The Kindness of Neighbors
Dear neighbor, I want to thank you. Thank you for playing your sweetly melodic rap music, with its harmonious bass line thrumming like a clogged leafblower outside my window. It's kind of you to turn it up so very loud--how did you know that I am deaf due to the construction taking place around the corner, what with all those nasty tractors and jack-hammers. Without your kind thought for decibel level I would never have heard the music that clearly speaks to your soul and now to mine: Got bitches shutting you down in the C.L.K So artfully delivered: You'se a busta, a customer, a sucker / You fake fraudulent motherfucker.
Thank you, thank you thank you for sharing.
I felt this line in particular, which I will leave you with as a closing:
Fuck till I nut then get up, I'm gone (yeah)

Humour intact. Good!
Thanking and appreciating... you're a good pupil ;)
Oooh, I feel for you. We live next to a family with a fourteen-year-old boy whose habits include:
a. riding around in circles in his yard on a very loud ATV
b. practicing the drums
And we live in the country. God help us all.
and you say you can't write funny!
Eek! I feel for you, funny as this post is nonetheless. I now live in a huge apartment building and its mostly filled with elderly people so its the opposite-crazy quiet and peaceful! But I empathize as I often hear that loud, thundering stuff when I am driving and someone is next to me at a red light. It actually pisses me off as its just so terribly inconsiderate to any and all those around you. Hope it subsides soon truly!
A silly idea: haven't you tried going there and explaining to him that you need some peace to do your work? Maybe you could go there with a little present: earphones.
Surprising people sometimes has a good effect.
Are you reviewing "Secret Smile" this month?
Thanks all of you for commiserating. Truth is, they could have been playing my favorite song, but at that level it would still irritate me!
I should just go talk to him. I'm a coward :)
Amishlaw: I am going to review Secret Smile. I'm just whooped this week, so probably tomorrow.
