    Completely baseless assumption, but I think it’s just a continuation of the phenomenon when toddlers get hyped for trucks/tractors/combine harvesters/anything that is big and loud, maybe because it’s associated with power, I don’t know. Some people just stay at this toddler’s mentality and they see everything that’s big and/or loud as something you can boast about. See also: loud exhausts, 6400 deciBel motorcycle sounds, etc.

      Fair. They should just get a job with machine builders. I get paid money to play with power all day. Why hello chemical processing equipment, I see you pull 180amps at 460V. Now let’s see how loud you are when I push start.

      If you havent made an entire factory lights dim are you even alive?
