They annoy me.

In a public washroom or changeroom, people are doing a private activity in a semi-public space. It makes it feel even more public when there's lots of loud conversion going on. This makes me uncomfortable.

I'd prefer it if people were quite in public washrooms and changerooms, did what they did came there to do as quickly as reasonable (don't hurry, but also don't doddle), and then left.

How do other people feel? Does it bother you too, or you don't care?

No, such does not bother me. We live in a varied and diverse world. That is just how it is. We do not need to be giving people disability or disorder labels either.

Autism-Aspergers is just a concept invented to legitimate the abuse of children and adults. Neuro-Diversity is just a way of pleading for pity. Everytime we endorse these concepts, we are further maginalizing ourselves, and encouraging child abuse. Autism-Asperger's could never even exist without Nazi Social Darwinism and Eugenics. So I no longer talk about these, I talk about lived experience, often the experience of being othered and then persecuted. I call this experience of having intelligence, insight, intuition, and mystical abilities, the Shamanic Experience. And those of us who live it need to start banding together and protecting ourselves, each other, and the children of today. Beautiful Planet, just a rotten economic and political system.

My opinion is that there's a time and a place for people to have lengthy conversations and the change room or the washroom isn't one of those places.

I hate when people go on and on about nothing, or bring their home drama into public places. I was at a concert and some people where chattering noisily about private matters or about nothing. I was tempted to tell them to "just be quiet already" in the same tone Roger Federer used to talk to Djokovic's annoying parents when they were being a genuine pain in the butt. His words were "be quiet," but his tone was emphatically, "Shut up!"

Sometimes, it can be a pain in the butt----other times, though, people say funny things.
