Re: You know what really grinds my gears?
See that's the thing though, it never is just every once and awhile. Especially here. It's a 2-3 time a week deal and being told to quiet down just isn't enough because they are entitled rich kids that think because their parents pay the rent and not them, that they can do as they please. The neighbors on one side of me have had people over, and I've barely heard a thing out of them once. It's because they know how to control the volume of their music and voice. It's a nice talent to have. Guess many aren't born with it.
Last time I had a loud neighbor, the property manager said the kid got smart with her despite complaints from 3 of his neighbors, and he tried to deny he ever had music loud/had a party. She had to call his parents because they guaranteed his lease and the lease says she can evict you with enough cause, which multiple complaints from multiple neighbors is all it takes. They never do it, though, but it gets the point across. I only heard him loud one time after that.
We're adults here; you shouldn't have to have your parents tell you to STFU when you're 20 somethin' years old.
When I lived in Akron, I had a loud *** neighbor upstairs. He was some 35 year old loser. For most of the time I lived there he worked 3-11 so I never really heard a thing. He got fired and I guess he figured that since he was home alone most of the day, he could just start being loud whenever he wanted. He must have known the landlord some how because she let him get away with everything. She always said he was the sweetest guy, but nearly every night for the last 6 months I was there, he'd have his stereo and TV up from about 7 pm to 2 am. I could hear what he was watching in his living room through the floor in my bedroom. They were on the opposite side of the building. At least in summer I could run the A/C and a fan and use earplugs to mute it, but couldn't do that in winter. I should have just called the cops on him, but cops in Akron had more important things to deal with. Where I live now, they only ever have to deal with college kids.
