Random Sucky Neighbor Thoughts

[Food Lady]

I do not care what time it is. There is NO REASON to be sitting there revving your engine for 15 minutes. I'm sick and tired of you people with your compensation truck nonsense! No. one. cares. No one is impressed. Inconsiderate behavior is not attractive.

some people can't be alone with their thoughts.

So much truth here . . .

I don't know if they even notice how loud the music is after a while? Growing up my house was wayyyy back from the street. Like, from my house you walked a bit, then you got to the driveway, then you drove out to a little dirt road, then you drove on that until you got to the street. Sometimes we could STILL HEAR stereo bass in our house. Just think about how loud that had to be. And this was out in the boonies, so it wasn't like other people were closer and could be impressed by this stupid stereo. I just think some people can't be alone with their thoughts.

At my old apartment some of my neighbors couldn't even walk from their car to their apartment (a 30 second walk at most) without their awful cell phone speakers blasting.

Speaking of 9:30, I have this the dude outside right now: not everyone goes to bed before 10:00 but I can guarantee no one but you cares about that stereo in your car. We're not impressed that you wasted your money on it and it's not cold enough that you have to run your engine a half hour to warm it up. I really don't know who you're trying to impress.

It is nine thirty, why is your small child outside screaming hyperactively?!

Did your friend’s neighbour tune drunk? Because my neighbour tunes drunk. The vehicles probably wouldn’t need tuning so often if he didn’t.

And you’re more creative than me, all my swear words were coming out starting with f last night.

At the ass-crack of dawn? I hope they weren't drunk. By about 9am they would stop and drive off. Damn. I should have called the police on them as a suspected drunk driver.

The creative swearing comes from going to an all girls catholic high school, having a friend in the air force cadets, reading non-age appropriate books and then having a younger brother that started his carpentry apprenticeship at the age of 15 (with the required trade school time). I love new cuss and swear words.

I have out sworn (out sweared?) a couple of drunk sailors from Lizzie's navy on my first trip to Belfast. I really hope that at least one of their friends were sober enough to remind them of it the next day. I really, really hope they remembered how adorable they looked blushing when I dropped a long string of words that ended with cunt. And, no, I didn't pay for any drinks for the rest of the night.

Why do you insist on revving that engine every. half. hour?

Little Dick Syndrome, or LDS. Down the street from my mom is a guy who "works on" motorcycles and shitbox economy cars. Trust me buddy, that Honda Civic you spent hours fixing up will still lose to my 1959 Radio-Flyer "station wagon" at the lights Anyway, nearly every summer weekend, my mom and I will be having some wine out on her patio. Without fail, he'll start one of those things up, and will redline it. I can understand starting it up, gradually increasing the RPMs, but this goes far past it. Vroom vroom vroooooooom for a few minutes before he shuts it off. 10 minutes later, he does it again, and again. At least he did until last summer. As usual, we're out on the patio, one of those contraptions starts revving its nuts off...followed by the usual "it's going to pop" smell (if you've ever had an engine about to fail, you know what I mean), a loud expensive bang, and then a lot of cursing. Seems he was messing with his motorcycle, and blew up the engine

asshat bogan neighbours with their loud 4WD and new shiny loud motorbike and their 9pm drunk tuning sessions in the driveway and their inability to go anywhere without a 15 minute chat in the driveway with their vehicle of choice idling and their stinky exhaust fumes everywhere

Is it bad that I can very easily fill in those blanks with some very good Aussie swear words? There should be a few 'f's and a few 'c's and maybe a few 'b f's.

I feel you on the neighbours revving the shit out of their vehicles. I used to crash at a friend's place after big Saturday nights. Their neighbour was a morning person. At the ass-crack of dawn they would start and 'work' on (read 'rev the shit out of') their boat, bike or 'my dick is so small so I have to compensate' ute. Even with all the doors and windows closed, the house would fill with fumes. Repeated calls to EPA, police, landlord and council got no where, so my friend broke their lease after just 4 months.

Why do you insist on revving that engine every. half. hour?? 10:30, 11:00, 11:30, midnight! I'm so sick of all of you.

A couple of miles from my home there is a business that builds race engines and race car chassis. When they test the engines they're supposed use a huge muffler contraption (it's the same size as a 5000 gallon tank.) It's not unusual to hear those engines running wide open when their dyno-testing. Very very loud and my neighbors complain about my tractors that are much more quiet.
I used to have a neighbor that rebuilt aircraft engines, those are even louder and he didn't use any kind of mufflers.
Good luck with your neighbors.

It's 2 AM and the reason your key isn't working in the lock is because you're at the wrong unit. x_x It's creepy, go away.

Also... this isn't so much sucky as wow? What did you guys down the hall DO that got the police to break down your door? That fancy lock you had on it seems suspicious now. Note: They were very quiet.

Who has a loud conversation in the bathroom at 1:00 in the morning??

It's rude no matter what time of day.
