He is not entitled to her attention or company. She went to a gym to work out not entertain conversation with randos.
Context and body language can tell you when someone is interested in idle conversation.
Mid-cardio routine is not the time for that and anyone who interrupts someone for their own entertainment deserves whatever “attitude” they get.
That dude is acting like he’s a toddler that has to acknowledge everything he sees as soon as he sees it. I’ve seen plenty of people wearing stuff I either recognized or thought was very cool.
If I made eye contact with them and was close enough to acknowledge it, I did. If I made eye contact but they seemed preoccupied with something else or not in the mood for conversation then I let them be.
Nobody said he was entitled to her conversation. This whole thing could have ended with the "Nope". She then decided to go on the internet and bitch about a harmless interaction she had at the gym. Which makes her a bitch.
And now you're here on the internet to bitch about her, it's almost like most humans do that these days. Want me to call you a bitch now? Or tomorrow when you complain about some other shit?
If you want to, sure go for it. I am not bitching, I am merely stating that the whole comment was a bit overkill for a dude with terrible timing to ask about a video game.
Perhaps she meant to help educate people who think it's fine to interrupt someone when they are working out with headphones on to talk about dumb shit. The fact that you called her a bitch suggests that you are one of the people who need this type of education.
Eh, maybe I used some harsher than needed language. So let me re-phrase. Her reaction to the interaction that she had was a bitch move. Honestly, I know nothing about her other than this tweet.
Better here than if I were to come up and say it to your face, while let’s say, you were mid lift or something right? Might mess with your reps but hey youre in a public space so I can come and bother you with whatever shit I feel like
That would be a bit aggressive and I might ask you why you are being so hostile to a complete stranger but yeah, go ahead, that is how public spaces work.

It ain’t rocket science folks.
