The New York Times lobby - Midtown Manhattan |
On a bright Sunday morning, I took an Amtrak train to New York City to visit a friend and see the Phillies lose to the Mets. Fourth of July weekend was in full swing. I couldn't wait to see Pete and slug beers while we caught up. Nothing can stop my good mood.
Although, while maintaining face and composure I was reminded of a few annoyances that used to trigger negative feeling. Many things agitate me. Two of them are people who play music too loud on their headphones while in a quiet place and, more potently, individuals who hum to themselves while in a public, quiet place.
Do you like being a public disturbance? Does making noise for personal enjoyment while ruining other people's silence titillate you? Did you forget to bring your social norms to the train station?
Awkward.
