I need advice on how to retaliate against partying, obnoxious, young neighbors.

really? Nothing guys?

throw your own loud party.

I'd move....

My apartment building is very quiet.

oops wrong thread, ignore the previous post. Sorry, it might be a bit over the edge, just a bit anyways.

If you're moving -- and want to fuck with them -- just call the cops and say you are a concerned resident in the building and that you can smell marijuana (be sure to say "marijuana" instead of pot/weed/herb -- this will make you look like a square to the cops and they won't fuck with you).

Wait until around 1am local time -- this will interrupt their party at the most inopportune time.

OK...yeah, I see your moving

10 of your GLP friends, go over and join the party, they will clear out

Pull the fire alarm.

dig a giant pit, just outside the door, cover it with a rug, and knock on the door, wait until they come out and fall in the hole, then cover it back up and ring the door bell again.

That's awesome. Although I'd like to avoid prison :) The best I can think of is disabling the elevator so they have to walk their drunk asses down 8 flts of stairs.

Call the cops

Play the bagpipes really loud tomorrow morning, starting at oh 4:30 and enjoy the sweet music while they nurse the hangover! :)

plant drugs, then call the cops, there are some cops that do this on their own, so you might just call them and ask them if they plant their own drugs, or if you need to plant some drugs before they get there.

Also -- I've always lived by this rule (passed down from my Grandfather)

If you choose to live in an apartment building/complex you have to expect to deal with other people's noise/conversations/domestic disputes/crying children/parties etc...

If you don't like it, rent/buy a home -- If you can't afford to rent/buy a private home, work harder in order to do so.

Renting comes with pros and cons, just be ready for the cons if you do decide to rent.

Nice! They actually are smoking the reefer in the hall & I get drug tested @ work so that pisses me off even more.

Yes, disable the elevator, and put petroleum jelly on the first few steps, that is good. That should work out fine.

Ok, who's in KC?

Bucket their door some night.

Assuming the door opens inward into their home, this is what you do.

1 Buy a large bucket and some large mouthed containers which can be sealed.

2.1 Collect your urine in sealed containers until you have enough to fill the bucket 2/3rds of the way.

2.2 Collect dog shit and allow for it to ferment with your urine in the sealed containers.

3. Practice angling the bucket with plain water in it against a door.

4. When you have enough urine/shit mash, fill you bucket someplace after you have left your home for sometime. It might be best if your neighbors know/think you have not been around for a few hours.

5. Angle it against your neighbor's door when you know that they are home.

6. Ring doorbell and exit the area.

Call the police

But, park your car down the block, so they can't key it because they're pissed off at you, for calling the police.

You didn't say you wanted to avoid prison, you know, you should really be more specific next time.

Grab acouple of the fire extinguishers around the building. Pull the pins, knock on the door really fuckin hard. Once it opens release the big dogs into the room.

A proven method would be to connect a Baseball Bat to their kneecaps. ( use a swinging motion)

Go join the party for a few minutes...

With liquid ex-lax.

Superglue all available bathroom doors and exits.

Wait.

i lived in an apt on the 3rd floor and i was not more than 50 feet away from the next apt building which happens to have outside balconies;

of course the window were open and maybe 75 or so 'Friends/How I Met Your Mother' types; and much of it had spread out to the balcony-it wasnt so much the music-but that the place was PACKED and all the laughing buzz and chatter really spilled out it was a weeknight-but hell they never had done it before so i let it slide; Past 10p, (the legal time) then 12M-by 3.00am it was still going strong so i called the cops-the cops came and shut them down;

after it was all over i heard the female tenant sobbing "OMG! My party was ruined!"


ive lived in apts were the walls are SO non soundproof, that you could almost smell the farts of the people next door

I love it!

This.

I've had a mind to do this ever since I had obnoxiously loud neighbors, but never did it because of my worry that I'd get kicked out.

Go outside and water your plants. Get my drift? If you manage to "accidentally" get one of them wet, well it was obviously an accident right? I've gone out a few nights, when I had the neighbors from living hell living next to me for a couple of
months, partying like it was 1999......, and I started watering. Ok, I think they get it, just the fact that a neighbor is standing there next to them, watering the plants at 11:00 p.m. gives them a huge WTF moment. I think they get it, because every time I've gone out there to do that when They've been having a party, the party stopped no less than 15 minutes later.

But I'll tell you what, when I'm standing there with the hose, and the music is blairing, and the teenagers are throwing up over the side rail because they have no fucking clue how to hold their alcohol, ......the thought of just letting that hose rip loose just sends a "justice served" giggle down my spine like you would not believe.

So sadly, I've never directly used it on another person, but I'll tell you what, if they decide to be obnoxious again, best be assured they're gonna get the hose.

If you don't have a hose, get one. If you don't have a hose extension.....get one.

Fight fire....with water.....

The legal way to get something done about it would be to start making documented complaints to the management. Include specifics and be sure to mention that they're violating your RIGHTS TO QUIET ENJOYMENT as a tenant. Everyone has these rights, whether you live in a house or apartment. Declare the apartment and it's goings on as a public nuisance, one that is interfering with your sleep, and therefore your work and ability to pay your rent. It would also help to speak with other tenants about the issue, perhaps they would complain also. Make sure the management keeps good confidentiality about who is doing the complaining, you don't want a window busted out in your vehicle.

In addition, you can also call the police about it, and give a statement. More than likely there's underage drinking or drugs involved.

To be funny, I would walk by with a trash bag in hand.. pretending to be taking out trash. Fill the bottom of the bag with cooking oil, or even better, motor oil. Slice the bottom of one side of it and hold it in a way that it doesn't leak out until you get where you want it. Then watch all the drunk people fall down all night. Oily shoe prints all over the carpet will probably piss off the host.. and might be persuaded to have the party elsewhere next time.

Yeah, these kids are early 20's, guy & girl, fighting all the time, 2 loud german shepherds that live in the apt with them & he's a bartender, she's a stripper. They moved in 2mos ago & after their 1st party I gave my landlord the legally obligated 60 day notice. I've tried to talk to them like adults & they've been assholes to my face: "Like, chill lady. It's fucking Saturday night. It's like international party night. Jeesus, chill grandma" (im 37). I'm a flight attendant & work a 6am flt every Sun morning, so I told them if they could just keep people INside their apt. He said "fuck you bitch!" Hence the anything goes...i don't care if they know it's me.

I feel old saying it, but why the hell is that generation so rude & self absorbed??
