noisy housemates

LegacyUser

living in a house with a crowd of mates and theres one couple who are our friends but are starting to piss us off slightly

they're at it like rabbits half the night and again the next morning.
most of us are working nine to five jobs but these two work afternoons and evening so can catch up on their sleep while we're going to work.

its not that the walls are like paper cos we've all had people staying over, i never hear the lad next to me with his girlfriend but i can hear this couple who are two doors down!

we're getting far too musch detail about their sex lives as we can hear every word they say(shout)..and everything else too!

how do we bring this up cos its disturbing everyone else's sleep seven nights a week?

tell them to shut the f**k up or get a new apartment case closedww)

Tell them to stop ****ing so loudly.

What's the problem like?

.logic.

Everytime you hear them from your room, get up and go down the their room, knock on the door and then ask can you join in.

Do this everytime you hear them and they're sure to stop making so much noise eventually.

JohnnyBravo

punch holes in his condoms better still switch his shampoo for glue with a nucly worded note "thanking you for being quiet'
although that could backfire whe they are trying to get the glue out but still funny as hell :cool:

I think this thread is a písstake, but as logic suggested, maybe you could try telling them to shut the fúck up!! Just maybe speaking to them might work! Stranger things have happened.

Unless of course, a manage a trios sounds like a good idea to them
Then you’re screwed (excuse the pun)

Had a similar debate on another board about this.

Either:

Confront one of them over breakfast the morning after and discuss it in depth...
You sure sounded like you were having fun last night, is he any good? Does he use many positions? Which ones? I thought I heard a metal clink there too, did one of you have handcuffs? ad infinitum...

OR:

If your room is next to theirs, yell encouragement through the wall next time they're at it. Suggest what they're doing wrong
Hang on, Dave, she liked that, do it again! That sounds like doggy-style to me! 15 minutes? You wussy! You can do better than that!

Failing that, Mordeth posted up a lovely guide in After Hours some time ago, first published in the 19th century...:D

Tape an episode of Barney. When they commece shaggin put it on in your room full blast. You can be garenteed it'll "quell" the mood. If not they'll probably move out cause they'll think your a lunatic for watchin Barney full blast at 2am.

Wait until they're finished and then shout "Is that it?!?!" loudly.

Teeth.

record them doing it and then play it back as loudly as possible when they're having dinner or whatever. You could even dance around and sing to it.
You could also leave it playing in your room with the door locked and head out to work!

interesting ideas!

its just a hard topic to bring up with your friends.

on the threesome idea, i know the lad would be up for it definately so wont be using that plan

they dont seem bothered that we can all hear every detail, three of us were standing in the door way of the room across from them talking and they kept at it

Sounds like a plan.

Put a mike up to the wall, tape them and play it back loudly when you go to work (ideally burn it to a CD and put it on repeat for the day). Make copies, give them to friends. It won't embarrass him at all (from what you've said) but might do the job on her.

I vote this "Best idea yet"!

Go to pharmacy, buy ear plugs (about 75c per pair, you might get them cheaper). At least you will get some sleep.

Try leaving your radio on all day at a loud setting. Lock bedroom door.

Play very loud orchestral music while they are at it.

I'd like to volunteer/propose Beethoven's 5th symphony (nice and loud) and Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture (it's got cannons dammit, doesn't get any louder) for the task.

Stay away from Bolero. It works nicely up to a louder finish but it's apparently great music for having sex to. The last thing you want to do is help them out, much less encourage it.
