Oh, probably more than once. My kid threatened me one time, he said "if the cops come I'm telling them it's you." It was during the day though. I had a bad ass stereo back then. When my kids were fairly young I could keep them outside with the stereo but we didn't have close neighbors back then.
Never. I'm a rather quiet person most of the time.
Two years ago, I re-roofed my house. I played music while I worked which contains a lot of disdain for religions and governments. I know at least two of my neighbors called the cops regarding this as their children ratted them out, but I never got a visit. Apparently, I didn't do anything wrong.
Yes, as a matter of fact. I roomed with a guy who was so proud of having a monster stereo system. One day while he was at work I put on Tower of Power and set the volume to where it sounded as if they were playing in the apartment. It was live, sweet, and so exciting. I loved it. The neighbors, however, didn't. It was memorable though, even to this day, some forty years ago, it brings a smile to my face.
There is a good reason I will always own a property with room. While I am in an apartment today, My house on an acre in Texas just closed 2/28 and my new 2.5 acre place in New Jersey closes 3/29.
I make noise.
I think my neighbors were more amused,,,as I have middle age guys living in the houses to my left and right,,with about 15-20 feet between our houses. Evidently, it happened on nights when I had gentlemen friends in, the windows were partially open, and I'm pretty noisy...you get my drift. Other than that, I'm a quiet neighbor.
Boy have I ever. Band practice.
YES!!!! He he....
What about complaining about them not taking responsibilities for their pets actions and barking noise?
I reported my current neighbors for leaving their puppy in a kennnel all day, just barking and crying nonstop. Also the apartment has a no large pet policy.
Only in bed....well, first thing in the morning...ok I was sobbing
No, I am the one who gets pissed off, especially at football season.
Not in the last 5 or 10 years, or possibly longer. I think my neighbors aren't even sure I'm here.
A year ago, some new Thai tenant in the apartment next to mine complained to the apartment building management that I was disturbing the peace.
I asked how, and he said my door hinges were making too much noise in the morning when I left for work.
The tenant moved a couple of months later, but it's rare that Thai people complain about anything. Since we're so close to the Malaysia border, he could have been influenced by that culture.
Not normally, we do have lots of social evening, no loud music, we are geeks. But early in the evening we are ooutdoors and soem of the guys, including my son talk loud when drinking. In summer teh pool area is noisy. But after a bit we adjourn inside, the centre toom is large and has no external walls so is very soundproof. A neighbour did complain when we had our housewarming 5 years back, but the rest said they heard nothing. And once or twice there have been comments about ummmmmm, loud affection. (not me).
4th of July fireworks...yes. Visually pissed off...years ago my Obama sign was stolen the first day and last election my Bernie sign was run over or trampled many times. heh heh
When I was in my late teens, I shared a house with two friends. When we moved in, we asked the guy who owned the house if we could redecorate it and he said yes - and we spent a year making it look fantastic only for him to give us a month's notice to vacate the property, no doubt because he realised he could now rent it out for a lot more. So we decided that we were going to piss off the entire neighbourhood for a month, and got some friends who owned a very loud soundsystem to come and set it up in the house, then had stupendously noisy parties almost every night of the week for the whole month. On our final day there, the next door neighbours popped round to say goodbye and told us we were the best neighbours they'd ever had.
(We also bought a load of shrimp and hid them in various hard-to-find places around the house - he's probably still searching for all the sources of the stink now )
