Please oh please people who take the bus and listen to music – turn it down!!!! I love music , listen to music all the time, appreciate that music is how people make public transit bearable! But no one wants to hear just bass, muffled lyrics, and that general annoying racket that is second hand, only annoyingly audible music. Maybe you don’t know how loud it is? Maybe you want everyone to be awed by your selection/love of beyonce ( or as I am being tortured with right now – something akin to the Dixie Chics) maybe you are just completly oblivious to those around you – who know. but please TURN IT DOWN!!
PS going to look for a car this wknd!!! —Driven ( via bus) insane !!!

I don’t mind overhearing gospels and choirs, some A Capella… but definitly not all, lol. You must be talking about that rap music. Just horrible disco with obscene lyrics. Just like the posters on here.
Maybe you should get a pair of headphones like everyone else!
The downside of public tranportation is the public part. People are annoying creatures. You really have to pick your battles and your bitch isn’t really worth a battle.
if you love music op, put in some headphones.
Some headphones are just shit at keeping things private.
Boyonce!!! Turn that shit up! She’s one bodacious babe, and that voice! Holy Flying Spaghetti Monster she can SING!
Has anyone ever thought of telling the people to turn it down, to their faces?
Fact of the day: Old school TV’s with the bunny ears… When they’re picking up static, or ‘snow’, approximately 1% of this static is actually interference from the Cosmic Microwave Emission, microwave remnants from the Big Bang. We’re actually eavesdropping on the infancy of the Universe.
I love Neil deGrasse Tyson
So you’re going to waste a whole lot of money because once in a while you have to hear someone’s music?
Only came across a couple people in my extensive busing experiences that had actually decent music (to my ears) playing…
I had a potential one the other day who started with megadeath and acdc…
but when loverboy came on and then a barrage of hip hop, he was stricken from the list.
Fact… yes, captain, while beyonce can sing…
if you replace our sea shanties with beyonce, I will mutiny.
She has only a single song in her arsenal that doesn’t make me cringe from beginning to end…. and I still can’t explain why, exactly.

They will love wearing hearing aids in another 10, 20 years.
