STFU 6 months ago
I guess you’ve never experienced asking, and then having the person(s) act out from turning up the volume, aggression, following you on you hike or off the bus. All these things have happened around me or to me. I’ve stopped asking. It’s not worth the risk.
People doing these kinds of things don’t give a F about anyone else. They’re terrible “humans” and should be treated as such.
