My downstairs neighbours are complete savages who clearly are not fit to live in a civilization. I hate people who have ZERO regard for others when they ARE living in an apartment complex. She is a ho who has a revolving door of men coming in and out at all times, and her teen daughter always plays music at the HIGHEST possible volume on their stereo with megabass turned UP!!! It is sooo loud that my furtniture is shaking and I can not hear my own voice on the phone; and they do not understand the civil "knocking on the door, asking them to turn it down" requests, nor do they get the "eye for an eye" turning-up-my-stereo-high-playing-Come-to-Daddy-on-repeat while jumping up-and-down punishment. I hate them. I hate them. I hate them.

And the teen girl not only forces me to listen to the music that i would NEVER listen to , let alone listen to it at that kinda high volume (which basically makes me feel like I went to a Britney Spears concert and I am on the first row in front of the stage), but there is this Spanish-language song they play over and over again for days over the years which I don't know the name of, but God knows that is THE song I hate the most because they made me listen to it thousands of times while I am trying to sleep. Anyway, the teen girl not only listens to her music too loudly but also SINGS along with it loudly. Yesterday I screamed while she was singing: "NO, you are NOOOOT going to Hollywood. Now shut UP!!!!"

I so want to have my own private house one day. You really can not choose your neigbours in an apartment building and you are only lucky if you find decent ones.

move?

You supposedly live in NYC. Don't you know that when you find a good , reasonably-priced, spacey place you can not just "move"?

No, I don't know that because I live in a dorm.

It isn't that easy in the real world. Out here you have a little legally-binding contract known as a lease. Usually these last for a year, sometimes less or sometimes more. If you break the lease there are usually crappy consequences, such as restrictions into the next place you can move in (if anyone will take you) or the management can sue.

Tilki, have you complained to the management?

Yeah once. Nothing much came out of it as they went back to their old behaviour, but other neighbours are like them also. It is just the type of the neighbourhood that I live in. If the noise is not too late at night (which usually it is not), then I can't really call the cops either. Also my hours are a bit wacky lately, I work nights and sleep days most of the time depending on the project I am working on, so when they do the full-blast noise it the time that I am tryng to sleep.

She plays Britney Spears ? Haha lets switch houses.

maybe when you go to work next you could put a really really really annoying song on repeat loud. you won't have to listen to it, and it will annoy them.



my new neighbours are old. they wash EVERYDAY even though we're on water restrictions. haha, neighbours are gayshits.

That sucks perhaps it would be worth it to complain again, most landlords i've dealt with have an eviction policy if a particular tenant gets a certain amount of complaints against him, her or them. does your lease mention anything about this?

If I were you, I'd blast that Aha song "Take on Me" or whatever really loud and just leave for a week or something.

They'll have killed themselves by the time you return. Not because it's really a bad song, but because it will drive them crazy.

i hate my neighbors who live above me. our apartment units all have hardwoord floors, so i can hear EVERYTHING that the family above me does. they STOMP hard on the floors, and they have butter fingers because they're always DROPPING SHIT. and then i have to deal with the baby that always SCREAMS and never seems to be having a happy baby life. i fucking hate that family.

i fucking HATE visitors


unless they jam to concrete blonde with me

concrete blonde are badass.

Just go read my thread in Life&Career. We are so in the same situation.

The nearest neighbor that I know of teaches high school. She's been there 3 years. She has a 20 something son that comes and goes. I've never meet them but I see them about the yard and such. Also a couple and their daughter to the other side of the block. They have big yard parties from time to time. They all seem real nice to me.

GOD, I have the exact same problem with the girl above me, only she wasn't allowed to have laminate flooring when she in fact did, and she refuses to take her fucking shoes off.
Even at night when she comes home at 4 am from a bar drunk she stomps around for 30 mins.
If she comes home from work she walks around on her shoes for 2,5 hours because she has a meeting 2,5 hours after coming home.
Seriously, taking off your damed shoes takes what, 4 seconds?
Thing is, I have chronic tension headaches, and high heels and laminate flooring don't really help.
I've so far complained 2 times with the landlord/rental company and they sent her letters.
She now walks on her shoes on her toes. (which doesn't help at all)
I told her, why walk on your toes when you can just take the fucking shoes off?
Better for both of us.
She said it was "her right" to walk on her shows.
I want to kill her.
But the insulation here is shit, I mean I know it's a flat and all, but I can honestly tell weather she is taking a leak or a dump.
I literally her her shit fall in the bowl.
I hear the zippers from her boots, I hear her do the dishes, her TV, EVERYTHING.
Plus, she's single, has a dildo and a squeaky bed.
I've already asked the rental company if they can fix it (the noise, not her bed), but there's apparently a long long waiting list for older flats to get insulation.
Gee, wonder why?!?

I have had my share of upstair neighbour problems in the past. I have very light sleep and I did also hear every single thing that they did. So for the last 7 or so years, I rented only the top floors. I mean dealing with music is one thing, but if on top of that I had to deal again with all the noise of people walking, running at odd hours, I would be one step closer to being the perfect murderer.

I just wanted to say that I hate your neighbours too. And everyone elses. AND. If you were all my neighbours, I'd hate you, too.

Fucking neighbours are the shits.
