I'm going to slap one of those BOOM BOX car drivers one day!

I'm going to slap one of those BOOM BOX car drivers one day!
What the hell is with that?
They pull up near you at a red light and your car and brain starts shaking!

[Kegler300]

I want something like an electronic impulse gun so I can aim it at their car and shut it down. Or, buy a mini-van with sliding doors on both sides and have mega-speakers pointing outboard, so when one of these idiots pulls up beside you, you slide the door open, and blast them with some real music.

[Andrew_980]

I have heard of a device that causes bass feedback, the more bass the more feedback, and enough bass will shred the speaker.

[WhiteHatBobby]

A "rapmobile" 9 out of 10 times now is usually a Sport Compact, with the New Big Three (Toyota, Honda, Renault*) usually being the brands of choice. I'm sick of rapmobiles and wonder if Rick Stewart presses the button, will they turn on the red light on the Christmas Tree!

* Renault is the main stakeholder of Nissan.

[johnrocks]

I hate em! Especially at 3 AM when my windows in my bedroom start shaking or when a hoodlum pulls up at a store and leaves his piece of **** running while he goes in the store to buy a cigar to roll a blunt or something.:mad:

[blackcatrun]

We have one here several mils before he gets here one can feel and hear the thumping. He has been sighted 5 times already.

We do have one thing to smile about thou: The thumper cars have a habit of falling apart from the vibrations of the speekers. It loosens nuts and bolts and things start falling off and out of the car.

[super cool ski instructor]

I always say they must be overcompensating for something.......

[MrShotShot]

But yet if my muffler fell off, I'd get a ticket.

I feel the same way about motorcycles.

[alexz2317]

Why would you slap them? They are so cool!!!!!!!!!!! The louder the bass, the cooler the person. :rolleyes:

HA! You better not! The cute li'l hoodie will hip-hop out of his car and beat your patootie!

[ressurectedUltraSaiyanUSA]

boom boxes don't bother me that much because they come and go. speeding doesn't even bother me that much if the other driver has good control of his vehicle and is for the most part safe.

but I would like to go jason voorhees or michael myers on morons who don't know the meaning of 'right-of-way' making sudden three lane passes (and yet they have the nerve to get angry when you blow your horn at them like what happened last friday), morons who are completelty inattentive on the road after giving them a 10 second chance when it is obvious the opposite traffic is clear and can make a safe turn (like what happened last sunday), morons who cut you off without a safe clearance (i don't even mind now if these imbeciles cut me off, just as long as they do it with a safe clearance between my car and their crap vehicles so i have time to react if something unexpected comes up ahead), morons who tailgate, morons who don't know how to use their signal lights, morons who don't know how to park even on well-defined parking spaces say in malls, morons who can't parallel park, morons who park without safe clearance from vehicles in front and behind.

these are the morons who should just disappear from the face of the Earth because I swear, if it were only legal to hunt obvious imbeciles like these (like you do rabbit or deer or duck) who are accidents waiting to happen on the road, they should be tortured and taken out saw/halloween/friday the 13th-style...

[ressurectedUltraSaiyanUSA]

I also have an issue with knuckleheads who don't know walking etiquette, which is basically just the same as driving (always walk on the right hand side, make a pass if it's safe). I already confronted some of these knuckleheads walking in the streets of new york city. if someone were walking on my path in the right side, i'd just go ram right through them.

there was one who I told 'moron, meet your right side. right side, meet moron' and then i stormed off.

there was one who after ramming through him got thrown to the side corner (and he was larger than me) and another idiot who also lost balance. it's funny when that happens. and I don't make any distinctions. large or small, if you go through my path and don't follow walking etiquette, I will ram right through you. i am getting tired of being polite on the sidewalks and slinking myself for these morons.

[ressurectedUltraSaiyanUSA]

also, what's up with these morons who block the subway doors when you're about to exit?? don't these morons have any brains to realize they are blocking exit??

well, i ram through them also and it feels good, especially one of the morons say 'ow!' ha ha ha ha.

[JenyEliza]

I feel the same way about motorcycles.

