It drives me absolutely bonkers when people play music over their handphone speakers or over external speakers! Curses! Actually according to SMRT rules it is ILLEGAL to do so. Why is there no enforcement?! If a person’s music is audible through earphones, I’m much more likely to be forgiving, because at least that first step has been taken.

And believe me, that glare works. wonderfully. :D matt: it is. and they’re pretty dogmatic about it - everytime someone’s phone ring they get a horde of glaring folks at them; the “you’re an inconsiderate gnome that i should beat the crap out of” glare.

I so wish to visit Japan. I heard it is customary to turn off or silent your hand phones in trains. i walked into the train one day and i could hear music from three different earphones. and i was barely close to any of them -_-”

I think Singaporeans need to learn one more additional thing, along with queueing up to enter MRTs and buses, not charging when the doors open, standing in line when purchasing items or at sales especially when it's Hello Kitty, etc, etc. And if we're Singaporean and we can be considerate i don't see why they can't. Bleh to you people who give Singaporeans a bad name and ^^ to jadeite! i second that!
