yerdax1365yHave this kind of neighbors, welcome to Guatemala, and use those plasticine earbuds wrapped in plastic once in a while after some time you'll forget about noise, listen to baroque music, noise is rather a kind of mental resonance among your own inner noise and the external one
-
@yerdax - I usually have to put my earphones in and listen to music in order to drop off. But it’s just not something I should have to do in my opinion.
-
@kfalencik - This is a great idea. But what if they open the door and catch me?
-
@Demolishun - The apartment is owned by the council. A lady came around yesterday and said she’d have a word with them. No change yet so I’m assuming g she hasn’t sorted a visitation order yet.

It's the natural circle of life. They won't let you sleep, you pee on their doormat. They finally caught you doing it, you politely explain your neighbourly nightly tradition and before you know it you're best friends. You go to the swings together, build sand castles on the beach, tell each other secrets, build pillow forts. At some point you realise that someone new is peeing on your neighbours doormat. They suddenly stop talking to you or inviting you over. You start drinking and taking all sorts of drugs to cure your sadness. Then one time half-awake on your way for more booze you notice your neighbour laughing with another guy. Your heart is broken. You go home, take gasoline, put their fucking doormat on fire. Police arrives. You won't go to prison. Writes a suicide note to your cheating neighbour, put a gun in your mouth and pull the trigger. Nothing happens though, the gun is full of piss, your piss from the doormat. You swear to get revenge on them while police takes you away.

@d4ng3r0u5 - See, I don’t want to play music loudly because if I then tell the council, they’ll just say that I’m no different to them. I did end up shouting, “shut the fuck up,” at my ceiling to make them stop having sex. That seemed to work for a little while... or at least until the sun came up.
-
@kfalencik - Reading that disturbing set of events, I am nothing but impressed. Nice job. At least now I know where I’ll end up in a few months.

rant1ng44625yKnock on door.
Tell them your alcoholic, wife that you met in prison, who served time for murdering her neighbors, asked you to tell them to be quiet. -
yerdax1365yI once lived in town and this dwarf guy used to come to my front door with his pals, to have beer. I invented a recipe to make artificial shit, out of grinded cardboard, modelled as real dog 💩, lol, they never sat there again, as soon as new 💩 appeared there at the door

yerdax1365yIn USA laws are enforced, Latinos tend to be shitty neighbors due to lack of education, but here in Latin America, we are the boss
-
nnee4675yAsk them to quiet down. Failing that, it is likely they use internet to listen to music. WiFi being rather insecure...
-
I had to move to a detached suburb house because of noisy neighbours' kids, but I can now also listen to metal until 3 am in weekends if I want. It gives so much freedom, move to a suburb a bit outside city if you can.
-
tyrr215ySpam the council with complaints 👴. It's annoying but I imagine the more you complain the more it bugs them to sort it out?
-
Subsonic sound weapons aimed at their house. It causes a sense of dread and fear of impending doom but it’s not audible to the human ear.
Get one.

delete195yI have this exact problem at the moment. Neighbors in apartment building have a party two nights a week on work nights. I’ve missed days of work and loads of social things due to being tired.
I’ve gone next door and told them to be quiet seperate 3 times at around 2 am so far.
They did it again Thursday night so I’m now taking to building managers / estate agents etc who are going to get on their case. We’ll see what happens...
In the meantime looking at new apartments 😴 -
yerdax1365yI have been in jail, noise is wonderful after you understand that humans are in different stages of evolution. We are noisy species, then coming down from our fluffy cloud once in a while is good. If I had to choose whether noisy neighbors and noisy inmates, I definitely prefer the neighbors. Do not suffer pals, noise is life, being astray is marvelous, it does not mean there is not noise in your life
-
@yerdax - Unfortunately, as somebody who hasn’t been to jail, I would prefer my neighbours to be respectfully quiet. They don’t have to be silent. But if they’re gonna have their music blasting and screaming sex in the middle of the night, I’m gonna be pretty mad.
-
@yaaaasfish @Nanos - The council are often useless. I told the advisor that manages our area about the last neighbours, (they would scream at and attack each other at literally all hours), and even though she spoke to them, it continued. They would have rowdy sex as well. I’m not sure whether it’s the council or the area. Either way, both are bad.

Fucking hell man I needed to reply to this shit too when I saw your recent rant. Dude, my neighbors blast their bachata EVERY FUCKING WEEKEND WITHOUT FAIL. SAT-SUN FROM 7PM-AM ON BOTH DAYS.
I’m about to call the cops on they ass because non-emergency services is useless af. They’ll send cops sure, but they lie and say they observed no disturbances meanwhile YOU CAN OBVIOUSLY FUCKING HEAR THE MUSIC FROM OUTSIDE THE APARTMENT BUILDING 🙄
I did resort to splashing their doorknob and bottom corner of their front door with piss and as I observed each new person and reoccurring person coming outside of their apartment door, they sniffed their hand a few times and walked away like it was a normal smell 😂😭
FUCK RUDE NEIGHBORS. -
@Superviral - Duuude, I’m sorry you’re having to deal with the same thing. It’s like they just don’t realise there’s other people in the building. And obviously the people that have the resources to move away are gonna be okay, but for those on low pay it’s not a great situation. Literally nothing you can do without making yourself homeless. But I’d rather have no sleep and a roof over my head. It’s just a shame.
-
@apatheticmirry what’s funny is that I rant about it, and an hour later THEY STOPPED PLAYING MUSIC FOR ONCE.
I enjoyed last night as one of the very first weekends I actually enjoyed since moving into this godforsaken building.
How would you deal with noisy neighbours that cause sleep interruptions every. single. night? Y’know, as an introverted person who’s scared of being stabbed by said neighbours.
The pettier the better.
