Granny in the airport blasting NPR straight from her iPhone with headphones in her ears completely oblivious it’s audible to everyone within 30 ft. Annoying? Yes but also adorable. 🤣

I'm wondering what will happen if she takes her earphones out prior to pausing. Could be utter shock that NPR is now inside her head? Disbelief? Might quickly figure it out and be embarrassed? Potentially going gangsta and just letting it continue playing like just doesn't give a #%^? This could go a lot of ways.

Or you could just stop by and help her get set-up rather than gripe... even a gripe with a “that’s adorable” doesn’t improve the situation.

Seems appropriate
