1. Congrats to you on their coming move...

Sometimes the trash takes itself out.

[Poiuyt]

2. I don't think I could stand having to listen to Rush over the back fence.

[vlyons]

7. If he blared Rush asshole my way.

I'd play opera back at him. He wouldn't deserve Mozart, and he probably would'nt even recognize the chorale in Beethoven's 9th.

[Poiuyt]

8. Screeching sopranos singing cowboy songs

And crank the volume up to 11!

[SeeingEyeRefugee]

12. Get the old lawn mower out, remove that tiny little muffler, start it up and...

push it close to the fence...and walk away.

13. When I was in college, six of us rented the ground floor in an old house.

The couple who rented the basement apartment would come home every night and play Donnie and Marie at 3 AM. Polite requests to stop were to no avail.

Three of us were working in Top 40 radio at the time, and had multiple jingle package demos on reel tape laying around. One of us has a Kenwood quadraphonic receiver, and flour large Fisher speakers.

Sooo, one Saturday afternoon we splice several jingle packages together with a long leader on the front, threw the tape on my reel-to-reel, turned the speakers face down on the floor, turned up the volume, hit start and went out for a beer. What followed was 45 minutes of “Music Radio WLS.” “1260 KYA.” “Boss Radio 93 KHJ.” Very loud.

When we came back an hour later, they were sitting in front of our door begging us to make it stop. Poof! No more nocturnal Donnie and Marie!

64. Redneck campground

I live next to a campground have for years. Many years ago they installed a PA system and started playing goat roping music and paging people all weekend. My brother liked Jazz. We went away for the weekend and I had him drag out his big speakers and blast the jazz all weekend. The PA systen never got turned on again. I think it is called communication.

[Trueblue1968]

14. If he blared Rush asshole my way. ..... I'd play Tchaikovsky's 1812 OVERATURE back at him!!!

THIS MUSIC HAS ALWAYS WORKED FOR ME. No better noise than CANNONS !!!!!
when my neighbors got horrible, i would turn this up FULL BLAST. And I had a WONDERFUL stereo system

WARNING: Cannons may make dogs bark, scare your mom, leave your neighbor dumbfounded, make cats panic, wake you up in the middle of the night shouting at the top of your lungs because you think you are being robbed, scare the crap out of you, and/or blow up your ears and brains; among other things...

[Trueblue1968]

15. and as for opera .....Bizet - Carmen - Toreador Song WAS TERRIFIC.

[Igel]

18. Oooh ... Czech subtitles.

Reminds me that I have a Capek story to finish. Diky.

[COL Mustard]

47. I Love "Carmen"...One Of My Favorite Operas!

Opera was TV before there was TV.

[summer_in_TX]

27. I used to think I had a cast-iron stomach. Until the War of 1812 Overture, that is.

Every Fourth of July, the Austin Symphony Orchestra played it during the fireworks display. It took awhile to figure out that the concussive cannons instantly made my stomach hurt and my sense of well-being drained away.

After that, we started watching the display from a hilltop far away.

31. dang u, u beat me to it.!!!!

[Buns_of_Fire]

19. I recommend Slim Whitman.

Hey, it worked against the Martians...

[AllaN01Bear]

32. dang u, u beat me to it.!!!!

[twodogsbarking]

44. Boxcar Willie was bigger than Elvis and The Beatles.

Elvis was pretty big too.

[Aristus]

35. I'd press 'play' on my iPod-stored full-length recording of

Wagner’s Ring Cycle of four operas, fifteen hours of music, aim it at his fence, and then walk away.

[Fortinbras Armstrong]

50. Don't give him Mozart.

Give him Wozzeck or Lulu or Montezuma by Roger Sessions or anything by Phillip Glass. I'm sure you can come up with your own ghastly operas.

[csziggy]

33. Back in 2007 when they were building my house one of the workers had Rush on all the time

Full blast, as load as his boom box could play.

I told him to turn it the fuck off - that that lying piece of shit was not allowed to blast his lies on my property. I should have told the contractor to get that worker off the project. Yeah, he turned the radio off but later he caused significant damage and delayed us moving in for six months. I don't think the damage was truly malicious, I think the guy was just that totally stupid.

