Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : It is douchey to wear earbuds in public.  When you are out an about, people need to talk to you.  They need to tell you things like “excuse me, you are in the way,”  and “Can I work in?”  I really do not want to tap you on the shoulder.

In some situations, public ear buds are not a problem like sitting on a park bench or using a cardio machine at the gym.  However, when you are on the move or are surrounded by people who are on the move, take your fucking earbuds out!
