I hate to drag the courtesy officer out this late. Building manager? Property office.... but they're not open right now.
I have no clue what language it is to be honest............ Jeep? I missed something. |

Pissed off female is a universal concept and requires no language.
He'll understand. |

Drill down almost through to his ceiling and then let water drip in. Eventually the water builds up under the latex paint like a big balloon and then it bursts soaking him. Although a good manager will figure the water came from you. Drill hole and drip stinky stuff into his clothes closet.

I would say call the manager. The manager can them call him and tell him to turn it down. Make sure you tell the manager that if he doesn't resolve the issue permanently, you'll find him in violation of your lease agreement, since most states require that a landlord provides a safe rental environment free of nuisance. Repeated status violations wouldn't be a safe environment in my opinion. YMMV.

At exactly 7am (which is when most noise ordinances end) crank up the volume in your place and leave for the day.
Let him know you'll respect his sleep schedule when he starts respecting yours. |

During the day I'll battle him with volume and generally win. However, to do it non-stop the entire day would only make more people suffer... i. e. my next door neighbor and the people across the hall with 2 kids. I'm not that mean. |

Hey jackass, knock knock, the officer gets a minimum of half his rent paid if not all of it to handle these issues for you. Just kidding about the jackass part. My mom and stepdad both are in apartments. As in managment and maintanence. It's their job make them handle it. |

It is not uncommon for apartments to have a centrally-located circuit breaker panel.

Go to a local sporting goods store and buy some skunk or raccon piss cover scent. Every morning on the way to work poor a little bit in front of his door and on his door knob. The smell will get onto his hands and feet as he enters and leaves his apt. Hopefully he will track it inside his place and stink it up too. It may not really help the volume situation but damn, it will make you feel a little better.

A little of the high octane OC Bear Spray on the door knob morning, noon and night might send a message. Accidently dropping the can and having it discharge underneath the door might send the message faster

Go to a bar and find some interesting, large, rednecks or bikers to help.
Bascially their job is to knock on the neighbor's door and educate him about the fact that they will shove the stereo up his ass if the volume doesn't stay at a civil level around the clock, seven days a week. A six pack each is probably way sufficient pay for some guys hapy to help out a gal. If the turd is Middle Eastern, it's probably gratis. |

There are several things you can do, but one I'd suggest is getting that courtesy officer or apt manager over to deal with it at all hours. They will be so sick of dealing with it at 1am that they will tell the guy they will evict him.
And, find that circuit breaker panel, find out which is his, and flip it off every time he cranks his music. |

DING! DING! DING! This is the correct answer. As long as you live in a situuation where you do not control both sides of your walls, this will continue to happen in one way or another. Consider each little hassle as motivation to sock away the $$$ toward a down payment. |

Got a basketball? If not, then buy one. They cost about $5 for a cheap one.
Everytime the volume on his shit goes up, practice your dribbling. Believe me, it won't take long! edited to add: Whoops, just saw Rodent's post.

Any other neighbors affected? Well, you could all go to the property manager's office as a group and demand it be made clear at which time the music goes OFF in his apartment.
-or- What language does he speak if you can determine? You could put together an informational note for him and translate it into his language online, print it out and give it to him. Google has the major languages here www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en Polish here: www.poltran.com/ Altavista does Russian, too: babelfish.altavista.com/ -or- Go to his door wearing an AR15 shirt and a loaded magazine in your hand - in fact use the magazine to knock on his door. When you knock on the door, knock once per second and do not stop until he opens the door. He'll then know what it feels like to hear the bass sounds continuously thumping. Make it a point that you're not happy with the loud music. -or- The sheeple answer would be to put in a set of earplugs and deal with it. (I'm pretty sure you won't be doing this - right?) -or- Host an Arfcom party. There's plenty of us that'd be more than happy to show up and have a talk with the guy in exchange for sammiches

Do what my obnoxious UPSTAIRS neighbor used to do:
Vacuum and wear bricks on your feet at 3am in the morning. No shit. They would vacuum and at least stomp around and hit all the walls and furniture with the friggen machine. I never knew them or made any noise myself, and gone 90% of the time. |

Hmm... I know a girl who works at a restaurant in my patrol area who's from there. Wonder if besides English, she knows one of South Africa's other official languages Afrikaans, English, Zulu, Xhosa, Ndebele, Venda, Swati, Sesotho, Sepedi, Tsonga and Tswana. So what do your neighbors speak? |
