Ok, admittedly I’m just here to rant.

at 8.30am this lovely Sunday morning my neighbours, who are normally fine, started playing the SAME SONG on repeat at a defeating volume. Woke the whole house up and you can hear it in every room.

AIBU to think this is completely f-ing unacceptable?!

p.s there are some pregnancy hormones at play here but…. Shhh

Tracey is going to be livid!!!

😂😂

Nosleepforthismum · 09/04/2023 13:12

Ahh OP. I say this with love but enjoy peace until 8.30am on Sunday. Before too long you will be listening to peppa fucking pig on a loop from 5.30am and your neighbours will hate you for it 😅

If it's 'Help' (Beatles) or similar maybe they need help?!!?

If it’s psycho killer are they a psycho killer?do they smell like teen spirit?

FOTTFSOFTFOASM · 09/04/2023 13:51

YABU for using "livid". A PP is also BU for "raging".

We just need someone to say it's "grim", now.

I say cash machine. But generally never think about cash machines at all. I can’t even remember the last time I used one. It was a while ago.

Most people - and even your bank sometimes (because user centred design should generally use language the customer uses, regardless of what is technically correct) - will say PIN number. Because it’s now less an acronym than a standard phrase.

You don't need to add the 'as well'.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

yodayoga1 · 09/04/2023 16:38

@DoTrollsShitInTheThreads @Gymnopedie Very well played 😂😂😂

And can someone tell me who the fuck is Tracey? I'm not getting that joke!

hotdiggetydog · 09/04/2023 11:52

It's not clarity, it's an unnecessary repetition.

I'll bet you say "PIN number" and "ATM machine" as well.

If you want to nitpick, OP said 8:30, not 8:00. Just to clarify.

I’m laughing over your user name. Brilliant! 🤣😂

The family that live several gardens away chatted at nugtclub level volume from 07:20 until 20:45 yesterday. Non stop..
It was the 2nd day of their very obviously Fish barbecue, so the smoke drifted wide and far, settling on folks washing.
To be fair, the only voices were male..and one female child that shrieked regularly whilst playing happily.. Smile

Bluebellsbells · 09/04/2023 23:37

I really hope op is called Tracey!

If you don't get the joke- you definitely are missing out- check out Richardfrankscomedy on insta!

Thump on tge fucking door & tell them to turn it down or better still off !!! Now or you’ll break the sodding stereo with your bare hormonal hands 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Its Phil Collins isn’t it.

This thread reminded me of a similar thing I endured for a couple of days in the 80s….and the song was: “Easy Lover” by Phil Collins!!!

And I’ll bet you’re fun at parties.

hotdiggetydog · 10/04/2023 19:02

I might not be fun, but at least I speak properly.

From everything I've seen you post on this site, I'd respectfully disagree. Most of us speak out of our mouths, not our rear ends.

That's incredibly rude

GoodChat · 10/04/2023 19:39

@hotdiggetydog you must have missed the 'respectfully' Wink

For those of you asking what’s the song, we don’t know and it’s not in English but further detective work from DP reveals it’s a traditional gospel song. Normally lovely. Not this morning lol. At least I understand WHY now… and hopefully this is annual.

Gospel. You have more patience than me!!

I'd have probably tested out the speakers with Bat Out of Hell

then gone out for breakfast.

Oh yes the classic "no offence but" insert very offensive comment here

mbosnz · 10/04/2023 19:44

I'm sure they meant 'with all due respect. . . ' very useful phrase, that one.

ReadersD1gest · 10/04/2023 19:46

Maybe don't dish it out if you can't take it, @hotdiggetydog?

What have I dished out apart from calling out some bigotry?

Calling out bigotry? Didn't you very snidely correct someone's use of the English language? That was you, wasn't it?
