Have you tried being a good neighbor and letting them know their loud parties are causing you harm?

Because otherwise you’re tacitly telling them it’s fine.

Just tried that last week and I will never directly contact people like that again.

All it got me was an angry neighbor who now turns their shit up louder than it was before as they drive by my house.

I guess I'll just resort to fucking with their vehicle in the future.

You can't reason with some people.

I went over once when they were shooting off commercial grade fireworks on a Wednesday night and feel lucky to have escaped alive. The young bulls got threatening with me until the older guy came out and spoke reason. It's just a product of where I live.

Pro-tip: make an effort to interact with your neighbors *before* this situation so they know you as more than a stuffy Karen.
