I vote for overlooking it unless and until it becomes a common occurrence and goes on for awhile.

Just go over to them and be honest. No reason to be an ass about it. What about the other neighbors that may not like F bombs or goat roper music? Now you're being that same classless person that you're whining about.
This world, full of sissified pansies.

2ndly, voices carry. Even over acreage and water. What not just turn on some gentle music for yourself to enjoy and maybe you’ll hear less of the conversations of your neighbors.
And C, With few exceptions, everyone I know, and have met since moving here, cuss like sailors. Spicy language. I love it!

Eventually you will meet some of the other 99% that live here.

I agree. AND.

I wonder just how often this happens? Once a week? More? As others say, as soon as it gets really hot, it will stop.

It is best to get along with back door neighbors. They can watch out for your property when you are gone and be there if you need someone close by quickly in an emergency.

Sometimes just getting to know them makes them be aware and CARE that they may be bothering you.

I agree almost all of the people I know do not use this language.

Isn't that disturbing the peace? I would report them.

How sad it is that a place with this potential does not have any standards, no controls and will stand by and let stuff such as this go on,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and on ,,,,,,,,,, and on.

It is becoming so well known, people are getting a bit riled up.
We have had it first hand, now one of their trees is causing a real mess beyond description, but they will not respond. OH, someone will call you? SURE.

And we wonder why there will never be peace! Yes children reside in friendly town. Try open communication... or just copy your post tape to door. BTW this Northern person has learned Bless your heart on either side of a statement is nothing more than a sarcastic insult.

Shortly after moving into my house I was having a phone conversation with my son. I told him that an unexpected pleasure was how quiet my appliances and heating system is. He said, "Dad, did you forget that you no longer hear very well?"

Maybe you'll get lucky like me and your backdoor neighbors will slowly get quieter like my refrigerator.

[shortsaler]

Have you tried a peaceful resolution yet? Like going over to their house and actually having a civil conversation? Just sayn'!!

[Hifred]

If they knew their language was offensive to you they might be e more thoughtful. They might not be tuned into the fact that the homes are so close that every word can be over heard. You can say something to the effect of Hi I am so and so. I am your neighbor who lives behind you. How are you enjoying your new home...etc. After exchanging pleasantries; let them know ----You probably don't realize that living so close your voices and conversations along with the cursing is loud enough to be heard. Playing loud music is a deliberate disturbance. If you are from an area where you used to have a large yard and did not have neighbors living in close proximity you may not be aware of how your language negatively impacts others. I would start out by assuming the best and hoping that a gentle conversation would help rather than blasting loud music. That will disturb all the others who live around you as well as these neighbors.

Southerners saying bless their heart after a jab....That is a joke. Meant to be humor, how people talk in certain areas. People from the South are not stupid or mean hearted. People from the North are not stupid or mean hearted and ditto from the coasts and middle part. SOME of them are but it doesn't take a house to fall on us to know who they are. You usually get what you give and what goes around comes around no matter how you phrase it.


Could you explain what the highlighted above means?

Children aren't allowed to live here. That doesn't mean we don't love children. Most of us. Bless their hearts.

[Villagesgal]

For Pete's sake. Ask them to to be it down and they probably will. Mention that you can hear every word and that they should be aware that you are privy to all their family problems. If that doesn't work play classical music loud enough to cover their voices. Good luck.

[PennBF]

I remember many years ago when we lived in a rather exclusive area of our city and we were burdened with a neighbor who had no respect for quiet living. Our son was into music, recordings, etc etc. We had an original sound effect tape that came with a prerecording to demonstrate multiple sound. He hooked this up to the sound effects, opened the window on their side of the house and played what was a very loud sound effect of a train going through the openings between out homes. End of loud noise.!!

[Joyce Paul]

Really? The fact that posting here says that southerners are better or nicer or more respectful pretty much says it all. I am from the north and I don't feel I am any better or worse than a southerner. Maybe it is that attitude that has made them act like they do. Shame on anyone talking about others like that. If they are bad don't blame all northerners for that. Geez!!!
