There ought to be a law...

Here is your chance to speak your mind about your pet peeve and what penalty should be used for those who do what you don't like.

Mine is people walking through a parking lot while looking at their smart phone. Penalty: No phone for a week!

People who blast their car stereos at unbelievably loud volumes should be put to death. No judge, no jury, just kill them. With fire.

It's an aggressive act, a form of sonic-warfare intended to claim space by inflicting one's personal choice of talentless noise on others in the near vicinity.

That's why they always blast out such terrible. lowest-common-denominator, brain-dead 'music'.

I don't recall ever being subjected to Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Wagner, etc in one of these drive by aural assaults.

Anyone, anywhere walking and speaking on their phone. My especial peeve is cyclists who talk and ride at the same time.

And how on earth can you concentrate on driving with that loud noise blasting out??

Public clocks should be required to tell the right time. It's no excuse to say that everyone looks at their phone for the time these days. If a clock is part of a building it should be properly maintained like the rest of the building. This is especially true if it goes bong. It's bad enough if a clock is silent because at least then you can ignore it; but if it strikes then it's actually lying to you and I can't bear liars. Apart from Big Ben, the only bongers in London that I see regularly and trust are St Martin in the Fields and St Paul's.

I live on a corner with a three way light so cars regularly wait there blasting their aural diarrhea for as long as forty seconds .

Mostly hip hop and insipid pop music. Occasionally cheesy 80's metal. I've heard classical music but it's never too loud. Someone was playing Pink Floyd's "Money" the other day.

The latinos are the worst. It seems they are incapable of being able to hear music unless it's louder than a jet engine.
