I lol'd. A lot. I used to live next to an apartment building filled with people who loved to blast Spanish polka. I called it the oompa oompa noise.

It was really astonishing the first time we came upon Spanish polka at top volume. timprov and I were going for a hike in the hills near our apartment in Hayward, CA, and we pulled up next to a car filled with Mexican-American teenagers. With our own car doors closed, we could only hear the bass, so when we opened the car doors and heard accordion music, we were quite startled.

They call me "Thumper."

=v= I kinda like the thumps, but I totally agree with you about the oontz-oontz.

I am not opposed to music with a strong bass beat. I am opposed to music whose strong bass beat is imposed upon the unwilling, and to music with no other features.
