People and their loud music
Just a quick rant. I don't know why people think they have the right to blast their stereos at night in an apartment complex. Usually, when I ask nicely, people do turn it down. But last night, I had no luck. The guy just acted like I must be brain dead to think he'd turn down his music. Some people do need sleep. I don't know about him.
On a related note, how about those people with their headphones so loud you can hear it all the way across the length of a subway car? Aren't they deaf? Well, maybe they are and that's why they play it so loud.
I'm writing this because it's the next day and someone else is blaring their music. Maybe I sound like a curmudgeon (great word). But I have so many neighbors who do this that there's almost always at least one of them doing it, so it's never quiet. Sometimes it's even people two floors away.
In an older complex with thin wood floors, I'd sort of expect this. But this building was completed in 2005, and has rather thick walls and heavy concrete floors. I often hear one of our neighbor's music through his door, but I hear nothing once I get into our apartment.
We have a powerful stereo, too. But in over three years, we've only gotten one noise complaint. That was when I had it pretty loud, and was playing DDR at about midnight. I had just forgotten it was late.
Maybe I should put Ministry's Psalm 69 on, put it on repeat, crank the volume, and leave for a few days.