But not whiny ass out of control toddlers at Walmart?

Doh. :doh:

Wonder if there's a correlation between parents who are afraid to discipline their whiny toddlers and kids who grow up to drive these rapmobiles? :think:

I bet there might be......their parents clearly let them know they have the right to disturb others with impunity from an early age. From disturbing the peace in Walmart right on up to driving and disturbing the peace, their idiot parents tell their precious darlings its A-OK.

So....enjoy the fruits of sloppy, lazy parenting folks....this is how it pays off.

Again, how does not supporting some guy who assaulted a 2-year-old equate to supporting bad parenting.

I'm just not seeing the correlation.

Yes! Arrrrggghhhh...My god those things are all noise and no power! I mean get over it already....we don't all need to goo and gah over the fact that you got took in buying one of these pieces of ...urhmmm...machinery. :rolleyes: They're crappy bikes! Period...

Give me a fast crotch rocket any day of the week...at least they blow by fast enough that you don't have to listen to their dam clunking piece of machinery! Louder glub glubbing doesn't mean power or faster! :rolleyes:

Boom cars...or as my daughters call it..Bumping. I want to take a baseball bat to their stereo speakers. My glass kitchen window threatens to break, wobbling horrifically, every time they drive by blaring their crap at the speed of thump. :rolleyes: Makes me wanna just loose it. One can enjoy their music without infringing upon another listening space.

~Mysty

[pattyk]

WOW. you guys in the big city have issues like I never have.

Harleys are ok (used to have one) boom boxes, just go on.

Cities? Heck we live in the BFE with a few people around us (1/4 is the closest) and we have this issue too. :)

The kid behind us cranks that bass up and because it's so quiet you can hear him coming a full 5 minutes before he even gets here. That is no joke. The other neighbors complained and now he turns it down when he gets closer to home. Like 50 feet from home. Like that helps. :)) Sorry dude, we heard ya coming from miles away. Literally! :))

He also plays it while home and our windows literally shake from it. One of these days I'm gonna put my stereo speakers outside in the back yard and crank up some of my CD's. See how he likes a little Twisted Sister and AC/DC at full volume. :))

[JenyEliza]

It's rude is what it is; these kids with booming thumping bass thrashed stereos. When your in a space/area of residences, one would think courtesy would take a front seat to 'me me me' type thinking. But then, that's assuming these people think...lol. I lower my volume on my radio as soon as I am in a residential area..especially if it's in the evening. Nothing wrong with taking someone elses comfort and peace and quiet into mind.

A little Twisted Sister..sure...or...some Scorpions (the Zoo), ACDC (Back in Black) just might take care of your little issue...heheheheehhe Old school...gotta love it. :dance:

When hubby and I are taking a ride on his FJ...he doesn't gun it through our neighborhood...a nice quiet slow ride out of the neighborhood...then we rip it up in the canyons. :)

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. :frown: He might actually like my music choices. Then I will have to provide beer when he comes over. :))

[ressurectedUltraSaiyanUSA]

yes.

lately i have really grown to dislike new york city and actually the greater new york area for that matter... from subways to the streets, lots of morons walking and driving around.

for instance, i was walking through the sidewalk minding my own business and stopped at a corner when the don't walk sign lit. despite the heavy volume of traffic on that corner, the morons continued to walk despite the don't walk light. and i'd already seen a situation where this guy was hit by this taxicab because some of these pedestrians think they're walking on the moon.

and another instance I was waiting at the corner for the walk sign to light up when this stocky, beer-bellied jerk-off walked past in front of me, pushing me aside like no one was even in front of him. the only regret i had was I did not kick his leg or stomp on his shoe. obviously an inconsiderate moron.

I gave this dumbass a dirty look and really wanted to yell at him only to see him ogling at a woman next to me! and not just stolen glances but just blatant ogling as he turned at look at her. i just shook my head. it was probably an opportunity that was lost. I shouldve asked him right then and there 'hey jerk, don't go brushing off my penis like that'...

these are the kinds of people i would like to go jason voorhees or michael myers on.

