There are other songs to listen to at your parties other than "Love Lockdown" and "Whatever You Like." I promise, no I swear to god that there are more than two songs out there to dance to right now. The reason I bring this up is that for the past two months the apartment above me has been blasting those two songs on a loop at all times of the day and night. I think I may relax my position on the legal availability of the possession of assault weapons soon.

 So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind. |

Oh jeeze. I suppose it would be terribly naive of me to suggest you ask them to turn it down...
Look on the bright side, though. When I was in college, I woke up in the middle of the night to find my roommate in flagrante delicto with the boyfriend she had snuck into our room during the night. Ugh.
Although come to think of it, that's probably preferable to what you're dealing with. There's always the option of pulling the fire alarm, I guess...

How awkward. Did they seriously think they wouldn't make enough noise to wake you up?

Greg, you are right.
There are actually three songs out there. You forgot "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)".

I woke up to see my roommate cheating on his girlfriend in the middle of the night. Call and raise.
Last time I asked someone to turn down the music (it was a Monday night, and I had to go to work at 5 a.m.), I got into a fistfight with one of his guests. I really don't mind loud music at all, but I'd rather prefer if they:
a) chose more than two or three songs
b) would allow me to actually hear more than the bass. I love music, but I hate only hearing the rumblings of the low end.
Ah well, I've got about 2 liters of Jack tonight and got my new sound system working, so that ought to make things a little more manageable. I really hope that they like an evening of Fugazi and Mustard Plug.

I am a college student, and as I was leaving campus to come home for lunch, I was in fact blaring Ride The Lightning. Loud enough that it drowned out most rhythm from other cars, but damn if I'm beat on some bass thumps.

Not only is that not right, that's not even wrong. It's a meaningless statement. Saying something is "one molecule away" from plastic is like saying a farm is one letter away from a fart. Water is "one molecule away" from being explosive hydrogen gas. |

Apparently  . But my roomate was an asshole anyway, had no regard for personal space or anything. Only bright side is she never tried to steal my stuff. I wish I had had he money to get a single room, let me tell you. Blegh.
And Greg, I have had another thought. Retaliate with Metallica. "Fuel" and "Enter Sandman" were good enough to torture terrorists (or suspected terrorists anyway), I'm sure it will work on those inconsiderate asses.

Metalliate? Hell that even works for using any kind of metal. Maybe break out some Manowar too.

IT MEANS SEX. IT MEANS THAT SHE CAUGHT THEM WHEN THEY WERE HAVING SEX. LIKE, SHE WOKE UP, AND SHE SAW THEM HAVING SEX.
At my school, things ain't too bad. Not much noise, just people skateboarding into people's doors.

Oh, just plain sex. I thought it was some special kind of sex. Like an Alaskan Pipeline. Or a European breakfast. Or a rainbow kiss. Or a Red Dragon. Yes I know what all of those mean. Except the Red Dragon. But don't tell me anyway.

I hear you greg. Last year we had one kid play the same country song over and over again. So it got to the point where I turned on my Surround Sound and started playing some NWA while in the process owning people in Counter-Strike.
My Best advice to you is to find out what music they like, which you can figure out your self and you have probably and then play something that they would HATE and you can stand it.

Oh, and Greg, three words: My Bloody Valentine. That'll make anyone leave the building.

There is a simple solution to this. They play loud music, you get a bigger system and play louder music. It's not like they would go out and then buy something even larger thus creating some kind of  type situation where the victor is the last one to buy some ridiculously massive media monster before their credit cards are maxed out, right?
....On second thought, maybe you should just tell them to turn it down a bit or better yet, make them a mix tape so they have something else to play!
