“Noise is a parasite. Anything noisy is poorly designed.” Raymond Loewy
Pollution is one of my greatest irritant, and if it were not for a few morons this plague could be kept in check .
Pollution is everywhere. We have Air Pollution, Water Pollution, Soil Pollution, Radioactive Pollution, Light Pollution, Thermal Pollution, Visual Pollution, Noise Pollution…
We also have pollution in space, on the Internet, and the famous Washington swamp is more toxic than ever.
Let’s never forget that Pollution is a man-made product that benefits a few but harms all of us.
One of the most irksome and most preventable pollutants is noise. Particularly noise produced by motor vehicles. Most of today’s cars are very quiet, especially electric cars; but many “modified” vehicles and Harley Davidson motorcycles owners in particular “choose to swap out the existing exhaust systems for straight pipes.” It then generates an extraordinarily loud and disturbing racket.
“The louder the noise the smaller the equipment. Let’s get one thing priapically straight: Men who ride extremely loud motorcycles have extremely small penises. The louder the bike, the smaller their naughty bit.”
The revving of a Harley Davidson motorcycle is highly irritating. Its repeated artillery salvos are enough to wake up a cadaver.
It does not have to make so much noise. A BMW motorcycle in comparison purrs when a Harley Davidson bellows, and noisier never meant better.
I already hear some people saying, “it is a free country”, but these people might not know the true meaning of freedom. It is written that “One’s freedom stops where the freedom of others begins.”
The minute you step on somebody else’s “freedom” your own so-called “freedom” becomes a nuisance.
Consequently
If you absolutely must make noise, move to a deserted island or make your tumult productive and protest something worth protesting; something like pollution for instance.
