You know how the salute used to be raising your hood or visor to be seen and handshake used to be showing you are unarmed I've often wondered if some day people will greet each other or show they are listening by doing a lil motion like pulling one earbud out even though earbuds have not existed for centuries and that will be the new salute or bow or whatever

hell yes, speculating about future gestures is rad

like in neal stephenson's "seveneves", there's a bit about how these future space cultures have different salutes based on how their cultural matriarchs raised their space visor when interacting with each other. it's a great lil bit of the book

Seveneves was dope, I would have read another 500 pages of future nonsense. I'm a bit of a Stephenson fanboy but the man can't write an ending to save his life.

HP: as LAP reported, this is literally the most obnoxious poo poo in the world and I swear the next person who talks to me whilst I'm wearing earbuds is going to catch some hands, seriously, I'm not trying to talk to you.

The only answer for that is fisticuffs. Either that or you do that thing you used to do when you were like ten and imitate their laughing while making a sour face.

the key here is to keep the buds in until your assailant stops moving their lips. maintain eye contact. have patience. this can take ages.

once they cease their unlawful communique, you can pull out a bud and say "pardon?". your assailant will probably be momentarily miffed at having to repeat that whole cool story they told you. maybe next time they'll pick up on your social signal, but even if they don't you have won a small victory today in terms of frustration

lol on one hand this sounds strangely possible and I applaud your cleverness, on the other hand if this happened it would definitely one of those "shaking your fist at those drat kids" situations.

is there a greater rage than that of having your earbuds ripped out by a passing doorknob?

Totally. DODO and Mongoliad had much better endings. Lmao Seveneves was just like "ok I decided to stop writing now."

I felt that post about catching your cord on a doorknob in my soul.

Worse, it's only one and it's partially out so to the outside observer you're just some weird twitchy person who can't stop playing with their ear for some reason.
