Poll: what to do about noisy kids next door?

[thomas144]

My next-door-neighbors are away and have left their college freshman daughter alone in their house. Last night she had friends over. Very loud and annoying, kept me up with their laughter past midnight.

All these choices are things I contemplated doing.

I say, go over and party with them and show up tired for work tomorrow..........

I say if your going to put your life on the line in asking them to be quiet, You may as well go all out and just riddle the damn place with bullets.

There's nothing more intimidating than a 74 year old man in his boxers and a tank top standing out in the middle of his lawn shaking his fist and yelling at a bunch of rowdy teenagers.

They'll shut up for sure.

I'm glad you said "fist", I say you call them at 6 am and ask them to be quiet that night.

My parents have this exact. same. problem. While I'm here for the summer we have these dip****s next door that recently put in a new in-ground swimming pool. We have to keep the windows open lately because it is hot as balls out. BUT, we have to listen to these 15 year old assclowns scream all day over stupid games of water polo and ****.

Whenever my mom isn't around (shes old and doens't like me swearing) I yell the meanest obscenities at them and they are quiet for a good hour, before I have to reinforce the "shut the **** up rule", by yelling more obscenities. Calling the police is less fun. I like being a renegade and using my own unorthodox ways.

This is actually a mutliple choice poll. What I did finally is call their house phone and let it ring a bit. I don't know if that shut them up of if was just coincidence. Maybe I just managed to get to sleep finally.

Other - grab the kids, wet their lips and stick them to the wall

I would call the parents first. If you don't get results, call the cops.

I like the idea of calling at 6AM. There isn't a worse torture for a kid that age to be woken up after just a few hours of sleep. I also threw in calling the parents at midnight. Might as well make everyone miserable.

I don't know about Winchester, But it's been wicked hot in Lynn lattely, and with the noise the AC puts out, keeping us cool at night, its hard to hear anything.

I'd call the cops personally. Then play dumb and when the Parents get home, ask them why the cops were at their house in the middle of the night...

That doesn't work with 911, if the parents know any of the cops, all they have to do is ask who made the complaint and usually it leads to bad blood.

my neighbor is also a retired state trooper, so yes he knows all the cops. I also didn't think calling them on the beach in the middle of the night was a good thing to do.

if I had air conditioning, this wouldn't be a problem obviously. I'd like to be able to sleep with my bedroom windows open however.

how can it lead to bad blood? I am sure the parents are concerned about their neghiborhood image and would like to know if their daughter is suplanting that or not.

THe only Bad BLood I can see if between Daughter and Daddy.