There's lot's of little boys with big boom boxes where I live. I used to get so peeved by them, but now i just ignore them for the most part. The exception, are the guys who pull into the gas station and have to have their profanity laced crap blasting while they put $5.00 of gas in their car. I have and will say something to those guys, especially if there are children around.

[ressurectedUltraSaiyanUSA]

and in the subway one afternoon on my way to the city to meet a friend about 2 months ago, there were these 2 valley sluts and this emaciated gay guy. they kept on and on and on and on like they were the only people in the car and they kept just couldn't stay in one place.

at one point, the train was speeding up and the ride bumpy and this gay guy stepped on my foot! and I was only wearing flip-flops. if he was just holding on the pole like a man, none of that wouldve even been necessary. it's not so much the pain but their rowdiness that got on my nerves.

the guy said 'i'm sorry', then I said 'you should!' and then moved away. and after that, they were still carrying on like uncaged monkies...

unbelievable.

[Andrew_980]

[gdoane]

Ten things I hate about other people's cars:

1. CD's and bling hanging from the mirror. How brilliant is it to hang a highly reflective object right in the field of vision of a driver? Who came up with this plan and how did he ever convince people it was anything but moronic?

2. Pot signs on windows and bumpers. Another act of brilliance. Why don't the potheads just use a bumper sticker that says "HEY COPS! SEARCH MY DUMB ASS!! JACKPOT HERE!"

3. Ricers with huge loud mufflers trying to make a Honda Civic sound like a badass machine. Usually with racing decals all over the windows which actually serve a good function... hiding the moron driving the noisy rice burning sake sucker from public view.

4. Those stupid fake bull testicles dangling from a trailer hitch. I see those and I know there's an ass nearby.

5. The window stickers of the obnoxious boy peeing on whatever the driver apparently doesn't like. Congratulations, genious. You don't like Fords or Dodges or whatever and you just put their corporate logo on your window! Idiots.

6. The American Flag on the car antenna which is always faded and ripped to shreds. Flags don't last long in a 60+ MPH windstorm every day. It looks like hell in no time and it's DISRESPECTFUL of the flag displaying it in tatters.

7. Those yellow diamond joke stickers that say clever little things like "Ex-wife in trunk". They're never that funny and if you don't like your ex-wife then why would you have a reference to her on the car that you're lucky she didn't take?

8. The "My Kid Is On The Honor Roll At XXX Elementary. That's really good to know but what does that have to do with the car? Put the stupid sticker on the kid instead.

9. People who tie mattresses, lumber, furniture or other stupid stuff to the top of their car. That is not a safe cargo area. U-Haul rents pickups for $20 a day. Use the right tool for the right job and don't go endangering other motorists by losing a load on the road. I passed a mattress on the freeway today. It either dropped off of a car or somebody took falling asleep at the wheel to a whole new level.

10. Of course those irritating Boomer cars. Their music is not so good that it has to be shared with the world. They need to be saving that money they're wasting on speakers to pay for the hearing aids they're going to need before they turn 30.

I could probably find something on any car that irritates me. On my own truck it's that stupid huge "F-150" across the top of the windshield. Apparently that's so that any pedestrian I mow down will think that was the license plate number.

[coyote1880]

It is funny because sonar systems that put out the same frequency as the sub-harmonics of boom-cars have been banned for use by the Navy.

Whales are more important than people.

A little suggestion.

People who sit in these are more suseptable to high freqency sounds.

We have little problem with them around us now.

[mysticbeauty_nbeast]

Kids? Did I mention the guy that does this is old enough and does have kids older than mine? :))

Oooohhhh....a-huh. I see. Well then..maybe some Culture Club? or some Men in Hats (We can Dance song)..same song played over and over? If music like that is bad enough to make embedded crazies come out of their hill side sheds crying for relief..I imagine it will do the same for your neighbor? lol:lol::lol:

Personally, I'd find the most obnoxious song ever...leave the house of course...and put the volume on high while I was gone. Let that play for an hour or so...guaranteed to garner you a mano to mano talk over beers which would include the topic of respect for one another's listening enjoyment/peace and quiet. Or..you could simply start making noise complaints to your local police...I'm thinking solution number one would keep better/open/friendly relations with your neighbors though. ;)

No...I don't find it worth working up spit in my mouth much less getting lathered up over excessive booming/thudding/obnoxious stereo systems.

