To ask what drugs make people laugh and shriek non stop for hours?

Not because I want them myself mind.

We have a new-ish neighbour who is extremely noisy. She has friends around sometimes on weekends and today they have been shrieking non-stop for literally hours. By non-stop, I mean they are barely pausing for breath. I don’t think it can be a proper conversation, it’s just people yelling over each other. Also lots of stomping around the house (it’s a strange layout where they share a wall with us upstairs but not downstairs).

On previous occasions I’ve assumed it was alcohol but it’s just not normal tonight and now I’m wondering what they’re on.

Seriously, it sounds like galumphing Pontypines next door!

It could be mushrooms..

Laughing gas? Cocaine? Just idiots?

FLOWER1982 · 15/06/2024 21:48

Some people are just very loud and annoying.

Definitely. Given that the previous neighbours had a baby and a toddler and we never heard them at all, there’s definitely something very odd about her. The walls are thick here!

Hmm…ecstasy? Is there loud music and lots of dancing as well?
Or speed?

OneTC · 15/06/2024 21:54

Booze and cocaine fits the bill. So does being loud and annoying

Auntimabelsbudgie · 15/06/2024 21:54

Omg. Between this and another thread on an apparent drug-purchasing mother at the school gates, we are doomed
But clearly some MNetters believe they are drug sniffer dogs who are obviously keeping the country safe by noticing such things and pointing it out on a forum rather than reporting to the police

Eh? I’m hardly going to call the police and report that my neighbours have been talking and laughing for hours! 🤣

A group of neurodivergent friends (particularly ADHD) who don't often all spend time together? Seriously, it sounds a lot like me and some of my closest friends when we get together, and several of the group don't even drink alcohol!

I get your point and I have ADHD so I know exactly what you mean, but they genuinely didn’t pause at all. For maybe 4 hours. The noise was constant. Not like a normal (even ND) gathering at all.

The good news is that they seem to have gone out. The constant Pontipine noise was really getting to me.

Why assume they are taking drugs?

Did you actually read the thread? It might help to explain it.

You might want to try some drugs yourself, might cheer you up a bit?

Tickle fight?
Comedy dvd night?
Laughing gas?

ItsNotAShopItsAStore · 15/06/2024 22:06

Yes, in your original post you said '...assumed it was alcohol but it’s just not normal tonight and now I’m wondering what they’re on...
So yes, you've assumed they were on drugs

Laughing gas maybe?
Where I live I always see those small silver canister things discarded and balloons ( pretty rough area ) there can be a lot of shrieking too.

Auntimabelsbudgie · 15/06/2024 22:14

Pontipines

Are you the one on drugs?
In your original post, you stated, as i have pointed out, that you were wondering what they were on because they were noisy for hours, and your post title asked which drugs caused people to laugh and shriek non-stop for hours...
So yes, you were assuming they were on drugs
So what is your problem with my post?

Fancypants2022 · 15/06/2024 22:21

Magic mushrooms

TheGrimSqueakersFlea · 15/06/2024 22:37

Maybe they're all on mumsnet? People on here often cry with laughter, spit tea and wake the baby

NDmumoftwo · 15/06/2024 22:48

Cocaine

Rainpigeon · 15/06/2024 22:51

Sounds like mushrooms, that's the only thing that's given me hysterical laughter.

Barefootsally · 15/06/2024 22:52

I doubt it’s cocaine as I’ve party I’ve been at you can tell the dicks that are on coke as it’s loud talking but a pretty ‘moody’ atmosphere.

Maybe laughing gas or the giggles on weed. Or poppers!
