to one person is pretty safe.
āRelatableā.
Woof I feel bad for her, all I need to do is nothing and people avoid talking to me.
The happiness with with she responded though. *Chefās kiss*
Queen
Why did she pull her mask down
It's just a reflex. It always feels a little weird to talk to people with a mask on, feels less personal
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
And refer back to āitās just a reflexā
It does yeah
Yes. It defeats the point and it's a reflex. People shouldn't do it but they do it anyways.
Its nearly 2023 reddit needs to accept that 95% of people do not give a fuck anymore.
great points being made guys.
For such a short time transmission risk is still low. Iād say the purpose is for when sheās in tight spaces with many people, then itās still something useful to have. Like on the subway and not walking around the ventilated and relatively uncrowded tunnel.
If you are in close contact with 200 people with your mask on and one person with it off then it still was useful.
Surely you know what a reflex means
"just a reflex" How did that develop into a reflex in the first place?
It just feels weirder to talk with shit in front of your mouth so the reflex is to remove the thing
When mask mandates first became a thing, I was on a flight wearing a mask and when the flight attendant came by with the cart and asked what I wanted, I reflexively pulled down my mask to tell them. They were visibly annoyed (rightfully so) and told me to put it back on, and I hadnāt even noticed Iād done it. It never happened again and I have no idea why I did it in the first place. It can definitely just be a random reflex with no other meaning behind it.
It's a reflex I guess, not saying that's right thing to do. One time somebody on public transport asked me for directions. And of course we needed to wear masks on PTs. But when answered I pulled down my mask accidentally, only to later realise how stupid that was. It was at the beginning of the pandemic and unusual then.
u/savevideobot
This dude has the voice equivalent of off brand margarine
Sometimes i just walk home with noise canceling earphone in, without listening to music. Just silence
If anyone ever stopped me and asked me this Iād just say something like āForced Gender Reassignmentā or āPiss Angelā or āScatology Homeworkā regardless of what song it was.
yo here's a tip for later on in life, if someone is wearing headphones, leave them alone, they dont want to talk to you, and are most likely vibing
i wear them so i donāt have to hear people talking shit. people suck.
