[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Should Ipods be banned in downtown areas?

Posted: 3/1/2006 7:20:21 AM EDT

You know what I hate?

When I'm walking through downtown Dallas and I come to a crosswalk with other people (especially close to a bus stop or train stop) and you get 3 or four people standing there waiting for the light, listening to their Ipod and rapping along with the song they are listening. It's like being trapped in an acapella rap hell!!!

Yes.....ban them. That is always the answer.

Ban iPods? No.

Make public singing a shoot-on-sight offense? Sure!

Get your own ipod and load it up with Kenny Rodgers. Then go out for revenge.

iPods don't kill songs, people that cannot sing kill songs.

DON'T BLAME THE iPOD!!!!

If you ban bans then the ban on bans is banned, hence bans can't be banned

I just crapped myself reading that.

Ban them? No. If someone is singing out loud while listening to an Ipod, and it annoys you, the best answer is two in the back of the head.

I had a large gentleman with a carribean accent singing to himself in the seat next to me the whole flight from Atlanta to LaGuardia yesterday. Just before we landed, he says "I got da groove mon". I said, "You may have the groove, but you've got a voice to make a CD player cry". He laughed, I laughed.

Of course, it's easier to say that sort of shit when you know the guy's been through a metal detector...
