Mine is the volume of their voice. If all that they can do is just talk too loudly with no reason for it and don't control the volume of their voice. That to me is a sign that you're a stupid fuck. Because people think the louder they are, the more righteous and attention seeking they are. Than it is to just listen, digest and respond accordingly to anyone talking around you.

I've always valued privacy when having a conversation in public. I speak loudly enough for the person I'm with to hear me. I've never understood people just yacking loudly so the whole world knows their business.

Loud college students were having a conversation behind us yesterday (the museum is near the university). I stopped and my partner was stopped by us holding hands. Waited till they got about fifteen feet in front of us and resumed walking.

Don't ever go to Spain. They are loud as hell. They all yell at each other at full volume while having multiple TVs and phones blaring on speaker.

And NOW on the mobile phone on speaker.... it's a concept I don't get, nor want to.

It also makes me feel like an old grumpy man because I dislike it so...
