Missing Peace The speakerphone paradox

Post image

I was at the pool today when a woman started having a conversation on her phone using the speaker.

I politely asked her if she could not use the speaker and pointed to my headphones.
She said, “I don’t have headphones.”
So I said, “You can just hold the phone next to your ear.”

She looked at me with a completely blank expression and said, “I’m on speakerphone.”
I said, “Well… that’s the problem.”

Apparently, we had reached the limits of modern technology.

How about AITA? No one has ever been the asshole

Am I the asshole for getting upset at my friend for beheading my mother and urinating on my face?!?!?

I'm upset that I had to pay extra for that in Pattaya, but you just got it for free. Ridiculous.

How about "mildly infuriating" where every other post is like 

"Some crazed homeless man broke into my house, sprayed feces all over my furniture and the responding officer shot my dog. Overall 3/5 not bad not terrible".

The ones that are the asshole get downvoted and/ore delete their post real quick. At least the genuine ones. The rest are fake.
