Cmon.... A couple of seconds are a bit too much???

yeah the couple of seconds isn't really my complaint. it's those that camp out places with their music blaring. it's ridiculous. suppose my personal preference is to stand outside and play flamingo lips on my cornet at 11pm. don't get me wrong i don't know too many who don't think that's a catchy little tune but to be out in public at night or even in the day wailing on a musical instrument is absurdly rude. and that's essentially what you are doing when you turn your stereo up too obscene levels and chill or kick it with your homies or vaqueros or whatever. it's rude. there is no getting around it.

If the high music pours outside the pubs, no one minds... but outside a car... "ooo... i hate that"

if a ferrari roars by i'd probably still be a little annoyed. but then again i'm not really complaining about exhausts or engine noise. sometimes these things can't be helped. like harleys and such. it's just how some things are made. there's no volume button really. so i deal with it. but stereo noise isn't as unavoidable.

and a pub where people go specifically to hear music and hang out is way different than forcing everyone in the area to listen to your new nickelback cd. not even close to the same. no one minds because it's what pubs are supposed to do. just like no one minds when an emergency vehicle goes flying by sirens blaring. then again if i stuck a siren on my car and drove around town blasting it i suspect people would be annoyed.
