Annoying neighbours

Is this really a problem!?!? I don't mean that to sound rude! I love the smell of cooking!

I had an apartment in college where whenever someone cooked in there, the smells went down the hall and just lingered in my bedroom. I did not enjoy coming home to my room smelling like onions. I went through a lot of air freshener that year.

Mind translating that into American for me?

I'm guessing the smell of boiling pigs trotters isn't very pleasant and probably not welcomed in an apartment! Lol!

I meant, what are pig trotters?

Pigs trotters = pigs feet. You can eat them!

trot....trotters. should have known! I know you can eat them, but why would anyone?

just think of these smells all at one time
fried fish, ham and cabbage,liver and onions alone not bad but all together with air freshener

Yup. The halls are just grody when everyone cooks different things.

Boy, I do not miss apartment living.

I've been off work today with a major sinus headache, no matter where I try to sleep in my house I can hear those bloody children! once is a while the mother shouts hysterically while banging! It's really getting me down

Shoot her. I'd say, "Shoot the kids" but she'd just become a bigger pain. If you shoot the mom, the kids will be loud for a while, but then be quiet for a really long time.

Omg! Love it luv! You can't say that! But I have actually thought of it! I can dream!

Ok so today is my day off, I've had a bad week at work, had a bad sinus headache as well, still suffering a bit. I'm sitting on my couch listening to Bruno Mars again, I know his whole first album now, I hate it, but not as much as I hate my neighbours, they really are ruining the quality of my life.

Ha! Your neighbors don't even compare. Let me make a list about the neighbors on the one side of us:
1. Keep their yard so messy that the leaves blow over onto our property in the fall
2. Left an above ground pool outside for an entire summer even though it's against neighborhood statutes. And they put fish in the pool, which isn't legal where we live.
3. Shot BBs multiple times onto our property.
4. Lied about BBs being biodegradable.
5. Shot paintballs onto our property. After that, we called the police
6. Loud music
7. 27 year old tried to jump out the bathroom window one day until we saw...
8. The one son was drug dealing, which he got caught and arrested for (and pleaded guilty). My dad checked public record on this one. We believe the drug dealing led to some neighborhood thefts
9. Routinely drive too fast up the street, so you have to be extra careful when driving yourself

There are some other things I could list, but you get the picture. We've had to call the cops on them before. It's just not the type of thing you would expect in a normally upscale neighborhood.

EDIT: I forgot. Last fourth of July, they shot fireworks up into the trees. Very bright of them.
