My B. They are just an inconsiderate moron in the morning.
Living in an apartment building means that there will be normal sounds of living.
Turning music on at 9am on the dot every morning hardly seems unreasonable. Some apartment buildings have such thin walls you can't even really talk to someone without someone hearing a bit of mumbling through.
So if you think there should be 100% silence everytime you'd like some, then I think you're being rather inconsiderate.
Whoa there friend, I'm not the one that made a Raspberry Pi powered interference device. I will stand by my statement that people that loudly blast music all hours of the day and night are morons. I'm also really happy to not live in an apartment anymore.
Yes, I would agree with that statement, but playing music every day at 9am, and similar, chill/energetic music implies that this person isn't in fact blasting music "all day".
I've lived in buildings with the worst people, and usually the morons who blast music like that, blast it at night.
I had a meth head murderer as a neighbour (he sat more than a decade for murder). He was a chill guy actually. I hung out with him a couple of times, not too stupid either.
Anyway then he got back into speed and meth and then he got better speakers and despite living two floors down from me, I could feel the bass at night.
I don't know why no-one called the cops. I couldn't, since I really didn't want to be in a position in which I'd have had to lie to a murderer about "snitching" on him, because calling the cops would've ofc meant they figure out the drugs.
Eventually someone did call the cops, after, like, weeks of every few days him having insane bass at all hours of the day, continuously. The cops had to use powertools to saw his door in half so they could even get in. (Gave him time to flush a half a kilo of speed.)
Now I don't mind talking about it because he's dead.
Anyway, in a situation in which it's more than likely a methhead high as fuck, no, I perhaps wouldn't engage. I'd just curse them silly.
But this article seems to be about a person with a nice morning schedule. Which I feel is very different as a situation.
Cool story.
Thanks, man.
