    The jerk down the street has a "souped up" car (which it isn't really), and he has the annoying tendency to rev it over and over. Gah!

    Yeah, that is another annoying thing. When someone can't afford a nice car witha good stereo so they buy a piece of crap so that they can put a stereo in it that is worth more than their car. If only those people new how stupid they look.

    I wish more people in my neighbourhood played their music really loud. My neighbours are mainly old people and familys so the one time in the around 16 years we've lived there that we've played really loud music (for my 18th birthday party) someone down the road calls the cops and spoils the fun. I can understand if music is constantly being played loudly but if it's a one off thing people should be more tolerent. Our new neighbours next door had a fairly loud new year's karaoke party so things might be looking up for my 21st.

    It's just to show off. But if you put your back on the speaker it gives you a nice massage.

    Or if you watched Howard Stearn's <i>Private Parts</i> you know it does more than that.

    I kind of do that myself, though it is not as ridiculous as being able to hear me down the block. You still have to be by my car with the windows open to hear my music when I have it loud(at least for me).

    People do that sort of thing because
    (1) They are BAD ASS DUDES WHO JUS DUN CARE and they are FIGHTIN DA SYSTEM,

    and

    (2) People will notice them as a result. Everyone who notices will hate their pathetic, selfish, masochistic, childish little guts for it, but there'll always be a few BAD ASS DUDES WHO JUS DUN CARE who'll praise them for FIGHTIN DA SYSTEM in such an effective manner.

    It's attention-seeking, really. They make excuses like, "I enjoy the music!" but that's nonsense since the music isn't audible at such volumes - all you're aware of is a ridulous amount of bass, so much that you can feel it as much as hear it. 'The music' is so far gone as to be unrecognisable.

    I mean, a little bit of loudness - so that you can hear and enjoy the music - is understandable; but distorting it beyong human tolerance and hearing is just absurd.

    I live in the middle of nowhere so turning my music up real loud, no one else can hear it hahaha. Not to show off, either. Just so that I can't hear myself think thus forgetting all my worries and loving the music.
    Hate car though.

    It's a kind of Zen thing - "if a stereo is really loud, but no-one's around to hear it, is it noise pollution?" and the answer is, "no, it's an example of a stereo owner being considerate and having a good time without troubling other people".

    Well I turn it up VERY loud, but not to the point that its making the vibration drown out the music. But at the level of volume I keep it at I'm sure plenty of other people hear it. I don't do it for 'attention' either...I just like my music loud...is that a crime?

    Oh wait...here it is.

    I actually enjoy really loud bass. It's made me half deaf, but i never do it to show off.. If someone asks me to crank it I will, but most of the time it's just me sitting in my driveway, with a pair of 12's shaking my car so bad it massages me.

    It's not annoying as much as it's pathetic.
