What's up with "BOOM-BOOM" cars?
Is it, "HEY EVERYBODY!!!PLEASE LOOK AT ME AND NOTICE ME!!!PLEASE!!!"?
I noticed it's only guys that do it and they never have a woman with them. :rofl:

1. No room for passengers since the back seats have been replaced
by enormous stereo speakers. :)

2. St Louis just passed a very strict law on this
they can actually impound your car and fine you $250 for making "excessive noise", or for having speakers that are too large or amps that are too powerful.

3. I'm no namby-pamby, sissy boy, wilting flower, BUT...
last summer at a stoplight the car behind me was putting out such maddening vibes, or whatever, that my stomach actually started to churn and I thought I was going to barf. I could feel the vibrations from head to toe.
I pulled off into a parking lot to put some distance between me and the two young lady occupants who were apparently oblivious.
There oughta be a law.

5. Because bass is s'posed to sound like an amplified, metallic fart?
"Splatter bass" is what I call it -- all bottom end with no definition, just mush.

As a bassist, I resent this sad, flabby bass!

you can hear is THOOM, THOOM, THOOM until the light changes.

I console myself with thinking about how miserable those punk bastards will be when they're deaf at 30 years old.

17. I've never been to a car wash without somebody parked......
....and the BOOM-BOOM-BOOM going. That and at gas stations they leave it on even when they go in to pay the $2 that they just put in.

13. Just ignorant self-centered little-boy filth
pay them no mind, their penises and their sense of self-worth are very, very small, and soon the will be in prison as is their destiny.

15. Yes, girls do it, too.
Sure doesn't seem anywhere near as popular with the girls as with the micropenised boys, though.

But then, there are a lot of girls who aren't worth even the raw street value of the cellulite God gave them.

16. Back in my car days, the radio went "tweet-tweet-tweet" and the car went
BVOOM BVOOM BVOOM. Now the car goes "tweet tweet" and the radio . . . well, you get the idea.

You reminded me of my '68 Dodge Coronet with an 8-track player.
