My patience is wearing thin with the tenants upstairs, who are allowing their toddler to thump on my bedroom ceiling at midnight. If he wasn't such a little blighter, I'd swear he was jumping on a pogo stick. They have also flooded my bathroom yet again, and I have a mouldy ceiling yet again. /moan

"S4T4N S3Z SHUT TEH FUCK UP LOL" w/a pentagram. In blood.
My boss has a pretty funny story about he and his band-mates' house getting robbed by their neighbors when they lived in a sketchy 'hood in the 90's. He got really drunk, blasted Sabbath out his open windows, burned a pentagram in his front yard and stood shirtless outside by the flames. He then proceeded to establish eye contact and point menacingly at everyone who happened to drive by, all while swinging his shirt above his head. They had no more trouble.

btw he was in a surf/garage instrumental combo with a predilection for bowling shirts, just to add to the ridiculousness of it all.

Why is their toddler up at midnight? Has to keep swimming because of flooded flat.

My next door neighbour, who bought the house last year, has been hammering and drilling into the wall we share for MONTHS now. A couple of hours every day. I guess he's DIYing the thing and he's not very experienced. How much patience is a normal neighbour expected to have for this kind of thing? He hasn't let me know anything, he hasn't asked me anything, it's like I don't live here, the way he's going on about it. Does he not know it sounds and feels like he's in my house whenever he does this?
I can't call the cops before I ask about it personally, which I can't, because I'm an angry coward and I only shut my doors very loudly hoping he will realize that if he hears me I hear him too, to no avail. Putting a new kitchen and bathroom in isn't forbidden, I know that, but I'm all out of patience and I would just be too angry to speak my mind calmly if I went and rang his door bell. I'm not writing a letter, that would be too passive/aggressive ("I'm sorry I'm not bothering you by living here next to you quietly" etc)
GRRRRRRR

I've bought headphones which I'm wearing to listen to music and watch TV every night and every weekend - IN MY OWN HOUSE - but it's not helping much.I'll go sit in my car in the garage to cool down now - again.

One of my previous neighbours from hell has returned after an 18 month prison sentence and he is pissing me off already by throwing bifta ends over the wall. His partner and kids are hard work as well, but not bad people, in fact his kids are quite hilarious at times.
But this fucker is a vortex of bad shit and I have been getting worried recently that I might end up in a situation that leads to physical violence and he is only a scrawny lil shit but is still potentially quite dangerous in that he has a network of criminal friends and is liable to pull a knife. I can't prove it but the last time he was out some of my kid's garden furniture and a sandpit table got knicked and I am fairly certain this fucker was the perp.
I was going to go around and confront him about the bifta ends but one of them was quite big so I just smoked it instead.
― xelab, Thursday, 6 August 2015 21:09 (eight years ago) link
I hope this doesn't restart my smoking habit, but this is some strong shit. Probably a shameful admission to make but fuck I haven't been stoned for years.

for the second time in my life i live above a guy who does loud religious singing a few times a day. for the second time in my life he's also a domestic abuser. go religion.
he sometimes comes up to tell us to "stop the heavy walking, i have a £5,000 chandelier and it's shaking from the way you guys walk" - i've tried, more for my own amusement than anything else, to introduce a sliver of self-awareness into his dire world by saying "the walls and ceilings are quite thin here, i can imagine that anyone making any noise would be extremely irritating for the entire apartment block" or "yes, we all have to consider how much unnecessary noise we make, or the strange habits we have which bother others" and he just reacts as if he's thinking "yes i'm glad you agree you are noisy". ultimately i've decided he's a fucking dick.

I have some very annoying + dodgy neighbours, but nobody that intrusive and unreasonable. I think I would probably lose my self control in a situation like that, and it would degenerate into empty threats yelling and much innocuous shoving with no real follow up in no time!

yeah it is testing, sometimes i genuinely want to just tell him to go fuck himself, i'm not intimidated by him in the slightest, but i know that peace is important. he hasn't been around in a little while so i'm hoping he might have stopped. one morning last year he had a screaming argument with his brother, who was on the street outside roaring up "you're a fucking pussy, i'll fuck you in the ass you fucking pussy, come down here and i'll fuck you in the ass. you beat your wife, you insult my wife, you're a fucking coward, i'll fuck you in the ass, get down here."
i was fairly tempted to give the brother my key and let him at it.

I find it quite comforting when my neighbour invites her despicable, beyond the pale sociopath male sibling around and every time he turns a happy social situation like a bbq or a pool party into a shitfest with much shouting and threats of violence, 8-way recriminations etc. I was just lying on the trampoline with a bottle of red and laughing my head off at some of the dialogue tonight. I don't mean it in a judgemental way, because I do actually have an affection for these ppl. And they do a sterling job of pissing off the same evil neighbours I can't stand. you do get these people on council estates with delusions of middle classiness, who are some of the real worst people amongst humanity in the uk right now IMHO

My neighbour has this Del-boy type business plan to find a cheap way of undercutting the people that install outdoor pools in peoples gardens. He invited me round to inspect his crudely nailed together crates on a badly mixed concrete base that is totally on the piss. I like his style though, but didn't have the heart to tell him how many holes there are in his plan. But I'm the smug twat who once 2nd fixed the spur on a £120 grand, granite font in an Anglican monastic church, so obv I know everything!
― calzino, Wednesday, 13 June 2018 21:22 (six years ago) link
He also has this partner in crime who swears every second word but still admonishes other people for swearing in front of his young daughter and said "if you fucking know anyone interested in having a garden pool, then fucking recommend us, man"
