No... not the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus... I'm talking about the upstairs neighbors!! OMFG!!!!!!!!! All day and all hours of the night this particular group of people are absolutely unbelievable! After one of my most recent apartments, I was hoping that I would never have to deal with the over-the-top noise again, but those hopes were crushed the first night we had stayed the night in our new place.
I am not racist by any means, but please know when I use the adjective "ghetto" that I am solely describing the manner in which these people conduct themselves. A normal family with children will come home after school or work and kids would be in bed by let's say 8 or 9pm. This group of people have their children up to all hours of the night, stomping around and carrying on til sometimes 1am to 3am in the morning.
The adults too.... stomping around slamming things down on the ground slamming doors, etc at all hours of the night. Sure... people can be on different schedules... I'm not saying that because I work 8-5 and my kids are in bed by 9pm that your kids have to be, but if you are in an apartment, and there are people living above, below, and beside you, that you would have some consideration for others.
My recent apartment before this had PAPER-THIN walls and the idea of any type of privacy there was diminished. I could hear things I would never want to hear.. like "what" you are actually doing in the bathroom when you're sitting on the toilet, and what you are talking to someone in a normal voice. Not to mention, escalated voices when you have people over and are having a good time. The normal walking there of people above us sounded like they were literally going to fall through the ceiling at any given point in time. The creeking of the wood was frightening for me and I'm an adult. I remember some of the first few nights there the stomping around upstairs would actually wake my kids up and they sometimes moved into the living room! There, my bedroom was also adjacent to the staircase in which we heard young college kids and other "ghetto" (adjective only) families with ten kids stomping up and down the stairs at all hours of the night.
Honestly, is it really necessary to stomp in a stairwell? As an adult, do you not teach your kids the idea of being courteous to neighbors and realizing that people could be trying to sleep? During the day, I'm all for being as noisy as you can. You allow your kids to play outside during the day, that's great!! At night, have a little respect for others around you. Oh yeah... and being outside completely unsupervised with a small pet? Why don't you give them a little direction and tell them they shouldn't be playing in the street with people flying around the corner in their cars while texting.. Why don't you tell them to shut their F-ing loud as mouths while they are in the stairwell as I can hear them behind two closed doors in my apartment.
I'm sorry I refuse to accept that I have to be the brunt of excessive noise and unruly people around me just because I've chosen to be in the first floor apartment. I refuse to believe that just because you live on the second floor or third floor that you have the right to stomp carelessly up and down the stairs at all hours of the night.
I am thinking that since we are all up very early every day, all of us around 5:30am every day, that I'm no longer going to try to quiet the boys from speaking beyond a whisper in the morning and asking them to keep it down outside in the common areas... maybe this should be a free-for-all. I want to tell them to be as loud as they can possibly be, but then again, I don't want to be IGNORANT like the degenerates that live above me.
PS... I'm sorry.. by the way... the tacky ass PINK AUDI (aka the ugly pink pimple) you drive with leopard print seat covers, steering wheel covers and dice you have hanging from your rear view mirror really accentuate your ghettoness....
