When my previous neighbor moved out from the apartment next to me, it remained vacant for about a year or so. She was a nice lady though. Quiet for the most part... hardly knew she was around.

Then this new asshole neighbor from hell moves in. He (or she- haven't seem them yet) must work a late shift... they come in and it is just an avalanche of noise and disturbance until "it" finally goes to sleep. Blenders going, kitchen cabinets being slammed. Closet doors opening and slamming shut. Every foot step can be heard. Keep in mind these apartments aren't very big- approx. 709 sq. ft. I can't possibly imagine where all the walking is leading to. It literally sounds like a herd of elephants over there.

Now I have a dilemma. It's not my style to "rat" anyone out. I'd prefer not to bring in the landlord or go to the police. I believe in dealing with issues one-on-one. But the problem is that this issue has quickly escalated past mildly irritating to beyond infuriating. I have no desire to talk about this peacefully at this point. I have been able to refrain to this point from going over there because I know all I want to do is punch this inconsiderate asshole in the face.
