The guy who invented (and the guy who decided to market) the “Home Theater Surround Sound” systems should be forced to wear one around his neck at all times, playing someone else’s movies that he can’t see the picture of! This is what it’s been like living in an apartment complex or a condo ever since these infernal devices have been available! In a house, it’s maybe acceptable; but in an apartment building, these subwoofer systems rumble the floors and the ceilings and walls to a ridiculous extent, making the bass even louder upstairs and downstairs from the source apartment, like the whole building is some kind of giant speaker itself! It’s ridiculous!
I don’t want to sound mean or anything, but I really hope there’s a special place in hell reserved for the people who invented such wonderful things as boom-box Jeeps, the home theater surround sound system, the car alarm, etc., where they get to be continuously exposed to them for all eternity, with no escape; for only then will they realize what they have wrought!
And get off my lawn, you damn kids! (As in, I know this makes me sound like a complaining old curmudgeon; but anyone who has experienced this sensation, regardless of age, how can you stand it? It’s intolerable!)
