    Thumbs down Rant: Neighbors!

    Okay, this is my first time in a first-floor apartment. It sucks! These tubby ppl. live over me and everything they do is like, THUD THUD THUD! Today, they have tubby friends over with their tubby kids and it's like... omg! They've gotta be jumping around like crazy up there or something! It's so irritating! It's bad enough when they're alone! I can tell everything they're doing! I know they get up around 7-8 and their bedroom is right over mine. THe first thing they do in the morning is take a shower, then they stomp around their bedroom some more... have breakfast... and they're out to work before nine. Wakes me up EVERY FUCKING MORNING!

    Ugh, I'm about to play some loud stripper music or something! I mean, what am I gonna do? What would I say to them? Please stop walking around or lose some weight?! ::sigh:: This sucks.

    Whilst I may not be a total fan of the unit I am living within right now... at least it is top floor (only three levels, ground/garage level, first two units and then our unit and the unit next door).

    Unfortunately, this is the "joy" of living in a unit especially a ground floor unit. Nothing you can do about it really... you could stick an anonymous note in their mailbox asking them to loose weight... or drop "loose weight now" brochures etc in their mailbox or at their door ? Otherwise...yeh... just something you have to put up with.... or move.

    I used to live in a ground-floor apartment underneath a Mexican construction worker named Jose, who was completely unattractive but who had the most active sex life I've ever seen. Every night he was bringing a different girl home. Due to some interesting fluke, Jose's bed was positioned directly above mine, and it was a very squeaky one. All night long... squeak squeak squeak thump thump squeak squeak thumpthumpthumpthumpBAM. Then I would have to listen to them walk around, and the shower would come on, and I guess she would shower while he jerked off because the shower and the bed would go at the same time. And every morning after the girl left, Jose would jerk off some more. I would've given anything to excuse myself from the details of Jose's sex life.

    He also used to blast that awful Mexican music at top volume all day. One day I went up and asked him to please turn it down, and ten minutes later he came down to "introduce himself" (and no doubt involve me even further in his sexcapades). Fortunately my dad happened to be there and he hung out in the background looking menacing, and Jose and I didn't have any further conversations. I still had to hear him jerking off and walking around all the time though.

    Never again. I will NOT live on a ground-floor apartment anymore.

    Oh god. That sucks Bella. Neighbors are just a pain in the ass.

    Currently (in my second/top story shithole), I live with a prostitue behind my bedroom wall. That's what it must be. She moans like a broken record on a strange schedule. Constantly see different guys coming in the door (record being 8 in one day) and she works all hours. But the moaning is just awful. Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh ,uh ,ahhh, uh, uh, uh, uh.......................... I've never watched a porno that sounded as unconvincing.

    hardkandee, she must be a Japanese porno aficionado, they get the bloody loud noises going , like they are being killed. Only think I have heard worse than Japanese porno sounds, are Korean drama crying sounds. I accept that is their culture, but dam fingernails on a chalkboard to me. I’m sure I drive some of my Korean family/friends nuts as well.


    As just about everyone has said, live on the top floor if you can. Or do what we did; buy a house that only has one old neighbor. To one side is the train, that after a week you no longer hear, to the other side is a main road, you rarely hear, and to the non-neighbor side, is a field. Man I’m going to miss that! You can get in the back of the house, and never even hear a knock at the front door.

    If you go to Korea, never stay in a love hotel (the kind where couples go for a weekend tryst, or a noonie not the kinky kind with toys that charges by the minute.) You will hear the screaming passion, and other noises of kinky, and regular sex at all hours,


    I love the idea form GCG, grab some of the losing weight brochures (maybe even some dodgy ones), and make sure they get their junk mail! Just don’t get caught. Some pranks can be a release, but may have a backlash.

    oh if you want to play loud music, nothing beats spead metal, like Ramstein. I you know they don't like the soft stuff that can work as well. Problem is, you start the SH, there might be some IT to go with it.

    Why did I suddenly think of the Osbournes?

    Top floor in Airzona would suck, underground would be better.

