Please don't share...

The Bug Family was having dinner at our local burger joint. The air conditioning wasn't working inside, so we were outside at the picnic tables enjoying the cool breeze.

We were just about finished when a relatively new silver car pulled into the grocery store parking lot about fifty yards away. The guy got out. He was tall - I mean really tall - and bald. He opened his passenger side door and proceeded to blast his radio. Let me just say that his tunes weren't offensive, but they sure were loud. The guy walked around, smoked his cigarette, and then sat in the passenger seat.

We watched... we waited...
Is this a new trend?
Nobody else was doing it.
Was the guy famous and we didn't know it?
Why would you only open the passenger side door?
Maybe because that's the door that is closest to the burger joint?
Why would you park in the grocery store lot and blast your music?
Grambug thinks he wanted to share his music with all of us.
I'd rather he didn't...

The motivations of some other people are sometimes such a mystery.

What an odd sequence of events.

Sometimes "SHARING IS NOT CARING"...

I can not stand it when people blast their music for the rest of the place to hear. And what an odd thing to do - just open the door and sit there sharing his racket with all of the lovely patrons! I would have been so annoyed and probably would have left!
Hope your food was good at least since the unwanted entertainment sounds like it was not

Some folks were born to share. I think he was testing the car out for a boom box installation.
