This question has been around for a while but I’m curious as to your answer

    “Small penis” is a euphemism/metaphor to describe men who act like obnoxious douchebags because they’re compensating for some undisclosed physical/psychosocial/emotional insecurity.

    Can anyone provide reasons why men intentionally equip their cars with ear-damaging, bone-rattling, illegal decibels of obnoxious maddening noise? This accomplishes nothing for them other than everyone hating them and labeling them as douchebags. People like that are the reason I intentionally do not own a gun because I would lose control with it the first time a car like that comes within my sight.

      I know what the euphemism stands for. But reverse the situation, put small tits somewhere in the sentence and suddenly it’s big bad.

      Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one who tries to imagine what people will feel like when reading stuff. And I’m imagining a guy whose only “crime” is having been born with a small penis and having to constantly read how that makes him a macho.

      Why does everyone forget how to behave when it comes to men? Y’all are being quite disgusting.

        Nah if someone was being a douche because they were compensating for a lack of tits, I’d say they’re in the small tits club.

        As it stands though, it’s just kind of the saying because of some random cultural thing that dates back to at least Shrek probably. (Don’t judge me for my timeframe)

      I am glad I am not the only one who thinks about shooting at loud cars and bikers. I genuinely would if I could.

      Q: Reason why I intentionally have a great car stereo?

      Q: What does it accomplish?

      A: makes me feel better.

      Q: what is your trauma that you feel the need to shoot people that like music you do not?

      A: nothing, you are just in need of help.

        Do you have other sociopathic traits which cause you to thoughtlessly selfishly behave in ways that disturb others/wake people up with heart attacks/wake up sleeping babies/cause noise pollution, for your own pleasure? Do you feel like silence is an uncomfortable void that must always be filled? Do you not realize that silence is the neutral mode in which we all live peaceably, and when silence is broken it’s best done purposefully & meaningfully, not obnoxious & intrusive & selfish? Who wants to hear your music? YOU do. No one else does.

        WEAR HEADPHONES.

              You are a stupid fuck that doesn’t listen. It’s against the law to wear headphone while driving. What the fuck is your problem?

                Keep your car music at a volume that only you can hear. Nobody else wants to hear it. And if you wear headphones while driving, at least that will get you thrown in jail or suspended driver license so society will be better without people like you out there.
