Are my neighbours tits?

I could bore you with a huge back catalogue of all the titish things our neighbours have said/done/complained about over the years but I'll spare you the tedium.

What I'd like to know is how much this would annoy you.....

Every evening mr tit goes out and comes back home between around 10.30-11pm.
He pulls up on the drive (our driveways adjoin) and beeps his horn in order for Mrs tit to come out and open the garage for him.

He only beeps once but we live on an incredibly quiet road so it feels very loud and intrusive at that time of night.

My DH and I used to just give each other the Hmm look whenever it happened but now it's become such a nightly ritual that it enrages me so much that I've lost all perspective of things.

I have 3 small children at home and this beeping hasn't woken them up so I guess you could ask what my problem is. It just seems like a wholly obnoxious and inconsiderate thing to do, or AIBU?!

Yes!! Utterly pendulous udders.

Jigglytuff · 29/01/2018 22:00

Yep

shushpenfold · 29/01/2018 22:00

Will you be advising aforementioned tit to stop with the knobby honking of horn?

TheSnowFairy · 29/01/2018 22:01

If they are called Mr and Mrs Tit then they are indeed Tits.

I'd be spitting feathers. What an inconsiderate fucking bellend.

Trashboat · 29/01/2018 22:03

Are your neighbours tits what?

Spaniels ears?
Pert and pretty?
Like asprins on a draining board?

Mishappening · 29/01/2018 22:03

The problem is that when something gets under your skin, it festers and gradually enrages you.

I can remember being on a caravan site and some pillocks were having an all-night rave in theirs - I nearly went out and slashed their tyres - I was seriously beginning to lose it!

What you need is some response - every time he does it then beep a klaxon out of the window.

Alabasterangel6 · 29/01/2018 22:03

Go outside after he’s got home and sit in your car, wait until his bedroom light has gone off then give it a while; just enough for him to have dropped into a light sleep.....

Then bib your horn.

Repeat nightly.

Lottapianos · 29/01/2018 22:04

This would drive me mad. Extremely inconsiderate

Do you feel like you could have a word about it, without murdering either of them?

Mishappening · 29/01/2018 22:05

Or better still set your alarm for about 5.30 am and go out and beep your car horn. I bet that would drive them mad and you would not have to do it very often before they got the message.

corrianderisthedevil · 29/01/2018 22:05

I'm loving the suggestions. Other than having a polite word with them.....that's far too sensible and boring. Currently ordering a klaxon on amazon.....

I had neighbours who didn’t take their dogs for walks much and they used to put them out in the back garden at 11.30pm and again at 6 am every day. The dogs would have a good bark every time. I never complained because I felt sorry for the dogs. Some people are selfish tits!

They are tits. That sounding of the horn is really inconsiderate.

ivykaty44 · 29/01/2018 22:09

I now have an image of you rushing out as the beep happens the klaxon vibrates in his ear and his wife drops 💀 dead

corrianderisthedevil · 29/01/2018 22:11

Glad it's not just me. They are quite possibly the most inconsiderate cunts I've ever met. Both ageing professionals with no children. So they've never had anyone to worry about other than their titish selves. I'm lying in bed as I type waiting for the worlds worst car horn to sound. They've got a shit car too which makes it all the more insulting. It's not even a sexy beep.

I was with you till that Confused

Singlebutmarried · 29/01/2018 22:17

Could you break into the garage and replace horn with:

A) dukes of hazard Dixie horn

B) awooga horn

C) whale music

D) a recording saying ‘I’m a cunt cos I beep my horn at the same time every night thoroughly pissing offf my neighbours’

Freyanna · 29/01/2018 22:17

That would annoy me too, he could easily phone her on his mobile, she woudn't need to pick up so it woudn't cost anything.

You could say the beeping is waking your DC.

GottaGetThisDone · 29/01/2018 22:19

Our neighbours DD has a BF who drives his car out the drive and onto the road and he beeps as he passes their house nearly every night. Drives me crazy but not as much as their poxy fucking happy shitty dog who yaps incessantly always AFTER 11.30pm, and again anywhere between 6.30am and 7.3-am. I never hear anyone speak to the dogs to tell them to be quiet. It isn't every single night it is just random nights Angry

EyeSaidTheFly · 29/01/2018 22:19

fucking love this thread.

Lottapianos · 29/01/2018 22:20

You beat me to it Riverside2

OP, next time he does it, run outside and scream at him to THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!

Lots of luck......

OVienna · 29/01/2018 22:21

What else have they done? Go on.

tillytrotter1 · 29/01/2018 22:23

We had neighbours with sons who liked fast, noisy cars. They didn't live at home but used the parents' garage and they turned up about 2 am every morning, after closing their takeaway, revved their engines, left them running whilst they opened the garage door, revved up a few times to get them into the garage then noisily slammed the door. The whole neighbourhood was up in arms, quite a few small children but when someone asked them to be more considerate, guess what, they were being 'racist'. When one of them decided to tune up the engine of his car by standing it horizontally across the drive so that the exhaust was almost in our open window he called me a racist too and was astounded when I said, You say that like it's a bad thing!

EmpressOfTheSpartacusOceans · 29/01/2018 22:23

"Both ageing professionals with no children. So they've never had anyone to worry about other than their titish selves"

Ouch. I was with you up to that point.

Are you saying that people who have careers & no children (like me) are selfish, or that your tits would have been better people if they were parents?