My girls..who range in age from 19 to almost 25 don't find it attractive either...in fact, they point and laugh at guys who have 'stereo ego issues'.

I don't believe guys (young men) do this to impress the ladies.....I believe guys (young men) do this to impress other guys. I don't mean as in attracting other guys...no no. I mean it as competition with other guys..who has the loudest..who can thump the deepest...who can boom the furthest distance...who can be heard five miles away type of competition. It used to be (back when I was a girl and dinosaurs roamed the earth) building hot rods..you worked on one..made it a sleeper..and raced. Now it's down to stereo's. Sad...really really sad.

[ressurectedUltraSaiyanUSA]

and this thing that happened last friday (or saturday)...

so i was coming from pathmark and going to turn right at the corner to the turnpike. the light was green so i have the right of way.

then there's this moron who was going to turn, but then made a u-turn which was ok. what was not ok was when he made that turn and drove through 3 lanes and got in front of me... and the moron even had the nerve to beep his horn!

i beeped back longer and the moron just stayed there. so i drove to his right, and flipped him a finger. then the imbecile jerk just flipped and just went ballistic acting up in his seat like a monkey. at that point, i just felt my pupils constrict as I always do when I get extremely angry and I just saw red.

after that show, he drove off... where did he drive off to? to pathmark, to a direction that had he just made a left turn and went straight down (instead of making a u-turn and violating the right-of-way rule), he couldve already been there in 5 minutes and he couldve saved himself and me all that trouble.

but I was not about to let this moron off and get away with his behavior so I followed him and, if he parked and got out of the car, was just going to confront him and tell him how much of a dumbass he was.

but the cowardly moron noticed me following him. I went around and followed where he was. the dumb and cowardly piece of **** couldn't even park and just kept on driving!

I've just had enough. I was ready to confront him but he was just a dumb coward. so I just drove off and i already made my point.

I still say the best way to get young men to stop acting stupid is to convince girls to avoid them. Date the good ones, not the trash, and things will get better. As long as the "cool" POS gets the girl it will look like a good idea to act retarded.

[merickson]

Its not the loud music that bothers me so much, its that what I get ISNT the music.

A convertable with an excessive sound system (and the top down) blares its music all over the place, but at least it's music. Intrusive, excessive, exhibitionst music. I may disagree with the drivers taste in music, but at least I get to hear all the music.

A sedan with an excessive sound system has most of the frequencys blocked by the body. No one but the occupants get music, the rest of us get sonic "smog."

The cars I really laugh at are the junkers where the sound system is so overbuit that it rattles the panels of the car. If you're going to put that many dollars in a sound system, drop a few buck on the auto.

3. Ricers with huge loud mufflers trying to make a Honda Civic sound like a badass machine. Usually with racing decals all over the windows which actually serve a good function... hiding the moron driving the noisy rice burning sake sucker from public view.

A few things. That huge logo on top of the windshield is what you see in racing. V8 Supercars (Australia) have "HOLDEN" and "FORD" written across that sun tint. NASCAR Nationwide cars and Camping World trucks have the respective sponsor's logo on the windshield.

The obnoxious boy urinating is a technical illegal sticker. They are unlicenced material. Recently, Fox Sports' Darrell Waltrip sued a Canadian store for violating his trademarks. I shall not put an unlicenced sticker on my truck for that specific reason.

The mufflers in question are probably glass packs.

And as for people who tie things on the car? Just remember, Obama seized GM and Chrysler because guess which types of vehicles they sold most, and decided they wanted to make because they make money? Pickup trucks.

Ford agreed with Obama to cut production of those vehicles, converting a plant to make what Obama demands they make.

The large decals aren't even racing decals. They wouldn't even pass any FIA member's standards.

