Whoever lives next to me in my apartment building is playing Phil Collins' "In the Air Tonight" so loud I can hear and understand every word. Normally this wouldn't be such a big deal, I mean Phil Collins is alright...but I'm trying to write a paper on what Shakespearean Opera and I need complete silence. Unfortunately I have no laptop or else I'd go to the library...

What do I do? Do you knock on their door and ask them to turn it down? That seems awkward...

Play music to drown it out, wear headphones, or go over there, ring the doorbell, knock on the door, throw sticks at his window, whatever, get his attention and say, "LOWER THE VOLUME PLEASE!" then go back in, and if that doesn't work...then you can hire me to kill him for you... >_>

I think a gun spree is your only option.

Or use common sense.

Ask them to turn it down and if they don't turn it down, report them to the police.

Of course thats option #1...but if you don't have a gun, a bat will work perfectly fine too.

then put your shoes on and start kicking the wall.
she'll eventually come on over to see what you're doing...when she asks you what you're doing, say "I'M TRYIN TO GET THAT ***** TO TURN THAT **** OFF!" (as if you don't know she's the one who lives there)

the polite thing to do would be to nicely ask to turn the music down, just cause they might not no that there brothering anyone; and if they refuse then call the cops and they will get a fine, i had to call the cops of my nieghbors a few times and 1000$ later they stopped.

First off, In the Air Tonight is an awesome song, but I can understand that your trying to do a paper. So I would just shoot fireworks threw their windows, or ask them to turn it down.

I went over to the single mom's apartment, nobody answered. Besides, she's a single mom. I know thats no excuse to be blasting music and whatnot but I'm not going to take anything away from her if I don't absolutely have to...
