Jackass next door - yes, YOU! Crank it up more - I can't hear the words!
Like another DUer this morning, I am also afflicted with an excessively noisy neighbor this morning (and afternoon, and evening). All I can hear is the constant "boom boom - boom boom - boom boom" of whatever music he's playing. I no longer try to keep the volume on my TV modulated; I blast it as loudly as I want, too. No one seems to mind so far. If called on it, I shall use the age-old "but everyone else does it!" defense.

1. I've got Russian disco next door, and country upstairs ...
... and a pair of very-well used earplugs.

If all else fails, find a time your asswad neighbor is probably asleep, and break out some Maria Callas at full volume.

:evilgrin:

3. Better yet, Slim Whitman
It made the martians heads explode in "Mars Attacks".

Just the threat would do it. I had a next door neighbor, whose kid kept blasting some rap everytime his parents were gone.

I told his father, I was going out to get a Slim Whitman album, and I have a very powerful stereo system. I was gonna point all 5 speakers at his house, and turn it up.

It's been quiet ever since.

5. If the police won't intervene, I find threats and intimidation work best

A brick through the window with a note reading, "Next time, it's a grenade" never fails.
