My neighbors are LOUD TALKERS
Like clockwork, night after freaking night, they come outside and start talking in their annoying loud tones about 9:30 each night. What the hell is wrong with their house?

The worst part is, I can't even eavesdrop. It's all a mish-mash of words, kind of like the sounds of tons of bees with occasional, sorority-girl-like shrieking. Am I wrong to hate these people? :shrug:

Shut up!!! :argh:

5. I don't even know who these people are
No kids, that much is clear. It seems like they have 40 or 50 college students living there. They seem to always be different, as if it's an ever-rotating group. At least they keep the place up but they irritate me.

13. Search the archives
The point I was making, not so clearly, was that quite a few apartment swelers have to deal w/ this situation. Some people have no class, and no respect for others.

Eventually I moved. All I can suggest is that you do the same. My condolences, though, as I know exactly what you're going through.

Either that, or they're college kids, right? If you don't have to go to work tomorrow, maybe you could just could go get high with them? (In the interest of fairness, I shouls mention that I don't get high anymore -- I just rail agaisnt those damnable unruly college kids.)

2. I had to listen to a college couple fight in the dorm next to me.
Last semester I was up until 3 AM because the salacious details of their relationship. She had an abortion, then he fucked around, and about half way through the fight he hit her. I really was freaked out by the whole thing. Barely slept.

At least you can use the material for your screenplay, I guess you can look on the bright side.:shrug:

Or maybe it isn't - you took me to a Seinfeldian place - sorry!

8. our neighbors whoop and laugh like hyenas,
then yell at their dog when it starts barking. And they often have parties starting at 10:00, with one music: (descending) BOOM BOOM BOOM (ascending) BOOM BOOM BOOM (descending) BOOM BOOM BOOM (ascending) BOOM BOOM BOOM ... repeat ad nauseam

18. no, I'm midway between Los Angeles and San Diego
and the neighbors go WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP,getting louder and more hysterical. And jumping on the trampoline is screamingly funny, leading to more whoops and whinnies. Then they yell at their dog for barking at them once they hit 60-80 dB

9. No, you are not wrong to hate those people
I'm not crazy about my neighbors either, because our master bedrooms share a common wall (whose bright idea was THAT?). So yes, sometimes I can hear them having sex. Actually it's mainly her who is loud...loud and very high pitched. It's embarrassing.

10. Join the club.
Our next door neighbors will be outside at midnight with a crowd on their porch. Once they had a fight at 3 in the morning. If I had the cash I'd buy that house from the landlord and tear it down.

12. Mine are, too, but with 3 YAPPING DOGS!!!
They let them out to do their business, not on a leash, oh no. That would mean one of them would have to walk. No, they just yell at them from their deck the whole time. Scares my daughter every night. I can eavesdrop because they are so loud and most of it is profane. I am worried that my daugther will pick it up (she's 2). Aren't neighbors wonderful? And to think I left my little rural town for this!

16. Just post a note on some outlaw biker bulletin boards...
...that you're the baddest dude in town, and you're ready willing and able to tempt fate, cheat death and kick ass. Especially anybody's ass that rides one of them sissy faggot harleys with the training wheels.

You already know what address to use. :evilgrin:

19. Can you do anything to muffle the sound - play opera or something
loud? We have two "sound machines" which we use to camouflage noise.

20. On one side of our house we had renters...
Two guys... And they played their music LOUD into the wee hours of the morning so much so that our walls shook. Calling them didn't help, or going to their door, or even calling the fellow who actually owned the house and was renting it out.

Eventually they moved out and when the owner went in to check it out before they left, the house was filthy and in shambles. There was trash everywhere, and the guys had started painting stars on the ceiling and were constructing walls in the basement.

Weirdos!
