(15,381 posts)We stayed with families in another city, and everyone was jealous of me because the family I stayed with had two hot daughters. The next day at breakfast, the upperclassmen were expressing their feelings, and I told them, "Actually, it was kind of crazy. They kept pounding on my door throughout the night."
The upperclassmen actually believed me and asked, "Oh, my God, lucky bastard. What did you do?"
"At around 3, I finally unlocked the door and let them out."

He rushed back as soon as he realized it, but it was too late--someone had already put another set of bagpipes in the car.

(15,265 posts)"Three Deckers". The building next to us was still owned by the couple who bought it after WWII and they were still renting to their long time friends on the second floor who had lived their all that time. However the beighborthood was starting to slide a bit. We would all open our windows at night in the summer and at times it could be quite noisy. Worcester is known as the city of Seven Hills and this neighborhood was on one of them. There was another older couple up the street that would occasionally blast recorded bagpipe music late at night or in the early morning hours. I think it was probably a protest or retaliation for rude neighbors who kept them up. There were two 20 something girls who rented the third floor in our neighbors building and the buildings were quite close and one of them was a howler while having sex. Our upstairs neighbors on the third floor were also "loud". He was really big guy and she was also a howler. Despite these "three deckers" being substantially built buildings the building would shake when they were going at it. Our landlords, a young couple who had recently bought the place and lived on the first floor politely asked if it was us at one time. They could feel and hear all the way down stairs.
Well one one July night morning at about 1am it all hit a fever pitch crescendo. The couple upstairs were going at.the building was shaking and the girlfriend was howling. The two girls in the apartment next door must of both gotten lucky because they were both howling and the couple up the street was blasting the bagpipe music and finally sone neighbors dogs were howling along with it all.

(15,381 posts)I discovered that the stereo I had in college in the dorms was pretty good though I played it at a respective volume until I need to retaliate. You know what cuts through bass really well? Even deeper bass, and the soundtrack to Beetlejuice has some deep bass on it. Also, what cuts through bass really well is brass - specifically trumpet. And guess whose mother thought a CD of Mariachi music was a good gift to encourage me to keep studying Spanish?
