All my neighbors are nice, except the next door woman. She's reported me for noise nuissance because my daughter had a playdate at 7 pm!!

Yet, Saturday she has her boyfriend come over, and their humping is louder than Fire trucks. But like clockwork, at 12 at midnight they always have a bad fight -- screaming and yelling, and throwing things. Sometimes, it sounds like wrestling too. He leaves and slams her door. The whole Building shakes. It rarily fails.

She has a large dog too, which she calls "the beast." This dog is uncontrollable and happy to jump on you. I almost called animal control on her too. She's been in the Building before me, and I have discussed the matter with Management, and noise meters is the next thing left to do.

You should record them if it's that loud and play it back for her. Maybe she'll get embarrassed and tone the love-making down a bit for you.

@JayData - let me enlighten you. I know when you are at Duane Reade from 12pm to 2pm in Midtown Manhattan and can see the people online all dressed in business attire. It's safe to say the world is made up of 2 people: The HAVES and Have NOTS. You think the customer that just got rung up by a DR cashier doesn't think in his head after he leaves: My cashier is really beneath me. I hope he/she aspires to do more and make more past the age of 30.

Come on??!!! Let's keep it real shall we.

I have these conversations all the time with coworkers. I'm not rich and I'm not any better saying I'm on my high horse because at work, people that make a certain amount of money only talk to people who make a certain amount of money. It is not tattooed on anyone's forehead, but people know when they see a person's job title. Honestly, at work, people that drive a Ford only associate and go to lunch with other people that drive a Ford. People that drive a BMW only go to lunch with people who drive a Mercedez. It's the way of life and it's common sense. Anyone can see this including Stevie Wonder.

For the most part, I like interacting with my new neighbors versus my old neighbors. Everyone seems cordial and professional and they must if their rent is $1,400.00 a month and they're single. People that have that kind of rent to pay as a single are all professional and we'll mannered...for the most part.

This is not a kind of neighbor I can have coffee with.

I did threaten her with calling the police and a Mental Institution a few years back. I was pissed because when I rented my apartment, my renter called me in the first week to tell me she had already gotten on his grille.

I had to come in and straighten her out. I plan to move to a different apartment soon, and I think my threats should suffice. Although I woundn't hesitate to go ahead and really cause her problems.

@MisterStereoMan - Yeah, i do live with neighbors who make under 75K. The lowest in the building is 45K because that was the minimum requirement to even qualify for the apartment. The person could make more than 45K, but that was the minimum range. So far everyone is nice except for the people who told me they smoke weed.

But don't you enjoy a little diversity? Perhaps someone earning less than you is an aspiring actor, a writer, a painter, a protester, someone with a disability, one that could happen to anyone even you or me, perhaps an immigrant who is hard-working and may one day make 10 times what you do. Why must everyone be so shiny and polished? And if someone were to lose their 75k job and go on unemployment, are they suddenly the unwanted and unwashed in your eyes?
p.s.I wouldn't qualify for your place by a long shot -- I consider myself lucky.
