Author Topic: Annoying squeaking noise (Read 5221 times)

ark_ader · « **on:** March 13, 2017, 04:26:18 am »

I am getting squeaking noises from the old couple upstairs at 3am, on a regular basis now. I have not heard a peep from them ever before. I have an idea what is going on, but I have been disasterously wrong before. I already complained to management of the condos I am in, and HOA to no avail.

I thought I would be cute and leave a can of WD40 at their door.

Anyone have a more tactful idea I can use other than marching up there and asking them to stfu?

Normally I would put some white noise on, but it getting beyond a joke.

I cannot understand why you started a thread over something so trivial.

Definitely a first world problem ...

I used to share a wall with a part time prostitute. Nobody is doing anything at 3am to generate the noises she made every 20ish minutes unless there's payment involved. She was attractive but yikes.

Also had a drug dealer in the complex that the police could never quite bust (would see them outside my window with guns drawn every so often) and some kid that would beat stray cats to death. Oh, and a bunch of high school kids that were shitting in the bath tub of an empty unit during their lunch breaks.

We finally had enough and packed up and left. Management threatened to sue us over the "biohazard" we left in the freezer (frozen chicken legs). Hung up on them and never heard about the matter again.

I don't know what is worse, the couple upstairs or your squeaking responses.

I do not think it is anything to do with early morning acrobatics, but they did have a water heater problem, and I am concerned that their floor boards needs to be replaced. which might be the squeaking as they mill about upstairs.

I already complained to management of the condos I am in, and HOA to no avail.

Oh, you're one of those people...

If I was one of those people, Mr & Mrs geriatric would have been kicked out by now.

Apparently I'm the other guy that has to put up with squeak,squeak bloody squeak.

It takes time to reveal those issues, and could impact your future.

Next time it happens, go knock and see if you can get a gummer. Wear protection, old people have lots of herpes.

If you are going to play this game. Do it properly, and with full sentences.
