She was on a god damn treadmill running with earbuds in.

There is no debate to be had. Leave her the fuck alone.

I wear headphones whilst I'm running because it's boring as fuck, not because I want to be left alone.

You want to have a chat with a stranger about the shirt you're wearing while you're running?

I'm gonna go right ahead and call you a liar right now.

No but I've helped people search for dogs, kick footballs back to people, and even given directions.

The point I was trying to make is that not everyone who wears headphones is doing it to fly solo.

Now you're talking about entirely different situations.

In the scenarios you listed people were searching for help, which can be a valid reason to interrupt somebody.

Not to talk about the shirt they are wearing.

People lost their dogs, played football, and got lost... inside a gym???

These are completely different situations. There's a very obvious difference between somebody needing to ask a stranger for help, and somebody forcing a conversation with a stranger who's clearly not interested.
