Hey you! You guys in the house on Duncan Street! You student guys who rented the house surrounded by family homes! Families with small children… children who go to bed at 8 pm on week nights. Children who can’t sleep when you’re blasting Mambo Number 5 as loud as it will go and singing along at the top of your lungs!
I know they probably showed you Animal House during frosh week, and you probably think everyone will think you’re just the BEST when they see how hard you can party… on Wednesday afternoon. But why don’t you hit up the books, and turn down the volume, so the rest of us can get some sleep. Cause I gotta work in the morning, MY mom doesn’t pay my rent. —If You Don’t Shut Up I Swear to God…

Call the police. Often.
Or else get some big friends to go over and have a friendly chat.
Otherwise you’re stressing yourself.
Ask them to turn it down. If that doesn’t work tell them to turn it down or you will call the police. You really don’t need a little bit of Mary all night long.
What is with all these bitches that could be resolved so easily? Call the fuzz! Also, chew your food before swallowing and clean the excess fecal matter from around your anus after defecating.
The landlords for the buildings behind mine seem to not be picky when renting, and we’ve got a bunch of hooligan students moved in there. You can hear them yelling like drunken idiots on the weekends. It’s not a huge problem, at the moment, but if it keeps up, I might be inclined to go over there and ring their super.
There are noise by laws in Halifax, OP. Call the coppers. They seem to thrive on this shit, rather than the hard-hitting stuff (hay let’s prioritize noise complaints over catching little punks who beat old people up with table legs!).
Also, calling their landlord might help, too.
And don’t worry, mommy isn’t paying their rent — they’re likely on student loans, so they’ll get theirs when they get to pay back all the money they pissed away on booze and good timez when they graduate. Plus interest.
a power meter is real easy to unplug from the base. you only need a screwdriver, to loosen one screw on the ring, then pop it out and lose it.
Mambo Number 5? Christ there’s no hope for them anyhow. Call the Police have them charged for playing shit.
Burn ’em. Burn ’em all.

I like the cut of that reference’s jib.
record their noise, and fire it right back at them while they are trying to sleep.
Isn’t there a legal time to make noise and a time when you have the right to call the cops once the noise is too much? The landlord for my build calls the cops on people for making too much noise after 11pm.
OB, call the police if their noise is in violation of the noise bylaws. Encourage your neighbors to also complain.
Like everyone said: call the damn cops you tool! If they keep it up and you call the cops enough times, they can get evicted and they’ll go back to living at mom’s.
tere is no real legal time to make noise, miss pinky. but the by law shut off is 11 p.m. that has not changed as far as i know. after that, their ass is up for grabs, so to speak.
call the cops a lot, maybe they or the cops will get the idea, that it is time to keep it down. if that fails, use plan i already outlined above.works everytime, and costs them money to keep having meters replaced.
Good to know LS. I wasn’t sure but I was pretty sure after 11 it was suppose to be quiet. I feel sorry for the kids who had to listen to drunks sing Mambo Number 5. That could give them nightmares.
What number on Duncan? I may be able to point you in the direction of the owner…
according to this link, the fine is min 125$ max 10,000$.
AND, there is no curfew or exempt time of day for a “public address system”
http://www.halifax.ca/legislation/bylaws/h…
There are more rules against blaring music at 3am than there are at blaring music at 7am.
I will leave the connections to you to make.
nope, sorry, we’re not interested in playing any connection game, either state your case or don’t.
First world problems?? lol
