OT: Neighboors Should Be Shot!

Kamog · #1 September 14th, 2003, 09:00 PM

I used to live with a room mate who sometimes decided to play his drums at 2 am in the morning. He would invite a bunch of friends and have late night parties. He wouldn't ask me or warn me about these parties; I found out about them when the loud noise woke me up in the middle of the night. My roommate didn't have a job, and apparently, none of his buddies had to go to work in the morning either, because by morning I found them passed out all over the house. I did have to get up early to go to work, so I was very angry about not being able to sleep. When these guys started bLasting the stereo and playing drums, I'd go out there, turn off the music and yell at these guys to be quiet, and then go back to bed. But a couple of minutes later, they would start again. Then I go and yell at them again. But it was completely futile to try to get these people to quiet down. They were a bunch of inconsiderate jerks and also drunk. I came close to smashing the drums and the stereo and chucking them out the window. A sledgehammer would have come in handy, but I didn't have one. Fortunately I didn't punch the guy in the nose, because there were about five of them and a couple of them were big guys, so a fight wouldn't have been a good idea. I was very tired the next day. It was impossible to reason with my roommate or any of his friends, so on other occasions when he had these parties, I tried to sleep by wearing ear plugs, or I drove away a few blocks and slept in my car. This didn't work very well. I don't live with him anymore.

Being what I consider to be a considerate human being, the actions described below are so alien to me that I can't begin to understand what goes through their minds. I'm a bit older now and less likely to "look the other way". Unfortunately, I've gotten to the point where my only comment about people like that is that I hope they die soon. (sorry to admit it...I'm just of the opinion they'll not be missed much by society).

Those stories Sound pretty bad. I'm glad I haven't had anything like that happen to me. I hate it when people are so inconsiderate of others.

A couple I know (not my neighbours

) used to be disturbed at all hours by extremely vocal and descriptive sex from next door.

I suggested they get a porn dvd, push the speakers up to the wall on max volume, put it on repeat and then go on holiday for a fortnight. They moved house instead... how boring.

I just spread a rumor that I am an homocidal (sp) ex-con with a degree in phscology (sp) who used to work for the CIA with an expert marksmanship trophie from a eight year stint in the Marine Corp. Believe me NO ONE bothers me.

They even feed my cats for me.

Although that does kinda bother me

Damn cats are traiters!