Or..you could simply start making noise complaints to your local police...I'm thinking solution number one would keep better/open/friendly relations with your neighbors though. ;)

Here's the song to use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjDL3wGNvm0

I want something like an electronic impulse gun so I can aim it at their car and shut it down. Or, buy a mini-van with sliding doors on both sides and have mega-speakers pointing outboard, so when one of these idiots pulls up beside you, you slide the door open, and blast them with some real music.

Yes! I want 2 of them! :))

[toeknee]

I have heard of a device that causes bass feedback, the more bass the more feedback, and enough bass will shred the speaker.

what is it called? a basball bat?

Remember when CB's were so popular and everyone was wanting more power out of them. There was a device that would burn the finals out of the CB if it was running more than legal power. And it was effective for about 500 feet. I think one of those devices could be modified to do the same to those "boom box cars". :shhh:

[toeknee]

HA! You better not! The cute li'l hoodie will hip-hop out of his car and beat your patootie!

I have not encountered a female dumb enough to do this yet,
its been all guys with that look how stoopd I an look on their face! :))

dont hold back on on us I bet you can make one that makes the whole car combust if you want! :))

[toeknee]

But yet if my muffler fell off, I'd get a ticket.

I feel the same way about motorcycles.

motorcycles dont shake you and your car like the boom box cars do!:hand:

I'll bet that Gene could make one that provides the necessary feed back to completely destroy those speaker. If he wanted to. :think:

Oooohhhh....a-huh. I see. Well then..maybe some Culture Club? or some Men in Hats (We can Dance song)..same song played over and over? If music like that is bad enough to make embedded crazies come out of their hill side sheds crying for relief..I imagine it will do the same for your neighbor? lol:lol::lol:

I love a great Loud system and thats why I had many. I did always turn it down when I was sitting still unless I was cruising the spot or I was going through my neighborhood or other neighborhoods. 1500 watts of fun with all MTX and Alpine. If a kid buys and builds it themselves, it's teaching them.

[spinach]

right now, on the next street over from mine, about 6 houses down..

the neighborhood jackass has his stereo at full volume.

I sometimes have to put on earphones in my own house, and listen to CDs on the laptop, just to drown it out.

the guy is a jackass.
I really wish the folks living around him would say something to him
and preferably do it with a few choice words.

Unfortunately....I am in a rural area, so the usual "disturbance" noise level laws don't apply.
I don't think....

I wish I had a couple of marshall stacks.
I'd take the guitar way out of tune, plug my ears, and point both toward his house.
and then play garbage, not even any songs.
and do it at 3am every night for a week.

I think he would figure it out

[coyote1880]

Gene,

16,000 Hz

A recording of a child crying reversed.

They actually called the police on us.

But after looking through all the calls that had been against them, the police congratulated us.

What you need my friend is a good "BROKEN" security system that "accidentally" sets off at 2-3 in the morning until the loud music stops! :))
Or you can get really loud truck horns that you can play when the neighbor gets too loud, you stop when he stops, and you start when he does

WOW I just gave myself that great idea, NAPA here I come!

we have a lot of snakes around here.
I could find a dead one, and throw it over the power lines.

instant blackout.
and it would look like an accident

muhahahaaaha
nah....that's sabotage.
:))

this actually happened once on the other street. A large rat snake tried going from one line to the next. And he made contact. And he stayed in contact as he crystallized into carbon, and caught fire. dumped the power on the next street over.

I wish there were another snake over on that street.
:pray:

[sisyphus]

Drylok is right, but it is fun to think up revenge methods. Like when I ran wires to the speakers of the auditory offenders apartment, and ran 2000 watts of 2112 (track 1) when he was sleeping....Fun stuff for an eighteen year old.

P.S. great sig. Drylok

[jungulator]

Yes! Arrrrggghhhh...My god those things are all noise and no power! I mean get over it already....we don't all need to goo and gah over the fact that you got took in buying one of these pieces of ...urhmmm...machinery. :rolleyes: They're crappy bikes! Period...

