When you're totally hammered you don't exactly wake up from a one man army named Testicles.


ooooooooooooooooh, its on now.


Call your neighbors, tell them to forget their vacations, that this is a life and death situation.

Tell them that they set the house on fire. should work.

that's just the by far best solution.. much better than being one of those gay lamers trying to ruin the party, someone who is drunk doesn't care about the opinion of one of those gay lamers anyway so it makes no difference how entitled you are to being a gay lamer, it's completely fruitless. (actually generally it helps for a period ranging between 1 and 5 minutes. )


I don't see how a person trying to ask partiers to take the party inside at a time when most people are trying to sleep is a "gay lamer". Sure, parties are fun and it sucks when other neighbors get in the way of that fun, but the right to party is no higher up the priority list than the right to comfortably enjoy your own home. The fact that a partier may be too drunk to notice your complaints has no bearing on whether those complaints should be made either. It just justifies taking greater measures (i.e. calling the cops) to take care of the problem.

It's worth noting that it's the partiers who are imposing themselves upon their neighbors, not the other way around. They are the ones intruding upon their neighbors' property and their enjoyment of it, the complaining neighbor is just attempting to stop that intrusion. If a guy is throwing rocks at your house, are you a "gay lamer" for telling him to stop? Sure, there's a difference between rocks and noise, but is there really a clear line? What if the rocks aren't breaking anything but just hit the wall and keep waking you up when you're trying to sleep? Isn't that almost exactly the same as what those partiers were doing to Testie and his neighbors?

I'm as much a fan of a good house party as the next person, but I also realize that you can't ignore other people just to have your own fun. Much like you respect the host of a party by not destroying their place, you respect the people who live next door by not doing anything that causes them trouble. Both are doing something nice and unnecessary by allowing you to impose upon their hospitality, the least you can do is be considerate and respectful (particularly if what they're asking for doesn't stop your party).


the analogy with throwing rocks is so far off man.. a party is held for your own amusement and entertainment, throwing rocks at your house would be done with the intention of pissing you off.. not to mention that telling partygoers to shut up and be quiet is only more likely to make them well, throw rocks at you.. im looking at this from a practical point of view, not a moral one though : telling them to shut up is not going to make them shut up, or if it does, they'll forget they were supposed to shut up shortly after. they're also going to consider you a gay lamer, regardless of whether you actually are one. you're only going to make their party less fun and your night less sleepy through going out and telling them to shut up, whereas if you simply get one of those things you put in your ears to make the noise goes around nobody is angry, nobody is branded a gay lamer and nobody gets his sleep ruined.

You're missing the point, I shouldn't be awake to begin with.
They imposed on the neighbours.

I've have parties that have gone on til 4 or 5 am plenty of times. But you don't go outside, that's just flat out dick. If your neighbors are decent enough to let you party and do whatever, the least you can do is keep it inside after 11-12. How anyone could possibly argue that is beyond me.

I have a shithead neighbor at my shorehouse who's called the cops on me for having FOUR people partying in the middle of the day. He gets zero respect because he either curses me out for nothing or calls the cops.

The other neighbors are all very nice. They know I party and don't care, so long as I'm not running around being a shitbag outside at 3 am. If they ever have a problem, they approach me the next day (or call me ) and tell me I'm getting to rowdy.

I'd say try that, but since these kids are dicks, your only option at this point seems to retaliate.

wait wait wait. lets simplify this?

Why should I be forced to stay up all night when I have work early the next morning? How does forcing them to stop keeping my make me a lamer?

I should risk getting fired because they refuse to grow up?

If it's just a party on one day I'd agree with you - sure thing. But if they really do it for weeks (as in the whole summer vacation that they spend there) you can't really ignore it if you have to work. Even if you don't...

Just call the cops. If these guys are as smart as you say they are, they are likely to mouth off to an officer and get themselves in real hot water. If your neighbors are as fed up as you are, band together and start calling the cops even when they are quiet. If you both are saying that you were hearing "loud music", who are the cops going to beleive? I know its a waste of the cops time, but its better than the cops having to come out because you went over and killed one of them

pfff, Call the cops!?!? - Everyone can do that! That is so uncreative and has no style, what so ever!
I suggest that you go the pharmacy and buy some diarrhea drugs. If these guys has been up all night totally pissed, you can easily sneak into the house unnoticed and add some drugs into their food or what ever you can find in the house.
Calling the cops = NO FUN
Five guys fighting over a toilet, while ten others are shiting all over the floor = FUN

Wtf Eri...

If they're being a pain in the ass all summer, fuck them. Have you ever had a job that you have to get up for really in the morning every day? It fucking sucks if you've had no sleep because some hippy loser layabouts want to have some fun.

It's ok if they want to have a party, but do it in a manner that is considerate to other people and not keeping the whole neighbourhood awake all night.

You shouldn't have to put in earblockers (which don't work great anyway), they should be more considerate of other people and shut the fuck up. If they want to party all night they go to a club or bar like normal people do.

hey im not really defending those people im saying that telling them to shut the fuck up is unlikely to work

calling the cops can work i guess but that really does seem very anal

best solution is avoiding the problem imo. just cause they're imposing on you and you're not imposing on them doesn't mean that imposing back on them is gonna solve anything better than allowing them to impose would.

I knew it wouldn't work.
But I was tired of being woken up. And it had worked previously to get them inside and to stfu.
Your earlier statements defended them, telling me to let them party and to man up.
