"De bwootooth dewice is readey to paih"

There is this fucking guy at my local park that sets up a full DJ system with giant speakers and “spins” electronic music, by himself, with no audience, loud as FUCK, at least one day every goddamn weekend for multiple hours. Everyone loathes him, but he doesn’t seem to care.

I believe that they do for the attention, they must notice the nasty looks, they must know most people find that annoying in a place like that

Where I live both are acceptable, but it depends on where you go

If you go to the "main beach" that's where you bring music. You show off your body, you listen to loud music, you cruise, etc...

But if you go the "locals beach", you show up looking like shit, keep your music down, and lots of people drink illegally but they do so low-key so while we all know they're doing it, nobody cares

To me, both are acceptable. It kind of sucks to think there is no place at the beach where you can party

But it also kind of sucks to think that there is no place at the beach where you can actually enjoy the ocean

SO we have both, you just need to know where to go

Music vs 10 ppl trying to loudly talk over each other

Probably road their loud ass motorcycle to get there.

This just screams I beg for attention! Look at me !

There's a point where its way too obnoxious but I think it's fine as long as you find your own space. We all kind of silently claim spots in public spaces like the beach so just claim somewhere that is not too close to other people.

When I want the serenity I go off to the side where no one is. I don't think it's a big deal.

Someone blasted their playlist during a citywide fireworks display...why would I want to hear the explosions.

It’s not like people bringing loud music to the beach is something new and different.

It's like people have none sense of why they go places.

A few years back, I did a lantern-lit tour of Mammoth Cave. I've done them in the past, and the ambiance, sound, smell, and flicker of firelight gives a very close yet mysterious feeling to the tour. This time though, as soon as we got into the cave, half the dipshits on the tour had their harsh white cellphone flashlights going everywhere, completely ruining the experience that they (and other people) had just fucking paid for. They really need to have a "movie theater" cellphone policy for those kinds of tours.

JOKE'S ON YOU ASSHOLE, I DON'T LISTEN TO THIS PLAYLIST ANYWHERE ELSE, BECAUSE I MADE IT JUST FOR THIS BEACH TRIP!

I have come to understand that there is a subset of people that have never spared a thought for anyone else. They probably have never even considered the fact that I don't want to listen to their stupid bullshit. The thought never crossed their mind, not even once.

Yeah let's go for a semi-relaxing float down the river...oh look 2 dipshit trashy rednecks blasting their shitty country/hip-hop playlist over a cheap Walmart amp-sized speaker with the sound quality of a flip phone.

I swear the next time I go on one of those I need an air pistol that only shoots small darts. Fire one at the float carrying that speaker and just float on happy.

Thank you, I specifically crafted this 3 hour slam death metal and goregrind compilation for my 5am beach walk by the residential area.

Hey you're welcome. I really enjoy my Bluetooth speaker at the beach. I play it just loud enough so when I'm sitting in my area in my little tent that I can hear it. If you're sitting close enough to me to be able to hear your music then you can fuck off.
