I'm finding an increasing number of old people blaring videos outloud during Carnatic concerts and programs, with no regard for the other people in the audience or the artistes on stage. I don't mean technologically-challenged old people who don't know how to silence their phone if it suddenly rings. I mean willfully opening videos and WhatsApp fwds and what not and letting it play out loud, and watching it, while a performance is going on on stage. At a concert I was at Bharati Vidya Bhavan, there were at least 3 separate instances of this: some 2 people playing some song / video outloud, and one playing some video/joke , none of them scrambling to switch it off or silence it. None of this is accidental or unavoidable like a ringtone. Why even come to an event if you're not going to watch it, and also ruin the experience for others. I wish it was mandatory to leave phones outside the venue, like footwear outside a temple. I mean, sure, the younger generation doomscrolls constantly too but at least we're self aware and also don't cause disturbance to anyone else.

In HSM1 why do they keep saying it's winter musical? In fact during the audition Ms Darbus even suggests to one of the students to try later for the spring musicale indicating that this is not the spring musical. But Gabriella only joined the school after NY, in Jan, and the callbacks (as well as the game and the decathlon) happen in March (the pi day cake), so how is the winter musical supposed to happen after that?! (In the start of HSM2 Gabriella even thanks sharpay for her help on the winter musical?!

Also, in HSM3 Gabriella initially says she'd miss the show but be back in time for prom and graduation, suggesting prom is after the show. But Troy actually shows up at her campus on Prom, and then they drive back in time for the show which is conveniently happening after prom somehow?!

Is anyone else bothered by these
