As If That Guy on the Bus Wasn’t Annoying Enough with His Music: The Personal Subwoofer

Alan Cross 0 Comments

I like deep bass with my music as much as the next guy but unlike that kid with the souped-up Civic down the block, I tend to keep it to myself.  And the good thing about the kid with the Civic is that he’s in motion.  The THUMPTHUMPTHUMP only lasts for a few seconds.

But what if you encountered someone on the bus with one of these “personal subwoofers.”  What are the chances that he’ll be set upon and tore to shreds by people dired of having their chests compressed by the latest remix from DJ Tiesto?
