I’m not seeing the horror story here

The mat comes on Tuesday, the partner? every day. w00t w00t

Why do people write REAL letters as if they're typing a text message? @ instead of "at"

Off subject a bit, but I love the writing in the notes left. Mine would not be legible if I was angry with my neighbors.

Don't give them any chocolate. They will not comply only to want more of it.

I complained about super noisy neighbors and was asked if they rent or own. I'm still trying to figure out how this is relevant several days later

I cellotaped them on the door with a note saying they must have misplaced them

Petty revenge or illegal?... Collect them all and post them back to them via their mailbox?

Buy the neighbor a bucket or hang some type of netting up (if allowed). Tis a shame some weren't smoked all the way. I'm a lot more gracious when smoking around others. It's gross but others shouldn't have to suffer too.

i'd gather them up & dump them at their door (if bringing it to their attention didn't work)

This would get them evicted @ my place!

Reasonable. And, from someone who has seizures, necessary.

So polite.

I had that happen to me. Except I think they got the message when I yelled WTF!?!

Here, we are only allowed to water our plants on our patios. To water inside the apartment is a lease violation & we only get four for the lifetime of our lease. The upstairs patios are at a 5% decline so the water (whether from rain or otherwise) always rolls down onto my neighbor's patio. If she has a problem with it, she is to take it to management. Period.

Well, I usually go tell my downstairs neighbors that I'm going to clean my balcony, so they should expect water dripping and can prepare 🤷‍♀️

what a nice person... I would have ran upstairs and ....

Walls should be more sturdy.

I would encourage MORE laughter

Seriously!!!!! I had a neighbor at my apartment who yelled "SHUTUP!!!"to my son for laughing and playing outside at 7pm.

Nope. I'm going to make him watch funny videos outside now.

Should have signed it Ebenezer Scrooge. Bah, humbug .... children have no right to enjoy themselves so much.

If its a genuine happy kid, its not annoying. If its a disturbed psychopath spoiled crazy kid "laughing" to get attention or whatever, its annoying as Sh*t. And we ALL know a kid like that!

I would appreciate this note because I don't know what they do when I am not there

Too polite.

Poor neighbors!

My neighbors! When they go out of town they leave the dogs in the backyard. I get Copper and Juno:an all night bark opera extravaganza.

Is it even legal for your landlord to tell you you can't smoke in your own home?

In Georgia, this is a lease violation &, because of the 2005/2023 Georgia Smokefree Air Act the perp can be arrested. If convicted, for first offense, they will receive a misdemeanor charge with up to a $500 fine & up to 6-months in jail. Each new offense the law gets stiffer/harsher. Go for it!

That door is $50 at best (and obviously American because it's made out of compressed cardboard shît; trust me I'm an American and even the doors in our fully-rennovated main city house are made out of, at-best, wood-chips and mod-podge 🫠)

Yeah screw that pricing go find your local homeware store and buy a new door for cheaper than that

Doors usually run about $200 for a plain solid one.

The cat is considering putting in a bid himself. Or perhaps asking for the door to be kept so he can come and go freely.

OP would come out better buying the door and replacing it themselves. That is the cheapest door made and they are easy to put up.

A case of sleep apnoea by the sound of it.

Sleep with your face nosedown 30 degrees below horizontal. Lose a little weight. The tongue is the first thing to lose fat. Worked for me, 35 years now.

Get them earplugs... not all that snors are sick... some of us are made that way..

Reasonable request though. She didn't even mention normal living noises like flushing toilet or having a quick shower, just things that really disturb neighbours at night in an apartment complex.

If this person is 73 years old, they should know how to spell correctly.

This is not drama, this is a reasonable ask.
