    Default All Your Base Are SHUT UP

    All day long one of BJ's neighbors has been "bumping his system." This means he's playing music loudly with the base turned way up so that, while he lives across the street, I can feel the base in this upstairs bedroom.

    Its starting to drive me nuts. Why do people feel the need to make you feel their music? Its like this a lot of places around here. Often when I'm at school a car drives by my class and the whole classroom vibrates. I think its pretty rude.

    I also notice that they often have someone in the car with them when they have the music up. That bugs me too. I hate not being able to talk to the person I'm near, and when the music's that loud you can't talk to or hear anyone. I don't know how they can stand to sit in a car with someone and not be able to talk to them.

    Because people want to feel "cool." As corny as that sounds, it's true. They want the "respect", even though seldom do anyone get respect by banging their head to music.

    It's funny though. One time in my car the car next to me had these huge subwoofers. SHE, not he, played her music so loud my car was literally rocking. I tried to drink some hot chocolate, but it fell on my lap.

    People do this in my town all the time. all the drug dealers drive around with the bass way up. Since my town pretty much is all around a 1 mile square they just drive around it all day long. We call it the Windsor 500It makes my house shake really bad. My house is old I think built in the 1830s so it doesn't take much to shake it.

    They'll be deaf when they're 30. There are laws here against playing music in your car too loud anyways.

    It seems that there are no laws in VT that are liek that. I mean we can carry guns whereever we can play music as loud as we want gays can get married. Seems the only thing we can't do here is kill people. Of course 75% of the towns have no cops so you could prolly get away with that too.

    If someone's playing music too loud call the cops. Most town have noise ordinace laws and a lot of kids get scared if a cop visits them in person.

    I oftentimes turn on some Spanish station, turn up the bass real loud, sit my chair way back, and roll down the windows and feel the beat. It makes so many people laugh.

    I turn the music way up to make fun of the people who do it.

    My neighborhood is like that constantly. I've literally cried before because it's so so painful and impossible to shut out. Often times it's my duplex neighbor, we share the wall my bed is against and he likes to watch movies so loud I can hear the dialogue better than on my own tv.

    I hate the ghetto. ;_;

    Yeah, I do that sometimes. When BJ and I take his mom's car I like to bump her Disney CDs.
