I used to have men come up to me all the fucking time at the gym to talk despite my earbuds. They would actually motion at me to take them out so that they could talk to me.

Super annoying! Not sure why it stopped…

My headphones passed through sound and I kept that feature on

What really annoyed me though was being interrupted whilst eating

My mom.just keeps talking and talking even when I'm trying to focus on something. Eventually she starts yelling at me to take them out and that I'm very rude for not listening.

they got the picture really fast for me, as I ignored them intentionally until they tried something other than talking endlessly in my ear. "My headphones are noise cancelling I can't hear you"

then again I didn't use them in communal areas unless I was getting a snack, and if I did thst I generally had pass through enabled, so my family would need to go into my room or den, and then try to talk to me.

The amount of entitlement if they entered my room then bitched that I was ignoring them, they would get my attention and they defo wouldn't want it anymore. I would have words lol
