This should be everywhere, too many people these days are refusing to use headphones, JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!! i don't want to hear your music, your videos or your goddamn conversations, headphones are available everywhere and you can find a suitable pair for your needs.

    You can just tell them to shut the fuck up. It’s free.

    You'll be surprised how many people will take offence or retort with 'not illegal what'. Singaporeans are used to being babied by the nanny state so they'd only take action if they have 'official' reason to back it up; we frown upon vigilantism/lack backbone. That's just our style of societal engineering - disbursements for desirable behaviour like recycling bottles and cans (even for reading books!) and fines for vices like smoking
