Sounds like you need a trip to the toy store. Get a cap gun and several rings of caps and just unload randomly. Maybe then he'll know the difference in sound volume between poking holes in plastic and explosions.

Had a neighbor like this once. Called the cops on us for "clapping." The cops were not amused. Needless to say, we made it a point to stomp around as much as possible during normal hours just to piss on their cereal.

The kind of person who needs to actually hear the real thing once. It is hard to mistake a 40 decibel pop for a 140 decibel gunshot.

That's a dick move on his part. Hope you got that sorted with the cops and they fined his ass for abuse of emergency services.

I am soo glad I don't have neighbors!!!!

How loud could that sound have been for him to hear it.

One simple word, so much fun: Popcorn.

My neighbor told my landlord I was "smoking drugs" after I had burned some chicken nuggets late at night.
