Lady GaGa, Kanye,Jay-Z, Rihanna, and the list goes on and on, their music/videos, is DEMONIC and if you'll don't see anything wrong with it and allow your children to listen to that garbage, well then GOD HELP YOU!!! Jeez, people don't be so DECEIVED!! DO YOUR RESEARCH!! Stop allowing everything to feed into your spirit. (I'm sure you're gonna have a rebuttal but you try to enjoy the rest of your day and anyone else who wants to keep fueling the flames.) Let it go. smh

Do YOUR research - A) not everyone shares your beliefs, and B) to assume so in the multi-national diversity that is the metro-DC area simply shows YOUR arrogance and bigotry.

Blessed Be!

All I can tell you is: you have been DECIEVED my dear! Stay out of Egypt! That's a Christian joke, but u probably have no clue what that means, do you? What a shame! smh!



Wow - just... wow.

I never thought I'd read such bigotry on the slug-lines board, in the 17 years I've been riding or driving.

ON TOPIC: While I do have my iPod/phone handy, sometimes music is still too loud in the back to be able to hear it w/o turning it way up - and I can't afford to lose my hearing.

If I'm really wanting to turn up a station, or a new CD, I'll adjust the balance to favor the front left (Driver) portion of the car. So far, no complaints, other than the occasional "Could you please increase the volume?"

Please be careful what you do/say - although I view slugging as safe, you never know what that driver is going to do.


Oh, good Lord![:0] That's where this driver was headed too. Do you think....? This young woman did have a weird look on her face and yes she did inch her car up a little towards me. I didn't stand there long; I quickly jotted the info down and stepped away. Still, I know that wasn't very wise of me to do. I'll have to be a little more discreet next time. It sounds like you may have some inside information on that situation? Was it by word of mouth that you heard about this? I do appreciate the information and your concern.

I clearly understand the ride is free ETC, and clearly I WILL NOT ride with that person again, but just give the slugger(s) the option that's all. There should be an unspoken air of respect on both sides. I too have been a driver, and I realize not everyone is going to be as courteous and polite as the next person. But you know, what I am going to start doing atleast for a while, upon entering a vehicle: if I hear questionable music/volume tone, that will be my cue to inquire and/or exit. Thank God I have encountered more respectable drivers than the bouncing, bobbing "club cars" early in the MORNING. lol. Jeez!

I had a very unpleasant experience Friday (15th) morning when I boarded this young woman's vehicle at RT. 17 (Stafford). There was already a guy in the back seat. No sooner as I got in, and before we even got out the parking lot she clicks on the CD, volume already set LOUDLY and out blast this sensually provocative R&B song. NEVER ONCE ASKED US: "Does my music bother you all?", "is it too loud?" SHE HAD ABSOLUTELY NO REGARD FOR THE PASSENGERS IN HER VEHICLE! It was like she was possessed and in her own zone! I was prepared to get out but she zoomed out the parking lot onto the road so fast she really didn't give us a choice. I gave her a look and even asked her 10 minutes into the ride, "would you mind just turning the volume down a little?" She smacked her lips and appeared to be annoyed and tapped the button lightly, not really making a difference. The succession of OFFENSIVE songs continued: Lady GaGa, Jay-Z, some other Pop/R&B songs I didn't recognize. I couldn't believe it! The guy in the back wasn't saying anything. He was probably thinking, "hey, I'll deal with it' I'm just trying to get to work." NO! IT'S NOT ACCEPTABLE!

Once we got to the Pentagon -- the guy was headed to Crystal City -- I quietly got out and stood directly in front of her vehicle and wrote down her tag number. She shouted something out the window but I acted like I didn't even hear it and proceeded to walk away.

In closing: FOR THOSE DRIVERS WHO ENJOY LISTENING TO THEIR LOUD, NASTY, OBNOXIOUS MUSIC, THAT'S YOUR PREROGATIVE! BUT DO IT ON YOUR OWN TIME!!!! DON'T PICK UP SLUGGERS IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO EXTEND COURTESY AND RESPECT TO AT LEAST ASK, "DOES MY MUSIC/VOLUME BOTHER YOU?" GIVE THE SLUGGER THE OPTION OF STAYING OR EXITING YOUR VEHICLE. THANK YOU.


*****I want to take this opportunity to apologize not only to the site administrator but to the other users who clicked on this topic expecting to be informed of related issues dealing with the slugging community, but instead was subjected to dialogue that had absolutely nothing to do with the matter at hand. This was not my original intention. Politics and religion as we know are two subjects that can take on a life of its own. I'll be the first to acknowledge that this is definitely not the platform for airing our personal beliefs on such heated issues no matter how strongly our convictions are. Again, my apologies for opening that gateway.*****

I hope you don't get into a car with Sirius/XM channel 104/150 playing (Raw-Dog comedy uncensored). I've been in a few and saw nothing wrong with it. For the stuff that's of no interest to me regardless of the volume, I put on my over the head ear phones on, turn up my own volume and enjoy the ride.

Give folks an option. Yes, sluggers want a free ride and the DRIVERS want the benefit of HOV. WE ALL BENEFIT FROM EACH OTHER, eh?

To address your question: Jay-Z's lyrics is very offesive! Are you kidding me?!? And aside from that, he along with half the rap/entertainment industry are DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. DO YOUR RESEARCH YOUNG MAN. Unless you've sold your SOUL TO THE DEVIL AS WELL! HMMM.....

Stay outta my car then... I've got an Ozzy Osbourne CD in there now. Though I do not wish to replace my speakers, and I value my hearing, it is played at a reasonable volume.

I'd just hate to be the subject or a confession or something.

-------------------------
Times to beat:
Horner Rd to/from Pentagon: 12 mins Without Slugs - 17 mins With slugs
Dale City exit to/from 3rd St Tunnel, D.C. 18 mins (No slugs - Holiday)

You should keep your personal beliefs,(religious) to yourslef as some of us don't share your views or beliefs. Stick to the facts that you were making about a rude driver and leave it that....we all have had bad expiernces...thank you for the heads up..now move on...
