Talking faster and more nonsensically would actually be worse than louder. Sure, it may not hurt the ear as much, but it's still insulting and it doesn't signify the information, unlike shouting or saying something louder. That may hurt the ears and be a bit offensive, but it'll get the point across and give the speaker attention, unless the one listening just doesn't want to listen to anything at all.
