    I hear assholes in muscle cars going by outside my window a few times a day, and their cars are so loud following traffic at like 30-40 mph. I would get it if they were racing or something, but if your car is doing just normal low-level driving why does it need to make so much noise?

    It feels like if a person walked from one room to another while panting and gasping for air like they just did an intense sprint. I would be more likely to call an ambulance than hi-five them.

      That’s actually my fault.

      I stole all their catalytic converters to pay a lobbying group to get the local politicians to fund mass transit. Instead the batards passed vaguely worded noise ordinances that get selectively enforced by so-called public servants to target certain groups.
      Sorry about that.

      What they should really have is bypass mufflers, where that loudness only comes at high RPM.

      Sadly, most do not…