Give me a fast crotch rocket any day of the week...at least they blow by fast enough that you don't have to listen to their dam clunking piece of machinery! Louder glub glubbing doesn't mean power or faster! :rolleyes:

Funny, 2 crotch rocket *******s recently died while doing stupid **** on the highways around here. With the wheelies and crap they pull, who's putting the public at a greater risk. The rockets or the Harleys?

I'm thankful everyday that you ride a Harley with loud pipes. You're not on some crotch rocket with a wee wee little motor next to some ******* with his boom-dati-boom cranked in his car unable to hear you because of your wee wee engine. You're heard a mile away and that's why you come home to us alive every night. Love the Harley!

:hug:

[blackcatrun]

Cities? Heck we live in the BFE with a few people around us (1/4 is the closest) and we have this issue too. :)

The kid behind us cranks that bass up and because it's so quiet you can hear him coming a full 5 minutes before he even gets here. That is no joke. The other neighbors complained and now he turns it down when he gets closer to home. Like 50 feet from home. Like that helps. :)) Sorry dude, we heard ya coming from miles away. Literally! :))

He also plays it while home and our windows literally shake from it. One of these days I'm gonna put my stereo speakers outside in the back yard and crank up some of my CD's. See how he likes a little Twisted Sister and AC/DC at full volume. :))

Ive got two five foot concert speekers sitting right beside me. Huge things that would without doubt blow the windows out of a house. I can drown out the best car stereo system without carrying them outside...althou that has a habit of shaking things off the walls and such.

Darwinism at it's best! lol

We were talking about the bikes...not the people who ride them. lol. There's some real winners out there on all types of bike Jung...:lol:

100 mile man can be sited on all types of bikes...but that's the idiot riding said bike...not the bike itself...right?

As to noise...which is what my post was in reference too...Crotch Rocket bikes may be quieter...but aren't the tiny buzzing things you think they are. Hubby rides a FJ 1200...things massive. (Hubby's big guy...6'4, 275) His mistress (read FJ) has enough power, runs smooth..and without the glub gllubbing that many Harley's make..nothing more then false power in some poorly built Harley. That sound doesn't mean more power...it merely means the guys ignition timing and crank shaft rotation isn't firing properly. As hubby says...I'd rather ride my bike then work on it all the time. Hmmm...:think:

btw...Calling hubby's FJ a crotch rocket is like calling a 747 a paper airplane. :lol:

Just saying....

Now any idiot who rides in half helmet, t-shirt, flip flop's, shorts, screaming down the road on any bike is going to be in for one hell of a hurting. Pulling wheelies if for dumb ass kids who don't know any better imo. There's nothing like nasty healed up old road rash to make ya think twice. Bike safety isn't something to be taken lightly...no matter the bike..no matter the ride...no matter how far your traveling. And that's just facts. ;)

Noise?.....I'll take those rockets any day of the week over those damn noisy Harleys. :shhh:

You guys talking mini's? or little off road to road bikes? Most of the guys my hubby rides with don't have engines that you can't hear...so wondering what bikes you all are speaking too? The mistress has a deep purr that can be heard over even boom boom cars...;)

Harley's...oh yeah..can hear them a mile away. In traffic..kinda hard not to hear any bike on the road today worth riding. So which one's are you thinking of?

The VAST majority of crotch rockets on the road are extremely quiet that even without a radio playing in the car, it's sometimes hard to hear them coming up next to you. All I am saying is I like knowing my husband is on a very loud bike and there is no way anyone can miss him. I like him home alive and this is just something that makes me feel better.

Glad you and your husband are enjoying your bikes. I don't have the guts to ride one myself. :)

Funny, in 3 years I've owned my Harley, I've never had to repair anything. As to the noise. While it is louder than all hell, it's still within legal range, so there isn't really a damn thing you can do about it except go cry to your mommy.

No...lol..no bike battle here. Harley's in my area are just...well...owned by people who don't really ride as much as they like spending a crap load of money to say they are riding an American machine...know what I mean? Can't work on them either...more money out to pay to fix small issues. That..and my poor windows! Dear lord..kitchen window vibrates like it's gonna break every time one of these machines is improperly running and outside my immediate area. :rolleyes: Makes me a bit nuts.

