swedishcelt 0 #1 November 3, 2006 In a regular condo, is it okay??? I mean, would you bitch about it if it was on a weekday? They are so fn loud it's like a frat. party up there or something... they do this other days too, not just Thursdays... I want to complain to my landlord but need to do a bitchitude check... on the bitchometer scale... if asking them nicely doesn't phase them... [they sort of threatened me a little last time] would you ignore it or say something... I get up at 5am and it's an EXPENSIVE condo... I don't want to be a buzzkill but they are just WILD up there and I am so tired. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #2 November 3, 2006 I'd say anything after 11 on a weeknight is grounds for bitchiness. And earplugs. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

swedishcelt 0 #4 November 3, 2006 Yeah. I worked, walked ten miles and wrote a paper. I should be able to sleep through anything at this point. Not them... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karenmeal 0 #7 November 3, 2006 I would complain to the landlord. Or call the cops and file a noise complaint. I wouldn't worry about being a bitch, especially if they threatened you.

AggieDave 6 #8 November 3, 2006 QuoteWhy dont you just dial the police station direct im sure the 911 people have more important things to do Quite a few departments have a different number to their 911-Dispatch then the front desk at a department. The non-emergancy number is listed in the phone book for your given city. Look it up and post it on the fridge (or where ever). 911 is for serious priority 1 calls. Calls other then that tie up a 911-call taker while they try to transfer your call to another dispatcher at the desk. You would be amazed at what people call 911 for, though.

yamtx73 0 #10 November 3, 2006 Anytime during the week when it's noisy after 9 PM it's time to call the police and file a complaint, also let the landlord know about the situation... defnitely NOT being bitchy....The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

happythoughts 0 #11 November 3, 2006 Tomorrow, a little ring when you wake up at 5am. Then, maybe "Somewhere over the Rainbow" while getting dressed. Around 9, "Hello, do you know what time it is? Oh? Didn't think so. Last night at 3am, you didn't seem to know either." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #12 November 3, 2006 There are ways around this. First, you've got neighbors, and odds are there are more of you than them. It's time to teach a few manners. Another thing you can do what I did in college - I woke up at 3 a.m. every day - it was my study time. I had neighbors once who liked to keep the music on late. It's amazing that walls actually act like speakers if you put a stereo on a cardboard box and tape it to the wall. A little of that at 3:00 a.m. usually leads to them complaining. It's countered with a deal that you won't blast yours early if they keep thirs down' after 9:00. Finally, police are your friends. There is nothing bitchy about simply wanting to not be disturbed. Screw them. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mangledspoon 0 #13 November 3, 2006 If they do it once or twice every now and then, then I'd say it's not that big of a deal... but if it's on a regular basis and you've already spoken to them, I'd definitely complain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frenchy68 0 #16 November 3, 2006 I agree with Peej. Anything past 11AM is not acceptable. How is one expected to recover from a night of bashing and partying?

ryoder 1,384 #17 November 3, 2006 I had a moron move in next door, (we shared a common wall), and proceed to keep cranking his stereo up to the point my dishes were rattling in the cabinets. Every time he did this I would be knocking on his door telling him to turn it down. Then one day, (about two weeks after his arrival), instead of answering the door, he just screamed "FUCK YOU!" through the closed door. So I called the police. He was evicted within days.

swedishcelt 0 #19 November 3, 2006 I do always wait until 11 anyways...I don't usually get irritated about it before then and I wouldn't say anything on a weekend. During the week though I can't sleep through it. I can put headphones on or something before 11. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VanillaSkyGirl 6 #20 November 4, 2006 QuoteConsider yourself lucky you don't live right next to my place... Week ends are best spend resting from the weekday partying. Hahaha...weekday partying rocks my socks, too. I miss those nights with you, G and whomever at the Otheroom and dancing at Zanzibar! However, we always partied at bars/clubs, then winded it down before heading back to the apt. Bethany, I agree that it's extremely rude for the neighbors to party in their apt. loudly on a week night after 11pm. My ex had neighbors who moved in towards the end, who were loud on week nights when they'd return from the bars. (They didn't live there long, thankfully.) It drove me nuts, but he used to sleep through it all. There were so many times that I wanted to throw open the door and bitchslap each one of them into oblivion. Of course, I always kept my composure. Plus, I wasn't the one who paid rent there. It was my ex, who technically lived there. Good luck, Bethany, and at least, you get to be away from that next weekend! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites swedishcelt 0 #21 November 4, 2006 I'm okay with parties, I just need my sleep during the week. I guess I was a grump last night.
