Except this is also old people

I have seen so many old people blast their phone at full volume. I have seen barely any young people do it

Then you don’t get out much

While I might not get out much, every young person I see doing this, has wireless earbuds/headphones of some sort. Like all of them… like they’re repping their brand or something. on one hand it comes off as out of touch, and oblivious to the world, but also I don’t have to hear what they’re watching, and I’m not an angry boomer, so I just shrug it off and move on with life.
