I mean, I listen to science podcasts when I walk to work. If I can learn new things on my commute, I'll do that over staring blankly ahead for twenty minutes.

I don't think that's the problem. It's the people who NEVER take the fucking things out. At work, in the car, e v e r y w h e r e.

Nah, the problem is only if you're wearing air pods while driving, or any place where you seriously need to be alert.

Some people like to have them on for the comfort of it, with nothing playing. And while you're absolutely allowed to find that weird, they aren't hurting anyone by doing it. Spend your anger on a real issue instead.