    ^^^ Rammstein, TOTALLY. I used to share a dorm suite with two sorority girls - they were in one bedroom, I had another adjoining bedroom, and we shared an entry foyer and bathroom. Those girls used to bring their entire sorority over to sing along to Belinda Carlisle and the Spice Girls all fucking night, usually right before I had an early-morning exam. I eventually made the happy discovery that Rammstein and Marilyn Manson could make them disappear. Whenever they started up, I'd put in a CD, and by the end of "The Beautiful People" I would have peace and quiet all night long.

    Hope you have some Slayer and Rob Zombie to blast too. I had neighbors like that I used a broom on my ceiling when they were loud. Have some really loud sex or just make sex noises. That always freaks people out er unless they like that thing.
    Hahaha Osbournes...throw a spoiled ham over the patio. Wait they might eat it.
    Ive had crappy neighbors before and dude I know it blows. Better yet just leave the "get fit" brochures on their door step.

    I used to blast phantom of the opera. How can a neighbor complain? "Sorry Miss, your classical musicals are too loud."?

    ^^^

    Phantom is considered "Rock Opera" like Chess, Cats, and Rent.

    That fat man wailing in Italian would be classical opera.

    Or at least a note asking them to walk more softly. How can they deserve Rob Zombie when they don't even know they are annoying someone?

    Go ask them to watch over your apartment while you go to Africa to see elephants in their native habitat.

    I once lived in a duplex with thin walls, and although I kept my soft music at a VERY low volume (I could barely hear it), apparently it bothered the neighbors because the stereo was right next to the adjoining wall. I came home from work one day to find a note and a baggie of homemade chocolate chip cookies pinned to my front door. The note was asking me to kindly turn the volume of my music down because it made it difficult for them to hear the TV. I moved the stereo to the other room (away from the adjoining wall) and turned it up a tad louder. They said that was fine, didn't go through the walls anymore.

    Point: The nice note and cookies left a sweet taste in my mouth, for which I was happy to make efforts to accommodate their request. Maybe something similar would encourage them to step a bit more lightly while walking around their apartment. We currently live on the top floor in our new apt and we are both conscious of the fact we're walking on someone's ceiling, so we try to avoid tromping around when we walk.

    It could just be the floor, or they're just heavy walkers. I have a couple friends who sound like elephants in the house, even though they're thin. Annoying, but hey.

    As for the stereo, hell, it doesn't even have to be a loud anything. Just make sure it has a bass line and turn the bass up. They'll hear it. I can hear my bass more clearly in my bedroom than when I'm standing right next to the subwoofer. That low sound travels really well!

    Bridgette, glad to see a neighbour knows about attracting with honey rather than vinegar.

    Just hope they were nice cookies.

    Some ways can be more 'fun'

    You can figure I had bad neighbours once, as I moved to a house that has pretty much none.

    Hahaha. One of the 1st apts. I had, was a ground floor. When I 1st moved in, the ceiling had some curious dents on it. Hmm. Turns out the middle-aged couple upstairs, aside from being moderately heavy weights, were HEAVY hitting drinkers. Some of their activities: moving furniture in the middle of the night, passing out cold from a standing position to fall dead hard on the floor, having raging parties on any given week night, & fist fights. The dents in my apt. ceiling? From a former tenant who kept pounding w/a broomstick (which I did as well). I vaccummed around 9am on Saturdays, & they had a major fit. They had a van, & a curious hole appeared in the brick bldg wall (next to my bedroom) where they tried to "park", although it was never proven. Apt. bldgs. seem to have notoriously thin walls & floors. Although I live in a trailer park, at least I have no upper/lower fellow tennants. Sorry to hear about your situaton, & I don't see anything you can really do/say except move when you can.

    1 word. Seplutura. Nothing says, "Shut the fuck up, Fatty," like Brazilian Death Metal. They may actually have a song...titled "Shut the Fuck Up!" I can't recall if it them or another..


    Of course there is the direct approach... Climb upstairs....Gol knockety knock on the door and say...Excuse me.... but our ceiling/floor is very thin and I can hear you stomping around. I work nights and you often wake me up very early in the morning banging the floor... Could you please, please, pretty please eith learn to walk more quietly or lose about 300lbs???? Thanks.


    in either case....

    Good Luck.