The damage - He used too long nails to attach the trim on a wet wall - nailed a PVC pipe twice. The slow leak destroyed the finished wood floor in the master bedroom. They had to rip up the floor (and of course the trim the idiot installed), tear out the bottom of the drywall, replace everything, repaint, refinish, and so on. He also nailed one of the windows in the same room so that had to be replaced.

The wood floor after the leak:


His next job - working in the hardware section at Lowes advising people about what size nails and screws to buy.

[USAFRetired_Liberal]

3. Yeah

I know a lot of people like that….hates the federal government, but has essentially been a government worker all their lives….first with the military and then as a civil service civilian…..to top it all off, they hate unions but are represented by a strong one which allows them to be lazy and hard to fire….and you talk about where the real welfare is going, it’s going to their lazy asses who sit around listening to conservative radio all day and surfing the internet not doing anything at work and getting paid tons of money….but they think just because they go somewhere in business attire that they aren’t lazy welfare bums

[LT Barclay]

36. I had to work with a USCG Senior CPO who was enraged about "socialism", his other job was as a

cop.
Got really sick of other USCG members who scream about socialism while enjoying the benefits of one of the most socialized employers in western society.

[plimsoll]

45. Conservatives are masters of projection.

This is just another example. To the point that I don’t really notice anymore. What else haven’t they accused others of only to see in their own ranks? If the the GOP makes it a an issue, they must have someone doing it somewhere.

Funny how it always comes up before the GOP story breaks though isn’t it. Foreknowledge, preemptive strike? It does work well with the “both sides do it” arguments they favor.

[PXR-5]

4. These vaccine mandates are

a great way to purge the nut jobs from the government, military, police etc.

[mobeau69]

22. Spot on, brother. Nt

[LiberalFighter]

5. Maybe he will move to a place appropriate for him?

[DBoon]

28. Belarus?

[dhol82]

66. Perfect!

[lindysalsagal]

6. No doubt going to be taking government medical or financial assistance

if they don't already. All of a sudden, he'll think government is supposed to take care of him....

[SheltieLover]

9. Congrats on the pos's upcoming move!

Cause for celebration!

[wnylib]

60. Probably can't afford his home now

that he's out of work.

[SheltieLover]

63. Could well be the case.

Covidiot.

[wnylib]

67. I really hope that's the case because

he knew the financial consequences of his choice. The social consequences are worse if he gets sick, takes up hospital space, and infects others.

[SheltieLover]

68. Absolutely!

[BlueJac]

10. Yippee!

[Baked Potato]

11. The government employed MAGAts are the worst hypocrites.

Democrats make sure they have and keep their cushy jobs, and the Repubes they idolize would throw them to the wolves without blinking.

[bluestarone]

16. Just gotta say i'm happy for you, that they are moving

Gotta be a great relief!

[Tetrachloride]

17. I helped my conservative roommate move.

He was a good guy. Helpful and conscientious. He just voted red. Helped me when i was sick. He knew more about world geography than me. and a better cook.

in the early pandemic days, our voting location of a primary was indoors, crowded and no strong ventilation system. We took our health seriously. i was first in line. but he immediately accepted my recommendation to not go vote when he woke up at midday.. The risk wasn’t worth it.

[Joinfortmill]

20. 👍

[Shermann]

21. Neighbors cranking up conservative talk radio...GRR!

Seriously what's up with that. I've experienced this.

I'd rather listen to a neighbor's shitty music. It's easier to tune out. With conversation, it's hard to keep your ear from focusing on it. It's the ultimate noise pollution.

[BobTheSubgenius]

23. Is he moving because of his change in circumstance?

If so, great! If it's a coincidence, I sure hope they didn't bite off more than they can chew, expense-wise. It would be an awful shame to see their life plans blow up in their faces.

[traitorsgalore]

39. They sold their house for a huge profit but are moving to a trailer park

My wife gets texts from his wife and that's the only way we communicate. Their story is they want to travel around in a mobile home for a while but I can't imagine just living in a trailer park for the convenience of it. Just about everything they say is a lie or some twisted and odd belief so I suspect that it's not all well in repuke-land.

The aholes flew a confederate flag in front of their house for 2 years and the guy currently has "if you're a liberal you should seriously consider killing yourself" on the front page of his Facebook account. As much as I don't like myself for wishing harm on others, I really resent their threatening my life for years now with Covid and hate speech.

