At my kid's sporting event, moved to the end of the bleachers for quiet. Guy walks up and just stands behind me before pulling out a laptop with insanely loud keys and starts pounding away. There's literally 100 feet of space he could use, but chose to stand directly behind me.

If there is a hundred feet to use then why not move yourself instead of being mildly infuriated. Don’t waste anger on something like this, it will raise your cortisol levels and age you prematurely.

    That doesn't change the fact that the person was being rude when they had no reason to do so.

    You have no idea if they have a reason or not. Perhaps that's their regular spot. Perhaps the wifi or data signal is only good in that area, maybe they are just asshole. But you assume a lot and are just jumping to conclusions. Behaviours that lead to worse results.

    There's always more to the story than you can tell.
