My noisy neighbours started cranking up the their music right up after midnight and I was getting next to no sleep . They were 3 guys who at a later time all ended up doing some time in the slammer for something unrelated .
Anyway one day I was lying on the couch thinking about my sleep problem . My Twighlight Zone was in my peripheral vision , when all of a sudden I focused right in on It . I walked up to it , turned It on , opened the coin door .
I went through the menu to the Sound Tests . Cycling through It my intention was to find the most annoying sound if played loud on Repeat
I Short listed 2 . One was the guy calling out " Noooooooooo " every few seconds in a spooky , angry voice .
Second choice was glass smashing also every few seconds . It was a close call . I flipped a coin and went with the glass smashing .
Any way , come the weekend around 8 or 9am when my loud neighbours had been to sleep for probably just a few hours , I chose to go out . But before i went , I cycled through the Sound Tests until I came across the glass , hit the repeat , turned It up to 20 something and left the building pretty quickly as It ws too loud for my ears . I returned around noon to anticipate a possible confrontation by you know who .
I waited and waited some more but nothing came my way .
In fact I never heard one note of music again from them for the next few months they lived there .
Apart from learning my new best friend was Twighlight Zone , I also learnt ( in my mind at least ) , that IN LIFE YOUR BEST NEIGHBOUR IS ALWAYS YOUR FENCE
