To tell the neighbour to have some fucking respect

My next door neighbour is nice. He plays heavy dance music with a heavy bass. He's a fucker for it. He also has it playing out into his garden on nice days. Cuntish especially as most of our neighbours are of the older generation and probably won't like dance music too much.

Anyway sometimes it starts at 8 a.m. what is never on too loud it's just the bass constantly banging. It's currently on now louder than normally and I can't concentrate on the TV and can hear it over my own music. It's shit. The thud thud thud is causing me anxiety every day. Should I nicely ask neighbour to turn it down? He must be aware it's loud enough I can hear it. I was going to tell him the other day but it stopped. Really tired of it and when I hear the music come on now I get a deep feeling of dread.

Are you alive OP?

Thank you for all your replies. I am alive and well! Last night he had been out (lockdown, I know) and got back around 11pm with a friend who doesn't live with him. I was tired and ready for bed and suddenly the thud thud thud started coming through the walls. I was furious at the lack of consideration for me and so tired and pissed off I sent him a text being polite as I could muster asking if he minded turning the bass volume down and he was very apologetic and apologised again this morning. Not heard any music today. Fingers crossed he'll be more considerate from now on.

Bloody hope so.

Well done. I'm glad he's apologetic; that bodes well for the future of your neighbourly relationship.
