This only works if the other person has situational awareness.

Do people even walk around alone without something in ears nowadays?

Another, "listen to the world" person. Nice

Kind of. I do wear earplugs every now and then when I'm on bicycle because I don't like how loud the cars passing me can get. But otherwise I'm "rawdogging" moving around in the world.

I'm not gonna gatekeep! And I do have the same problems. Small monologue here: My grandmother who survived the 2nd world war, she always said I needed to wash my face and behind my ears. And I never took her seriously. Now that I'm a lot closer her her age when she said that I finally get it!

Yeah... Situational awareness kind of a requirement for short people.
