Ok first of all whut u post need to be legal = no ak-47
Heres my idea - Compost Pile (Goat Poo) Next to their house but on my property!

Suggested ~~

Play loud music ~ Metallica, Deep Purple, etc. (This one is fun!)

"transmit sound through lasers. This is to concentrate the music at one object. This may be more expensive, but all the other neighbors will begin to think your neighbors are crazy if you aim the beam with extremely loud music at them."

"also cd with track like "party with at least 200 people", "loud family arguement", "repair works" and even "extreme orgasms"..."

Well in the UK it's only illegal to play loud music after about 21:00 (I'm not sure about the exact time) and even then the worst that'll happen is that you get asked to turn it down - so long as you do as you're told.

Anyway, Deep Purple, The Who, Metallica - anything loud 9am-9pm.

You haven't even told us what's so 'nasty' about your neighbours. For all we know, you could be in the wrong.

Maybe you could ask them to move it rather than being a complete prick about it? Unless of course you have already asked, in which case you have every right to be a prick about it.

No, that was one of his ideas to get back at them - not the reason why he wants to get back at them.

So having a large pile of turd in your garden would annoy your neighbours. Okay, but it wouldn't be much fun for you either.

I saw a year or two ago on a news program that their are now music devices that transmit sound through lasers. This is to concentrate the music at one object. This may be more expensive, but all the other neighbors will begin to think your neighbors are crazy if you aim the beam with extremely loud music at them. Btw, only the object to which you aim the laser can hear the music.

I hear about that from Popular Science. The sound seems to come from their own head with devices like this so I wouldn't blast loud music at them but a very quiet voice commanding them to be nice to the fellow neighbors or something bad will happen. They might be fooled into thinking it's a spirit (bad or good) talking to them... especially when they find out that nobody else can hear the voice.

Here's the Popular Science link:

Clearly there's nothing wrong with his neighbours. This thread seems to be aimed at how to become a nasty neighbour.

I once left my room in Uni to go to a 2 day party. When I eventually got back, a little worse for wear, at about 3am in the morning, I heard this party going on in my block. Cool. Might see if I can get an impromptu invite thinks I. Probably know them anyhow. Tops. As I get nearer to the building I realise it is definitely in my area of the building. Great, almost definitely know them then. No problems. When I enter the building and get to my floor, I realise that actually it's coming from my floor, and my side of the building. Excellent. Only about 10 rooms or so in that area, and we all know each other. Also bangingly loud party, so must be a good one. As I get nearer to my room trying to work out exactly who is having the party I slowly realise that I am. Yes, my rather powerful stereo had turned on because of it's alarm (that I was testing out - was a new stereo - didn't actually use it to get up in the morning or anything ), and a friend of mine (just before I went to the party) had been mucking around with it and had turned it up *all* the way. Really really loud. Turns out the person who runs the building was away for a few days, and noone had a key. After a few feeble attempts to break the door down (sturdy old building) they all decided to go elsewhere (another party in another hall) because it was so loud. Heh, apparently most people stayed away for a few days. I wasn't well liked for a while after that one

Cheers

Ps. At the time I was totally into 70's rock (Black Sabbath for instance). So it wasn't exactly Enya at top volume

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

Linkin Park aren't that loud at all. You've obviously never lisened to the Who. All of their songs are recorded so much louder than any other band I've listened to. While I think 25/30 is ok for most bands on my MiniDisk player, I have to turn it down to 20/30 when a Who track comes on!

I have a legitimately bad neighbour. I mean, totally unreasonable. I have a video of her stood on my front doorstep, calling me every name under the sun, and at the same time saying that she isn't stood on my property - my path is at least 10 metres long .



Anyhoo...she used to have this fence that kept falling over, into her garden. She propped it up with a piece of broom handle about 6 inches long. Rather than frustrate myself over a pain in thea ass neighbour, I decided to have some fun without the guilt complex. Every day for a fortnight, I cut 1/4 inch off the broom handle, rubbed it in the soil to hide the cut, and knocked her fence over, leaving her to prop it back up again. Each day, it got harder and harder to balance the fence on the ever-shortening broom handle.

Why did I do it? It gave me a nice warm feeling inside, and an anecdote to share with friends, family and forum dwellers

We have a pycotic neighbor who sits in window whatching us all the time, in clothes that are to small for her(she's very spherical). Sometimes she walks into the middle of her backyard, and laughs maniacally while wearing a blonde wig. Once we tore down a fence that was on own side of the property line, yet in between our houses. So, our neighbor tried to break down our door, until we called the cops on her.

I have a house on my paper route with a woman who comes out and yells at me about everything from the fact that her paper is 10 seconds late, or that they have discontinued her FAVORITE flyer.
Who has a favorite flyer anyway?

Chuckle. Rightio. Are they your second favourite band after McFly? Did you cry when busted split up? As to sheer volume for stupidy sake, then Napalm Death used to be my band of choice. Plus with lots of 10 second songs it gets that iPod average right up.

Quote: "Nothing in comparision to Nirvana music"
Oh yes. Best American band like ever. Damn, no rock on smiley on this site....

Quote: "You've obviously never lisened to the Who"
Ah. Godlike. Notice how CSI keeps using Who tracks on the opening credits? (never watch them myself, but my lodger does religiously). Came as quite a suprise when I was a kid to discover they were english. For some reason I thought they were australian. Almost as big as a suprise as finding the Bee Gees weren't american (English again).

Now to listen to some AC/DC methinks.... Damn that lack of rock on smiley (two fingered animated one)....

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Little jackie paper loved that rascal puff,
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. oh

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on puff’s gigantic tail,
Noble kings and princes would bow whene’er they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flag when puff roared out his name. oh!

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

A dragon lives forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened, jackie paper came no more
And puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain,
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
Without his life-long friend, puff could not be brave,
So puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave. oh!

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.


BEST. SONG. EVER.

Quote: "The lyrics for "Puff" were based on a 1959 poem by Leonard Lipton, a nineteen-year-old Cornell student. Lipton was inspired by an Ogden Nash poem titled "Custard the Dragon", about a "realio, trulio, little pet dragon." Lipton passed his poem on to his friend Peter Yarrow, who added a tune and additional lyrics to transform the poem into the song"


Quote: "Believed by many people to refer to smoking marijuana, it became a hippie anthem. The authors of the song have repeatedly denied any intentional drug reference."


More to the point, the final verse construes that the little boy grows old of the imaginary dragon (and no longer sees him anymore). This isn't really applicable to marijuana because it is used by people of all ages. Particularly in the 50's, marijuana was most popular amongst an older, white upper middle class demographic, and not younger teenagers as it is today.

There's no hidden meaning behind the song.

Here's one idea:

If you head to a local department store that has a sporting goods department they typically sell a product called "skunk scent". Honestly I have no idea why stores sell this, but the kind we have in our stores is all natural (says on the label). One or two drops of that near or on the neighbors porch will have it stinking bad for a week or two.

I beleive its "we're a rock band, from seattle, well it sure beats, raising cattle, yeah"

Great parody about how kids sing along to Nivana having no idea what they are singing, whilst still feeling somehow rebellious, as no one can actually understand kobain when he yells