[BobTheSubgenius]

56. I resent them already, and I'm probably hundreds of miles away from them.

And in a different country, for sure.

[SouthernDem4ever]

57. I resent them and will never even know them

that's what right-wing hate radio has done to me, made me hate right-wingers.

[BobTheSubgenius]

69. Imagine how the listeners hate us.

I wouldn't lose any sleep over harbouring hard feelings.

[Traildogbob]

24. Great they moving

I would blast the raunchiest, deep track, anti whitie rap with mega mega bass. Enough of the “N” word it would drive even them nuts.

[StocktonNative]

26. This guy gets it!

👍🇱🇷💯

[Traildogbob]

30. 🤜🤛

Wanna piss off trumpers and drown out Rush. Deep cut rap, so raw most rarely hear it. None of that bleep out MTV shit. Get nasty. I can take that much easier than Opera though.

[traitorsgalore]

40. Appealing as it sounds, I avoid them like the plague, literally.

They'll get silence and shunned from me, that's all they'll get.

[StocktonNative]

25. Another Sourhern Revisionist

living the life of great grand pappy' pappy wretched past. I would congratuate his peckerwood dumb action to his face. 😆

[IronLionZion]

29. Opening up jobs for more sensible people

[AllaN01Bear]

34. id play this

[LetMyPeopleVote]

37. Yeah

[Demovictory9]

38. ,

[ecstatic]

41. Are they moving to Texas?

[demmiblue]

43. Buh-bye!

[COL Mustard]

46. I Presume Your Neighbor Works For A State Or Local Government

We Feds had to submit exemption requests by 11/8, and have to be fully vaccinated by 11/22; if you haven't submitted an exemption request, the discipline process can start on 11/22. It'll take some time to get an unvaccinated Fed off the rolls, but it's more clear-cut than normal indiscipline or misconduct.

I hope the person moves, though.

[FakeNoose]

49. Maybe somebody sensible will move in

These days the anti-vaxxer idiots are losing their jobs all over. How can they afford this? How do they think they'll get another job anywhere else? I'm mystified.

But it's good for you, my friend. Your neighborhood just became more peaceful and pleasant.

[634-5789]

51. HEY! Made my day!

These clowns don't think the mandate applies...well, I guess it does.

[Texin]

52. Unfortunately, now he has more time on his hands and will probably be making

your life more miserable than ever with god knows whatev.

[SKKY]

53. Look on the bright side, that means a promotion for someone who...

...isn't a freaking idiot.

[pfitz59]

54. The "I hate the Government" government employees are mind-boggling.

I have a classmate who worked for CALTRANS for 40 years. Has a nice pension with full medical (came in handy when his fat ass had the heart attack). He is a big 2nd Amendment nut and a Trumpie. Rails against Unions (though he was in one). He is impossible to talk to.

[Hortensis]

58. Same here, but ours moved away, unmissed.

[kimbutgar]

55. Can you imagine his next job interview?

It says on your resume you fork for the government for X number of years. Why did you leave?

I see that interview ending immediately when he admits he quit because he refused to get the vaccine.

He just screwed himself and he doesn’t realize it won’t be so easily to find a job at a certain age and showing you don’t give a shit about your fellow Co workers.

Maybe he’ll sell his house and move to Texas or Florida.

[Hortensis]

59. End dates in this period are going to raise flags in HR minds.

Moving to any red state might increase his prospects, but not necessarily for jobs he'd have to compete for.
Seems likely that employers losing employees now would try to avoid recurrence with the next pandemic threat or other contentious issue.

[totodeinhere]

61. I would not be surprised that they are not dead yet since anyone who contracts

Covid, even an older person with underlying conditions, statistically has a better than even chance of surviving. I understand that you are probably being facetious. But I think it is important to point that out.

But regarding his getting fired. I had thought that government employees who refuse to get vaccinated would be put on unpaid leave but not fired. And if they decide later to get vaccinated they can go back to work. But maybe I had some bad information. That's why I brought this up.

[Dukkha]

62. Always great news when bad neighbors leave

I've had way more than my share. I learned through time that if your patient enough those problems usually resolve themselves and karma balance is restored.

[homegirl]

65. Within a week

he will be applying for food stamps and any other government benefits he can get!
