I really might lose it if my neighbor downstairs doesn’t learn to turn down her TV; and the one upstairs if she doesn’t learn to walk instead of stomp up/down the stairs or through her house, and quit slamming doors. Any of you guys have similar situations going on? How do you not lose it on them, or how did you deal with it? ---

How do you not lose it on them, or how did you deal with it? You’ve got two options. Approach them like an adult and express your concerns. Or be passive aggressive and/or childish about it. I personally would go for “express my concerns like an adult”, and failing that, know that your gave them a chance, and _then_ resort to passive aggressive and childish measures, while still maintaining the moral high ground. ---

Yep, got one asshole that lives next door to us. Yells at everyone for slamming doors. Yet slams his and is constantly yelling at his wife and kid or stomping around until 12-1 am ---

Definitely not getting childish, but I’m torn over the more “mature” options - Do I tell the landlord? Since he specifically asks each tenant who moves in not to slam the doors / stomp on the stairs… Or, do I approach them myself and remind them politely of the rules first. ---

Put dog shit in front of their door and light it on fire. Works especially well when they aren’t home. ---

He didn’t touch my wife. he put his hand in front of her face probably a foot or so away. If he touched her I wouldn’t be here that’s for fucking sure. I can guarantee and mark my fucking words ANYONE ever touches my wife or my daughter they will never see the light of day unless its from their hospital bed. ---
