hello friends

For the second night in a row, 10:30ish PM means blaring stereo and screaming matches and repeated door-slamming from downstairs, and blaring stereo from next door.

The ones next door, i.e. CH's pad, actually had their stereo cranked so loud at one point that it wasn't just the usual bass pounding the walls and rattling the windows. No, we could actually clearly hear the vocals of whatever was currently being blasted. You couldn't make them out, but you could hear them in every room of our apartment through the living room wall.

Naturally, when I slammed my fist as hard as I could on said wall, they responded by turning it up.

We pay 600 bucks a month for management to continue promising to do something about this, and never actually doing so. It's really sad.

I can't wait till we get out of here. Did you know I'm literally afraid to go outside of the apartment on my own these days? It's true. CH tried to sneak up behind mecha on the stairs once, who knows what she might decide to try on me someday.

[cilbuP] Owner of Chris's eyebrows, Jenny says, "So there's this guy a couple buildings over who lets his dog go out on his balcony... this being VERY against complex rules. The dog literally craps onto the patio of the people below, barking hysterically all the while. Thing is, the guy leaves his balcony door OPEN, so if you get near the dog runs back inside -- meaning that if we were to call the office and complain, when they came they would find no evidence whatsoever."
[cilbuP] Owner of Chris's eyebrows, Jenny says, "So mecha snuck out onto our balcony while it was barking... and got pictures and video of the dog out there."
[cilbuP] Owner of Chris's eyebrows, Jenny says, "pwned."

[cilbuP] Owner of Chris's eyebrows, Jenny says, "Mechamom and mecha were talking in hall outside, kids next door were coming up the stairs while they talked, mechamom mentioned to mecha that we should tell the office if people next door did the stereo thing again, kids went into apartment, apparently told their mom what mechamom had said... woman comes out of apartment, yells profanities at mechamom and threatens her."
[cilbuP] Owner of Chris's eyebrows, Jenny says, "Mechamom called the courtesy officer, he said to call the cops, so she called the cops and they're on their way over. Supposedly this will get neighbors evicted!"

Dear neighbors:

If I am literally a foot away from being as far from your side of the building as I can be, and I can still feel your audibly blaring bass through my chair, that is a sign that you need to TURN IT THE FUCK DOWN.

Hate,

me.
