To all of you complaining ... I'll sum things up for you succinctly:

Life sucks, get a ****ing helmet

We are not talking about loud parties and noisy neighbors. People are complaining about a bus of tourists with little toy quackers. We are not talking about loud parties at 2am or people running jackhammers at 6am. We are talking about families with kids riding down the street on a Saturday afternoon listening to YMCA. And what's with calling them obnoxious because they honk a plastic toy while having fun? How is it at "the expense" of anyone? Are you suffering physical pain? Is this emotionally stressful? If so, perhaps you should re-read KenFMT's post:
Quote:
This is what psychiatrists call "paranoid delusions". They aren't playing music and quacking "just to get on your nerves". They're doing it to have fun. YOU are letting it get on your nerves. Stop projecting your self induced problems.
Who is being ridiculous here???

Hint: its not me.

Loud is loud, no matter who is making the noise! and they do try to annoy you on purpose, when the tour guide yells at everyone to give a quack and then blasts his music as loud as possible...so why can't steiner call that obnoxious if he wants to?

Walt,

Given the epidemic of gun violence facing this city, I find your use of a cross-hairs in your logo to be insensitive at best. Until you change it, I'm calling for all civic minded responsible people to boycott your little movement.

His movement will be as effective as Larry West's run for Mayor. Well, at least Larry is a kid....

Two guesses, Walt:

1. You have stationary that says "From the Desk of Walt Whatever."

2. You've written at least five letters to local networks commenting about their programming.

Philly's streets are awash in the blood of shooting victims and you can't change your logo? So you'd exploit the pain and misery of the more than 350 families that have lost a loved one to senseless gun violence this year? This is a travesty ladies and gentlemen that cannot be allowed to stand. It most certainly calls for a boycott of Walt's anti-duck movement. I'm calling on all responsible, civic-minded, Philadelphians to stand with me in solidarity so that we can put a stop to this madness.
