these 2 are seemingly regular-sized humans but sound like a herd of fucking buffalo upstairs. just constant pacing from 6am-3am. front door to kitchen in a goddamned loop. i say pacing but it is stomping to the point the joists are creaking. no breaks, really all day; hearing it now at 2am and it woke me up this morning. who even walks into the corner of the room that often? if i weren't on the verge of insanity hearing it nonstop, i wouldn't believe that's possible, but here we are. any suggestions on how to make them shut the fuck up? for the record we did already say something directly and i would rather not go to jail. already got vetoed on installation and persistent use of sex swing.
Downstairs neighbors always loses. That's why I'm up here.
How's that wifi working fellas? Hit the wall one more fucking time.
upvoted because probably true.
My people hit the ceiling when I'm sitting down typing. I'm no stomper either, I had a landlord who lived below me and I would ask if I was too loud. He told me it was like renting to a ghost.
Yesterday an old lady stopped me in the parking lot and told me about another vacant unit being available and said these exact words: "if you moved there, those boy couldn't torment you anymore"
Everyone here knows I'm not the problem.
I replied to the old lady "Oh I think they will be stopping very soon" She will run and tell their parents this.
Well, I have no serious suggestion, so I'll just leave these here for your possible amusement.
Rupture your eardrums Set your ceiling on fire Call the A-Team Call immigration and tell them you suspect american citizens are living above you. Remove the door on your microwave, defeat the safety switches, and duct tape it face-up to the ceiling and cook for 7 days on high. Drill a 1/16th inch hole up and blow marijuana smoke into their habitat. They'll get the munchies and head to Taco Hell. Build an anti-gravity device, but build it backwards so that gravity increases instead, and turn it up to about 6 G's. They won't be able to move. Go on vacation for a few days, but leave your stereo turned up to maximum with "Hit Me Baby One More Time" on loop. You could put on a sheet and wander around going "boo, BOO!" and that might frighten them.
“Excuse me, sir and/or madam, it is with reluctance that I must inform you that the ceiling does very little to dampen the sound of your pacing in your domicile above mine. As the sound travels loudly especially in the late night hours, I’d like to request you limit your pacing so that I may sleep. Thank you for your understanding.”
Ok, so this is tricky. The one thing you should probably keep in mind is that it's very likely that they're not trying to be inconsiderate. They can't hear what you're hearing, and they can't stop doing what they don't realize they're doing. So maybe find a way for them to actually hear what you're going through. If they're reasonable enough, they'll understand and y'all can take steps together to fix the problem. If you rent you can try getting the landlord involved, no landlord wants to lose a good tenant over something easily fixed. Another option, though actually the hardest, is to change the way feel when you hear whatever noise they're making. Suffering is a choice afterall. If none of that works, just go ahead and do the needful. The crime scene should be permanently uninhabitable though to prevent future issues popping up.

Noxious chemicals that people refuse to breathe can make a place uninhabitable. There will be a couple months of construction noise directly overhead, while they strip the place and redo it, but then new and potentially Whiter people will arrive.
Given the pattern of foot activity and the times you're sharing, it reads like they maybe dealing drugs. It would also explain the behavior. If your life has been threatened, consider investing into a home, personal and vehicle audio/video surveillance set-up. Do not have any interactions with them you don't record. If you live in a municipality that allows you to be armed, get armed, and train at the ranges regularly.
I'd also recommend you invest into body armor, getting in good physical shape, and taking up boxing.
Beyond that, I'd keep make note of the foot activity, collect the name of the residents, and relay the information to your local police narcotics unit for them to investigate. Also, looking for someplace else to live couldn't hurt.
Probably the best advice here. When I went down and confronted my downstairs neighbor, he gave me a bit of a toughie look and I drilled one right back to him. I'm dealing with a family of shitskins so I have to wait to find the adult male and thats him.
He's not a skinny boi, it would be a tussle for sure. I'm a bit taller, and he's beergut fat and that aint muscle on them big flappy arms. Even still, given the likelihood and ghetto factors, I been ripping pretty regular since that revelation. After a week of that, pretty confident and its been pretty quiet since.
I dont remember who said it about "wanting to be left alone" but they said that the only way to achieve it in some places was to make it where everyone pisses themselves when you walk past. The closer I get to that, the more alone I am left. Amazing.
Get a burner phone that can't be traced back to you and take a walk when you can't sleep from the late night ruckus. Call the cops and anonymously report sounds of domestic violence. After a dozen calls the cops will get pissed about constantly going to the same address and will use their own tactics to deal with the problem. If you are lucky they'll get caught with meth or something and be arrested. Just don't be lazy and do anything stupid like call from your apartment where the phone can be traced to your location. Keep the phone off until you go for a walk. Also avoid any security cameras in your area. SWAT'ing your enemies is a common tool used to harass undesirables but it can bite you in the ass if you're foolish about it
who says a trailer costs 100k LOL. ANyway, if you are on your own piece of dirt to scratch around on, you can pick away at building a house. I know because I have done it
LOLZ, my generation? Bro, i'm a struggling gen-x'er and I didn't destroy anyone's currency. But I did recognize it as being destroyed about 17 years back and have loaded up on Real Estate and crypto since then. ENjoy staying poor!
I did something like this but piped the noise into some vents as well and I played loud ass chimp sounds.
**One video was of window baffles/inserts. Can you rig some ceiling baffles that work as well? I do love that Instant Karma Machine, too. You'll need much equipment.
