It helps with the dialogue, but I also like it because I feel like it keeps my mind more active and involved in the story. It’s more like reading a book and watching a movie.

I mean, she does suck but isn't that the norm?

I can't eat popcorn anywhere without needing to hoover up around me afterwards, and I ain't untidy by any means!

I enjoy reading. I also prefer text to phone call. I enjoy subtitles.

that is also the dryest popcorn I have ever seen, where is the butter?

Elder millennial here, my T.V. often has subtitles on, but that's because I only speak English but frequently watch content in other languages, namely Hindi, Spanish, Tamil & Telegu, and it's still on when I do watch something in English.

That being said I turn the English off as soon as I find the remote, and one of the things I least like about visiting my brother is his wife insists on having English subtitles in large font all the time. Particularly annoying when watching something live like hockey.

*Laughs in Dolby 5.1 with high quality Remuxes that have a center channel.

Seriously though, you can't blame them. Audio production these days is engineered for theaters and surround sound. Most of Gen z is watching this content in stereo - either through phone speakers or shitty TV speakers.
