I think I've tapped my tank once with my dive knife because I saw a sting ray. It was on my first trip to the ocean, so I was excited. :) But I try not to bother anyone else usually and just like to sight see.

I tapped my tank once with my dive knife - never again - afterwards I found while doing it I'd practically sliced through the lp hose on my secondary and I had to replace it. :depressed:
 
Once I was in the water and had the joy of another divers home made underwater walk man. I hate RAP, I hate it even more underwater.

Like I said, I don't hear well underwater or above but sometimes it's not a bad thing. I agree with you!

When sitting at a stoplight next to someone who has their RAP blaring, I will turn up my conservative right wing talk radio station. That usually gets me a nasty look.:D

That's not fair. I wouldn't do that to you! Besides, I was thinking more along the lines of Hannity or Beck:rofl3:

Sorry man ... my humor takes strange turns sometimes.

Personally, I like country rap (aka "crap") ...

I used to hang out in a bar that had 2 kinds of music, Country and Western.
 
I've only ever encountered noise polluters in Thailand. It was always the dive guides and/or instructors. Lots of idiot DMs there though...

Hear hear!

I told one DM that I'll break his stick if he will continue to bang his tank every 10 seconds! It drove me crazy and I've only spent 2 days diving Similan's there.

Ouch, that has to hurt. I don't have any hoses on my left side at all, aside from the one attached to my BC, so I am pretty safe from that one. I only have two hoses which is nice to avoid any "hose accidents"