I used to ride. Rode cruisers..not a sport bike kinda gal. Can't ride anymore. Miss it something fierce. Nothing like riding..nothing! But, small price and hardship so that I can walk, drive and do most everything I once did.

Maybe those of us who have riders in the family are more aware while driving on the road with those two wheeled riders? I know I watch for them constantly. Keeping them in view keeps safety for everyone at top priority.

Taking a ride with hubby tomorrow up in the hills thru hwy 49. Beautiful ride...I can't wait! :dance:

Sounds to me like your not in the group I'm referring too then are you? Legal range..if they were in legal range of noise then there would be nothing to complain about then would there? No. So obviously I'm not speaking to bikes and the noise they make in general. I'm speaking to those idiots who run bikes that don't meet the legal definition.

Glad you keep your machine clean and running well. We all thank you for that. You know the bikes I'm speaking too though right? You've heard these idiots I'm sure. Hard to miss um. :rolleyes:

You are your own mommy? How the hell did you manage that? Anyway, legal is a broad range. Less than 90 decibels at not less than 50 feet. At point blank it's louder than a jackhammer.

You are your own mommy? How the hell did you manage that? Anyway, legal is a broad range. Less than 90 decibels at not less than 50 feet. At point blank it's louder than a jackhammer.

Since I'm enough of a nerd to actually own a sound level meter, which I bought to calibrate the speakers of the three Dolby Surround Systems in my house in various rooms to within 1 dB of each other, I happen to have a chart in the manual for the device which describes which levels are what.

It's important to know that Decibels are a LOGARITHMIC SCALE, they are not linear. In measuring power it's a 10Log Scale. 10 db is NOT 10 times as much as 1 dBm, but rather a HUNDRED times 1 Db.

Hears (pun intended) the scale as put forth in my sound level meter manual:

0 dB = Hearing threshold
10dB = Anechoic Room (no, I don't know what the Heck one is)
20dB = Quiet whisper.
30 dB = Soft Musi
45 dB = Average residence
60 dB = Background music
65 dB = Conversation
75 dB = Average factory
80 dB = Loud orchestra
90 dB = Threshold of unsafe levels
100 dB = Riveter
105 dB = Thunder
110 dB = Amplified Rock Music
120 dB = Airplane
130 dB = Threshold of pain
140 dB = 50 HP Siren

(all measurements taken at A Weighting and Slow response.)

I think it's interesting that the law puts the limit at 90 dB when that's the beginning of unsafe levels. I just cranked my stereo to 90 dB as measured on that meter and HOLLLEEE CRRRRAAAAAPPPP!!! That is LOUD! If my neighbors didn't like Brooks and Dunn before, they sure don't now! Thank God for the remote control, I couldn't have gotten close enough to that thing to shut it down. I'd have had to go for the breaker box on the back of the house! I was ready to Boot Scoot Boogie the heck out of that room.

I've NEVER had my stereo at 90 dB before, and the scary thing is it'll do it and not even be cranked. That was barely over half the volume control to hit that grating level. The burglar alarm to my house isn't even that loud and it's meant to drive people outta here.

I remember a story about iPods a while back getting Apple sued because of being too loud and causing hearing damage. They wound up making a software update or something to limit the volume out.

http://www.livescience.com/health/090218-teens-ipod-volume.html

I love my iPod to pieces, although I almost NEVER plug headphones into it. I'll run it through my truck stereo, through my home stereo, through computer speakers, but rarely through headphones and not because I'm afraid of hearing loss per se, but because my ears are my eyes in the back of my head. If something is going wrong outside of my field of view, my hearing is my first alert. I need to keep it clear to feel safe.

[DLaw911]

Could you repeat that please ... I can't hear you.

[DRS]

I'm going to slap one of those BOOM BOX car drivers one day!
What the hell is with that?
They pull up near you at a red light and your car and brain starts shaking!

I love the guys who think they are tough and say stupid things or start honking their horns at lights. As soon as you put the car in park and get out they reconsider their whole approach.

