Farts are funny girls - let loose.

Not to be a wet blanket, but I would think us motorcyclists would fall under the boy racer heading :lol:
At least noisy ones anyway.

Still, good to know we aren't SPECIFICALLY being singled out...
Gotta love the 2-step :hug:

You must watch the 4th episode of southparks 13th season.
Or more specifically, a youtube clip titled 'Road Warrior'.

Interesting that it's only the neighbours stereo, DIY and lawnmower noise that gets on their goat and not their own. Fucken hypocrite cunts!

Sports bike riders/Boy racers. All rice.

Pretty much the same breed of spankers.

[McWild]

What, you mean that the sound of things breaking/falling off while riding didn't make it?

There's nothing more annoying than listening to an annoyed person having a whinge.

Well, it may be on the list - depends what your farts sound like, could sound like : boy racer exhausts, barking dogs, snoring, rubbish trucks, babies crying or coughing and humming!

Isn't it ironic that the deaf comissioned this study? Wonder if they wish they could hear all these annoyances? Well apart from AllanB's farts.

Ah you see sir being the upstanding person I am I ensure my farts contain a strong aroma so that the deaf can enjoy them. :woohoo:

[slofox]

I'd have barking dogs at the top of the list...'specially if they bark at night and live across the gully from me...it's gone now...ht. ht. ht.

There's one over there now that barks during the day (not so bad coz I'm at work). All day. Every day. If I was at home all day, I think I might creep over and feed it some chocolate...

[Harvd]

Aw shucks arnt you a nice guy!






Wait...

[DarkLord]

I think snoring is well placed.

There is nothing worse than trying to sleep through snoring, especially with some of the people I've known... they're in their room, and you are down the other end of the hall, about 100 metres or so away, and you can STILL hear 'em.

*shudder*

Perhaps, for really excessive snorers, we could force them to sleep in rooms with loosely fitted chandileirs above the bed, so once the excessive snoring happens, said chandiler falls from the ceiling and lands on them?

Just a thought...

Some of us do mate, and in the most embarrasing places too :o DAMHIK

I beg to differ here, barking dogs are the worst nightmare to live next too.

Barking dogs are certainly at the top of my list. There is a little yapping thing up the back of here that barks all the time, day in/day out, seems it never stops. Not so long ago I was having a longish gas bag with a mate on the phone, the barking finally made me comment. She told me she could hear the dog and we agreed that the dog had been barking non-stop for 45 mins! I rang the owner, who denied it was happening. WTF? Next day this mut was again barking non-stop and amazingly enough the owner came outside and called it in. You will never guess the name of this dog. Angel, if you please. Fuck off more a devil.

Now couple that with the two guard type dogs that live beside us and you have the perfect nightmare situation. I can't walk up the back yard without them barking non-stop at me in my own garden! Yapping mut at back starts up, so barking dogs next door bark back. Perfect :2guns:

People that own dogs that are known to be yappy should make sure that they control them, or keep them company even, or consider not fucken having them at all!

EDIT: I love dogs, have had many over the years. I had to be responsible and leave my dogs when I left my "matrimonial home" when things turned to shit, I could not see them living in town and behaving as they would be expected too. Country dogs bark when they hear cars coming down the road. Fine when the only car coming is heading to your place, not so flash if you are in town and lotsw of cars just drive past.

Just a thought...R6kid and Shrek spring to mind.:zzzz:

Only thing worse than a snorer is when they stop snoring cos you know they aint breathing!

My most hated noise is the neighbor's arguements at ungodly hours. I sometimes wish they would go through with their threats "I'm gunna FUKKIN KILL you!":2guns:

Worst one I ever heard, going back a few years now mind, was a huge domestic next door. Man could those guys fight!

She arrives at my door looking very beat up (finger marks around her throat and black eye beaten up) and upset. After she calmed down she rang the cops and they came to talk to her. Cops go next door, then come back and say he is leaving the house for the night. No charges laid.

Turns out she rammed a broomstick through the laundry wall when he was sitting on the bog having a dump. About took his head off! He was not impressed and came out to show her how not impressed he was! Thank fuck we only lived there for a bit over a year.

Was that the excuse Tony Veitch gave you? :spanking:

Pardon?

Go and have a wee read of my posts concerning Mr Veitch mate.

This is genuine, card carrying true story. Believe it or not, it is not only men that are thugs. Cant speak ill of the dead and all that, so wont take this one further, she is with her maker and hopefully at peace. Best place for her really.

As we can see there's heaps of mouthy bitches out there that need a good backhand now and again :girlfight:

[sunhuntin]

id agree with the barking dogs and snorers... so glad im out of the flat... dont have to put up with the neighbours dog that was not once told the shut the fuck up, even during hours of the morn to early to even consider, and dont have to put with susan sounding like a blardy chainsaw all night every night.

[Goblin]

Worst one I ever heard, going back a few years now mind, was a huge domestic next door. Man could those guys fight!Gotta make ya wonder why these people stay together?!?!:crazy:

I can mostly handle the doof doof music and laughter but usually after 11 they start the agro.:angry2: Can be any night of the week but usually around the full moon.:eek5: and it's mostly her doing the ranting...takes it to the street to let everyone know they're having a domestic. Crazy bitch!

Yepper, this female was scary in the extreme to be fair. Sad though eh?

I dont mind music at all, though have got a tad pissed off at 4am on a Friday morning when the music and the laughing and the landing of bottles in the recycling bin has kept me awake all night. At least the recycle though ;). I went over the next day when I saw them lining up for another session on the front deck, to sort of point out our bedroom was just there. They were about to have a fuckaware party and invited me....LOL

YOURS is covered by post # 4 isn't it? FARTING! :bash:Or is that snoring? No no, I've got it! The DIY noise! Drive belt, gutless engine......compressed air?

[MotoGirl]

I'm surprised the list didn't have the boy racers car stereos, which are so loud they make your building vibrate as they drive past.

[Lissa]

My kids fighting didnt make the list! :woohoo:

I have to say dogs barking late at night are the worse, I can usually sleep through anything but not that!

[Brian d marge]

my wife didn't make the list either .....
