Before I start, yeah, I'd LOVE to move out of suburbia and out in the middle-of-nowhere so that my closest neighbors are 10+ acres away, but I just can't afford to move to the mtn's and I have no desire to live out on the prairies.
I have these neighbors who live behind me and one house over.
They have a hottub in their backyard sitting right next to a nice picture window where they can watch their television through the window while in the hottub. Since sound won't travel as well through the window/walls, they've mounted loud speakers to the outside of their home so they don't miss a thing (and neither will any neighbor within a 5 home radius). The speakers are also linked to their stereo.
I've endured the explosions and car chases of the action movies they watch @ 1AM. I've listened to their blaring music @ 2AM, and I've listened to their sports games late into the evening/night (like tonight).
Tonight I decided I've had enough of their inconsideration for their neighbors and I called the police. This is just the start of the football season and I'm not going to go through another year of this cr@p. Of course, the game ended tonight and the police never showed - even though I told them that I was willing to sign an official complaint against these people. So once the trash went back into their home I called the police back and cancelled the call. But, the next time I hear them hootin' & hollerin' like a bunch of inbred hillbillies, I'll call again, and again, and again - each time until these people start abiding by some level of civility and showing some consideration for their neighbors. I'd just like to sit in my own home - with my windows closed without having MY television drowned out by these people.
