I Hate My Neighbor
My neighbor across the street calls the cops on us a bunch of times. My husband has a band & they practice in my living room twice a week. Yes it gets loud but we've been in the neighborhood 6 years longer than they have and nobody ever called the cops on us. My husband grew up just around the corner & they used to practice at his parent's house and nobody has ever gotten so cop-happy as these ones. We have an agreement with all the neighbors, including the ones in question, that we won't practice past 8pm. The local noise ordinance says 10pm. When anybody else has any problem they come to tell us or call and we're always cool. These ones across the street just calls the cops on us like we're a bunch of criminals. Last Sunday afternoon we had a practice and they called the cops on us again. Not only that, later on I found out from my mom-in-law (who still lives around the corner) that as she was pushing my baby nephew in his stroller for a walk the neighbor wife came out and yelled at her, telling her that it's a nice neighborhood & we ruined it, that it's Sunday & that it's a holy day & how they don't even let her kids watch TV on Sunday & we're playing music, blablabla. What, so the rest of us can't do **** on Sunday either? When other neighbors have backyard parties on the weekend with music we don't complain, and when it's our turn they leave us alone. Except for these morons. And we're not even the only band in the neighborhood. Never mind that their kids start screaming at 7 in the morning & they got 4 of them & they have a loud-*** parrot. Too bad they can't move since they bought the house when prices were way inflated and they can't sell it now for what they paid for it so they're stuck with us "heathens" for a while.
