I was surprised to notice how annoyed I was by the group of young American women who were chatting loudly in the crowded train.
I looked at them and one of them looked back so I made it clear that their behavior was totally inappropriate.
I knew that they were talking loudly on purpose just to get attention from the rest.
Then one young foreign businessman entered the train and he was obviously embarrassed to see this group.
Before reaching one of the main train station, the girls started to talk and laugh louder that the boys hushed them feeling also embarrassed.
Not that Japanese people never have conversations in the train, but we do not talk like deaf or half deaf people.
It was a clear invasion of privacy in a public place (if you know what I mean) and foremost it was extremely embarrassing behavior.
I think that what annoyed me the most is that they had done it purposefully just to annoy the rest of the people in the train.
I wish these type of tourists never came to visit Japan or any other country.
However, speaking to a deaf person is meaningless which is the reason why nobody said a word but just endured their brutal behavior.
