the man makes a good point.

i can relate, my downstairs neighbors are two college girls that just moved in a few months back, and they constantly blast crap techno until the wee hours of the morning. well, i put an end to that, i just put my king tubby collection on with the speakers pointed face down on the floor and cranked it.

they came up and complained that pictures were falling off the wall and i told them that for the past few weeks i have tolerated their crap music, now every time i hear there techno blasting through the floors, they'll know what to expect.

things have been pretty good ever since.

hahaha, I live in a duplex and my neighbor pounds on the wall when my amp is too loud. I responded by knocking on his door and asking when a good time was to play where it wouldn't bother him. He gave me his work schedule, he works evenings.. so he doesn't hate me anymore. Altho a couple of times I was having my card party and he came and knocked on the door and demanded I shut off the music, pshaw. He said he had to work. I told him I'd turn it down but I wouldn't shut it down. Then he suggested I take the subwoofer off the floor and I did and he doesn't hate me anymore.

Compromise people.. compromise.

i find if you answer the door in the scud with a pair of tights over your head they very rarely bother you again.

I love the picture in that article. It looks like a promotional shot from some sitcom: Mum, Dad, the 2 kids and Kevin Shields - one big happy family.

I used to live in a flat where the neighbours could hear you blowing your nose. And they'd complain too. That's partly London where you can't get away from anyone.

Now I live in the middle of nowhere and can have whatever music I choose blaring out at whatever volume I choose at any time I choose. Comets on Fire at with the front door open at 1 a.m. at eyeball vibrating volume can take place without a second thought. Bliss (of a kind).

Oi!

How the f*ck did D.H. Lawrence know what a dying animal did or did not feel?

What was he, some sort of psychic Dr Doolittle oblivious to the agonies of other animals? A kind of pre-Mengele experimenting snuffing out furry and winged creatures to his own cool and detached judgements?

C*nt.

aw man, that does sound like bliss. the worst has got to be hearing violence through the walls. i used to live below a woman who i once over-heard screaming (at her three year old child) ''you stupid f***ing c*nt, you just dropped the baby!'' serious. :(

that is harsh, just not what you need (or really, the baby!). I lived next door to a right pigging family couple years back - the 8yr old lad would sit at the top of his stairs, and if his mum tried to get past he'd scream at the top of his lungs 'get out my f*cking way or i'm goin' to cut your throat and p*ss down your neck'. Ok, ok, it was kinda amusing at first, but got tedious soon after!!
