So I have new neighbours

jbj

Poor old Geordie's array...
An elderly couple moved in last week after a quick sale.

I've met the guy but not the woman.

Seemed pleasant enough until about 20 seconds ago they started screaming at each other.

I didn't catch the nouns or verbs but there was a lot of swearing involved :shrug:

Looks like I've been dethroned as the scummiest resident on the block.
 
I used to have neighbors who were constantly banging on the wall at night. For a while I thought they were putting furniture together or hanging up pictures. Eventually I realized they were fighting and he would grab her head and bang it into the wall. One call to 911 solved that problem.

Get them good and liquored up until they pass out and then ransack their place for valuables. Old people always have some good shit lying around.

Their grandkids are over just about every day running around wild and screaming. We've been away a lot sorting wedding stuff but the neighbours on the other side have said it's relentless.

The missus has a tone of voice that not only travels but goes right through you

They listen to the tv or radio STUPID loud

and....

I was out the back doing some tidying today and my decent neighbours were out back working on their garden:

"Just to give you a heads up Jim, she was shouting over the fence today asking us if your hot tub was always that loud because she could hear it last night."

:embarrassed:

I've used that thing almost every night for 2 years with no complaints and I ain't going to start taking them now - it's never on after 10pm and I only play music at the weekends and even then it's very rare so they can go and take a flying fuck to themselves if they think I'm going to stop or cut down my use.

They're out the back just now, I might go out for an hour before heading out for the football later on :embarrassed:
 
I would have the perfect solution. I would put my PA speakers on the patio and crank them.

If the knocked on the door (or dared to call the cops) I would say "I'm sorry... was my music disturbing your domestic violence? I just turned it up until I couldn't hear you two any more.... and that took a little bit."

No reason they should monopolize keeping the neighborhood awake.

I own over 10,000 watts of PA and speakers. Nobody without a jet engine would win that volume war. :helper:
 
Two years ago we had some new neighbors move in....with teenage boys. They are up every night until past midnight playing basketball and making a general ruckus (during the summer months).
Last spring they were out in front of my house hitting baseballs at it.
I had to go out twice...once I asked nicely for them to take the game somewhere else....the second time I wasn't nice at all
 
Apparently they (well I say they, he is pretty timid, it's clearly her calling the shots) are still bitching and moaning to the neighbours - loudly and obnoxiously, about us being a nuisance whilst trying to wreck our wonky (it's not wonky it's just set in squint) boundary fence.

I was out back in the hot tub there enjoying a bottle of wine and a smoke - no bubbles, no tunes, nothing, because it is late and I'm not an animal.

They've got the telly or radio blaring from their room, I coughed and the next thing I hear is their curtains being pulled back and as I gaze up I see the shady outline of either Gozer Gozerian or this dudes mad batshit wife peering down at me from their bedroom window.

I won't say I'm an OGG like character :embarrassed: but I don't do passive aggressive very well and I bought this place off the back of my toil in Saudi Arabia so it very much is my castle - I don't think he'll say shit but I can see things getting fruity between me and his mad wife

Who sounds like Elmo with a 60 a day habit as it sounds. I've been thinking all week - she sounds like someone - and as I heard her squawking over whatever they're watching on TV it hit me - Stop Out Elmo.
