Neighbour wooing?

[Galzon]

The guy who lives next door constantly makes a “wooing” sound. It is the most grating sound and the fact he has a wife and she hasn’t got the ick from it is frankly beyond belief.

From just typing this he’s shouted it out twice at the tv. I hate them anyway so nothing I can do but moan on here.

Surely though if you had a partner that sat watching tv and constantly shouted out “WOOO” every 2 minutes would you not tell them to shut the fuck up?

My first thought was a verbal stim or perhaps Tourette’s

I had a neighbour who did this, or something like this. One hot night with all windows open I lost my temper and shouted 'what is actually wrong with you?'. I've never heard him since. Maybe your neighbour doesn't know you can hear?

Are you in a North Yorkshire town, OP? My mums neighbour (the mooing man) has just moooved 😁house. He has a wife and 3 kids, I just don't know how she copes with it!

It was a constant moooooo/wooooo noise.

We had weird noises coming from our neighbours garden, like a constant cough and it turned out the DH has Tourette’s.

😂

Why am I actually considering the foghorn?

I’m genuinely not sure how long I’ve lived next to them … they moved in after me so maybe 2.5 years and I’ve only noticed it this year really. I’m not convinced it’s Tourettes.

😂😂😂😂😂

Elaborate please. Is he a man that randomly moos?

And I’m not in Yorkshire. I can’t even describe the noise he makes it’s like a cross between woo and woah. But he sounds like an absolute icky twat each time he does it. I hope his wife reads here and she can pass on the message.

I would assume a verbal tic, possibly Tourette’s. But you carry on mocking him.

He literally lows like a cow, like a long elongated 'MOOooooooo'

Pause

'MOOOOOoooooo'

Rinse and repeat. Over and over.

We did wonder if it was Tourettes.

Why would one assume Tourette?
No substantive basis for that assumption
Not all time and only evident recently He seem to be verbally active during tv or gaming no description of habitual or ongoing sustained woo tic
if it were Tourette unlikely it only be evident during tv and movie viewing . Recent onset of woo would rule out Tourette
With Tourette one could reasonably expect a more sustained pattern

So did I.

Tourette’s sufferers can develop new tics all the time, and sometimes tics are triggered by certain stimuli, so it is perfectly possible that he has Tourette’s.

For example, my oldest friend’s younger sister has Tourette’s, and she has certain verbal tics that usually only happen in specific situations - she has a particular one that happens when she’s a passenger in a car, for example. And she has new tics quite frequently. Last time I saw her she’d started doing one where she kind of slaps her own shoulder with the opposite hand, and I’d never seen her do that before.

oh well then
