civic going 30 in a neighborhood in the middle of the night at 7k rpm blasting music with walmart subs

As a hybrid civic owner, I’m offended. But then again, there are some kids in the neighborhood with a type R, a spoiler that is absurdly large and the engine being loud as fuck in general, so I also understand it.

My wife and I were cruising around in our brand new Accord Touring Hybrid the other night for the feeling of nostalgia. We rolled down our street slowly, all the windows down blasting some mellow jazz all while our car didn’t make a whisper itself. You could slightly hear the audible warning it makes when it is moving slow or in reverse. (https://youtu.be/K_7Hd3M2qrc)
We sure showed those kids a thing or two!
(In all seriousness, the Touring Hybrid is a sick car.)

A bigger muffler would be quieter, though
There’s one in my neighborhood with a fart can. I love hearing it every morning at 6am.

Whales are louder than guns?

Not only can baleen whales emit calls that travel farther than any other voice in the animal kingdom, these giants of the deep also create the loudest vocalisations of any creature on earth: the call of a blue whale can reach 180 decibels – as loud as a jet plane, a world record.

They’re loud enough to kill you if you’re swimming to close

6am, time to build that shed! I have a busy afternoon scheduled of sitting in the garage drinking and picking at my belly button lint.