[sircharliebrown]

He was being tongue and cheek too. :)

I think my issue (and Jung's too) are the little Yamaha type, sport, crotch rockets. It seems like everytime you see someone on a bike weaving dangerously in and out of traffic, going high rates of speeds, popping wheelies and basically putting everyone around them, including themselves, in danger.....it's one of those little rice burner Yamaha race bikes. I don't have much respect for those kind of people. I'm sure there are a lot of people with those kinds of bikes who are responsible, but too often I see otherwise.

I rarely see someone on a Harley acting like that. Actually, I never have. Maybe because the bike is worth something and Harley owner's have a bit more respect for their bike? I don't know. My brother just bought a Yamaha V-Star. Beautiful looking machine and NOT a little wee wee race bike.

[The Girl from Ipanema]

Noisy pipes save lives. yup yup

Now we did get my husband a tank bag with speakers and an mp3 player connection so that he could listen to music while he rides (I use ear buds, but they don't seem to stay in for him). It annoys me when we pull up to a stop light or into a parking spot and he doesn't turn it down, because I think that's just rude.

[gdoane]

I love the guys who think they are tough and say stupid things or start honking their horns at lights. As soon as you put the car in park and get out they reconsider their whole approach.

I did that at a no right on red sign in Mesa, AZ. THREE signs said no right turn on red (right on red is usually allowed except for blind intersections) and I wasn't making a right even though the traffic level was about zero. I hopped out and pointed and said THERE'S YOUR SIGN!!

I went Bill Engvall on the guy. HERE'S YOUR SIGN. Law is right in front of you, and you wonder why the guy in front of you is obeying the law?

[The Girl from Ipanema]

Ten things I hate about other people's cars:

1. CD's and bling hanging from the mirror. How brilliant is it to hang a highly reflective object right in the field of vision of a driver? Who came up with this plan and how did he ever convince people it was anything but moronic?

2. Pot signs on windows and bumpers. Another act of brilliance. Why don't the potheads just use a bumper sticker that says "HEY COPS! SEARCH MY DUMB ASS!! JACKPOT HERE!"

3. Ricers with huge loud mufflers trying to make a Honda Civic sound like a badass machine. Usually with racing decals all over the windows which actually serve a good function... hiding the moron driving the noisy rice burning sake sucker from public view.

4. Those stupid fake bull testicles dangling from a trailer hitch. I see those and I know there's an ass nearby.

5. The window stickers of the obnoxious boy peeing on whatever the driver apparently doesn't like. Congratulations, genious. You don't like Fords or Dodges or whatever and you just put their corporate logo on your window! Idiots.

6. The American Flag on the car antenna which is always faded and ripped to shreds. Flags don't last long in a 60+ MPH windstorm every day. It looks like hell in no time and it's DISRESPECTFUL of the flag displaying it in tatters.

7. Those yellow diamond joke stickers that say clever little things like "Ex-wife in trunk". They're never that funny and if you don't like your ex-wife then why would you have a reference to her on the car that you're lucky she didn't take?

8. The "My Kid Is On The Honor Roll At XXX Elementary. That's really good to know but what does that have to do with the car? Put the stupid sticker on the kid instead.

9. People who tie mattresses, lumber, furniture or other stupid stuff to the top of their car. That is not a safe cargo area. U-Haul rents pickups for $20 a day. Use the right tool for the right job and don't go endangering other motorists by losing a load on the road. I passed a mattress on the freeway today. It either dropped off of a car or somebody took falling asleep at the wheel to a whole new level.

10. Of course those irritating Boomer cars. Their music is not so good that it has to be shared with the world. They need to be saving that money they're wasting on speakers to pay for the hearing aids they're going to need before they turn 30.

I could probably find something on any car that irritates me. On my own truck it's that stupid huge "F-150" across the top of the windshield. Apparently that's so that any pedestrian I mow down will think that was the license plate number.

:))

My kids want me to make a bumper sticker that says "My kids have sufficient self esteem, such that I don't need to proclaim their every minor achievement on a bumper sticker."

Maybe I should. :think:
