Ok, I hate car stereos!
There are about 5 people sitting outside of my apartment right now. And they parked their car and are just milling around outside on my neighbors lawn and their rap music is playing at about a google decibles and its rattling my whole building. Not only that, but they've been here for about 15 minutes now! WILL SOMEONE PLEASE DRIVE HERE AND BEAT THEM UP OR SMASH THEIR CAR PLEASE?! JESUS!

1. Will the cops help?
Can't hurt (well, probably can't hurt) to give them a call...

4. I hate car stereos, but for a different reason
I've had three stolen in 5 months, in addition to a broken passenger window and two locks. I'm travelling over xmas and I have no idea what I'm going to do for tunes.

5. Driving can be so boring..
... I don't know what I'd do without my stereo :)

But yes, those folks who crank up the bass so loud you can hear them coming from a block away - those folks are going to be wearing hearing aids by the time they are 40.

8. I used to teach High School electronics -
And in the spring we would play a test CD with tones that started at 10 Hz or so and and went up to 25,000 or so. Anyway every kid that had a power audio system in their vehicle had hearing problems. Some were down to 10,000 Hz already. We are talking 17 and 18 year olds here.
The classes were told to invest in hearing aid companies.
I don't think we really got through to any of them.

9. We have a game in the city I live in
When a car radio thumps it is soon serenaded by a cacophony of car honking.
