For a while there was no one in the apartment above me so when someone moved in there I had expected that I would have to adjust to the noise but what the fuck?

They moved in about a month ago so I have given myself plenty of time to adjust to the new noise level and I have come to the conclusion that its not me being a bitch about it.

They have torn the place apart (with the landladys approval), new cabinets, etc. were installed at all hours of the night. I let this go. Young couple, they are trying to get the place ready as they are expecting a baby in the next couple months.

No big deal, I can get over that. Now they have a workbench type thing set up right outside my daughters bedroom window where they're running saws and what not, again at all hours, morning and/or night.

Once the "construction phase" was over I figured things would settle down a bit with all the noise. But oh hell no.

These people cant even close a door in a manner which would create a normal decible (sp?) level door closing noise. Everything is fuggin loud, from stomping feet up the stairs, slamming doors and cabinets, etc..

Fuck they cant even get out of bed in the middle of the night to use the shitter at a normal noise level.

The people ABOVE them and beside them are downright pissed off and cant understand how in the hell I am dealing with it. Landlady called ME because everyone else in the building had called HER complaining about them.

Yet nothing has changed. So I have taken to revenge. After all who doesn't want to hear the theme song from the Sopranos or Men Without Hats "Safety Dance" blasted at 6:30-7am?

The more this persists, the cornier my morning music is gonna get.

Which reminds me, I need to go download some Beegees.

The beegees,... if that doesn't do it nothing will. Time to move.

I don't show up on the who's online section.

If that doesn't work the next step is porn, cranked as loud as I can get it at all hours of the day and night. I'll keep it quiet for a while and then like at 3am or something I'll pop in some smut and crank it for a few minutes.

Don't forget to bang your bed against the wall to add to the show...lol

[dhuze]

I would call your "landlady" and demand she does something. Ask her for her home number so you can call her everytime they get loud so she'll know how it feels.

By the way did they ever fix your bathroom?

[mikeb]

never take an apartment where your on the bottom or middle floor! been there done that. destroyed apartment using ax handle to bang on ceiling and walls. btw if your going to use music try death metal. scare the piss out of them!

[stoinkythepig]

What's wrong with the theme song to the Sopranos? I like that song.

And "SSSS AAAA FFFF EEEE TTTT YYYY DANCE!" just never gets old.

[Tricky Mike]

wait till they're gone and sneak upstairs... slide their fridge out and stick a nice fresh catfish in the back of it... right next to the compressor. Go back downsatirs and smile. They'll probably never figure it out and assume it's food in the fridge which will probably cause them to throw everything out more than once.

"You can dance if you want to..."

Well they're no friends of mine

Being vengefull isn't the way to solve this problem. If the landlady and noone else speaks to them then they don't even know there's a problem. If they have then you need to speak to them again and ask them to be more considerate. If they wake you up at all hours, bang on their door at all hours and tell them. If they're rude about it then seek other measures. Vengence is the refuge of the weak. What you're doing is just going to piss off your other neighbors and make you the asshole.

It's obvious you have been on the receiving end of revenge. Revenge is sweet. That makes it delicious. Mmmmmm revenge.

Nothing wrong with the song from the Sopranos, I only mentioned that one because of the kick ass bass line, sure to impress at the ass crack of dawn. Of course it would have much more effect if I were to go out and play it in the car instead, rattle their windows.

No I've been on the giving side many times, and learned that will only escalate everything. Confrontation and making people feel like assholes works better. Especially when you have no choice but to live with it everyday.

These people are disturbing you that much unintentionally, wait till you see what they can intentionally do.

I am sooooo past the being reasonable thing. I passed that point about 2 weeks ago. They HAVE been spoken to, by me, by other neighbors, by the landlady. They just dont give a fuck. If I cant get anywhere being reasonable, then I'll get somewhere in my own little way. And if that makes me a vengeful bitch, so be it.

In the meantime, I will gladly welcome all suggestions of annoying music and/or "get my point across" tactics you might have to offer.

When baby arrives, if they're smart, they will then learn how to be quiet for their own sake. They'll also learn what sleep deprivation is all about.

Besides, I could deal with a baby crying. I'm a mom and I remember those days, its this stupid shit that pisses me off.

Does anyone else like the fact that the lady has her OWN porn stash?

You have to get out of there. If they haven't fixed the bathroom by now its just a sign of things to come...or not come. Screw that place.
