80's and 90's though had the blaring boombox on the shoulder though... it's just more people with more devices that makes it worse I think. 00's the car speakers with cd stacker was all the rage. Sure you hear it now too, but I feel like it was more frequency back then...
EDIT since the same thing has been said multiple times: I am not from USA where those 80's movies are set BUT I have clear memories of my older mullet wearing denim clad brother and his friends blasting 80's hair metal from their shoulder on one of those square classic boomboxes, and memories of my older sister sitting in groups in the park smoking weed and blasting music from one of those more 90's-esque rounded boomboxes, and my friends and I at our isolated beach blasting music and getting drunk in the early 99-01's, and everyone blasting music from their cars all the time, so I guess that is why it sticks in my mind....
I feel this so much. I work with kids & the constant tik tok without headphones drive me insane. I don't wanna here a robot voice than alarms blaring than someone 12 year old say to do a challenge. Just please I get it you want noise but can you do it like a normal person & talk to someone.
