Awkward, Noise and Miscellaneous: Bright idea

Bright idea

By theropod - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, at 2 in the morning, a noisy work crew started up in the parking lot next to my apartment. What were they doing at that ungodly hour? Installing a light that now shines right into my window. FML

Which side are you on?

Today, I woke up to a glorious sunrise, fresh coffee, and a bleached lawn. My neighbors on both sides have constantly fought with each other since before I even moved in, which I guess explains the note taped to my window saying, "Pick a side." FML

Today, I showed up for my first shift in my new night job; I now work at an apartment complex during the day and at a gas station at night. It turns out that our biggest problem tenant in the former happens to be my boss in the latter. FML

Today, while I was inside a store, I heard a crash. Of course I ignored it because my car was parked. I paid for my items and walked out to see this. Nobody else was around. FML

Today, just like every morning this month, I woke up, put on my clothes, looked out my window, and was pointed at by a man in a ninja outfit on my neighbor's roof. The police still can't find him. FML

Creeped out

By emoney - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was walking out of my front door in the town where I intern. I live alone and know no one. As I'm locking the door, I see a golf ball wedged between my mat and step. I notice that there's writing on it so I pick it up to read, "You look hot when you sleep." FML

# 13, YDI for living near black people? That has to be one of the most baseless, asinine comments i've read in a while. What does putting a new streetlight have to do with the racial demographic of the area this person is living in? FYL for being an ignorant moron!

Dont worry theropod this shitty situation is fixable. Get thick curtains, sue, move your bed to another direction etc etc. The possibilities are limitless. When i first read this i laughed cause it reminded me of that episode of 'Married with Children'. Al Bundy faced the same exact problem xD

Get some curtains or blinds. Or better yet, complain. They have to listen; otherwise, you should protest the company and get to the higher ups attention. When all else fails, sue them.

I agree, that would have been the best solution. Or at least the most entertaining.

There are laws which prohibit "noise pollution" and "light pollution". Call the police or the EPA about the construction site — I believe the hours for those sorts of things are from 7am to 10pm.
