GIMME GIMME GIMME, DON'T ASK WHAT FOR
Whats the point in having walls when you can hear everything, its pretty stupid. People pay money for this??

Every staccato of a fart ,every damp thrust into a vag being diddled
a radio on

Unless of course you live in your parents basement or some lovely redneck house in the middle of nowhere....might as well literally live in glass houses my friens, in the harsh world that is the city ??

Anybody hear anything good right now? im gonna go eat a swiss and chorizo sandwich over the sink to further ferment my inner chaos whereupon i will fart loudly out of hate in my sleep. Then maybe have a frantic wake wank as my neighbor listens.

For example, I doubt you can hear bonobos chittering in the trees in a south american jungle or a chinese couple fighting about a dumpling recipe half way around the world.

I do live in a lovely building but it's surprisingly quiet.

Although there used to be kids on my hall who would ride power wheels up and down the hallway while crying.

I now live in a nice detached brick house, but I have lived in some shitholes in the past. Well the apartments themselves were nice, but the internal walls were so thin I reckon that if I took a run up I could go straight through 3 flats in a row, Juggernaut style.

All I can hear right now is the wind outside, the fan on my pc, and my dog snoring. Sorry for your pain OP

I just tried to let out a silent one and it came out as some sort of grotesque embarrassment of a trumpet so im pretty sure my girl friendish person and her flat mate heard it. all i can do now is act liek a true manly man who doesnt care about anything, not even farting. but theyre british so theyre probably terrified. ifart. pissssss.

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
Yeah. My walls are drywall and 2x4s and the empty blacknes of spaaaaace. I hear my upstairs neighbors when the stumble and the older woman to my side whenever her tv is on. She used to live in a house and got pissy at first whenever my friend, who lives on the other side of her, had his tv at a volume that you could understand what people on it were saying from ten feet away in his own apartment. We both got somewhat friendly with her and finally convinced her that you are simply not going to get a noise free existence in cheap apartment.

One of the things that changed her mind was once when she knocked to bitch, we showed her how low we had the tv on (it was loving low) and then I asked how she was liking the second to last episode of downton abbey, which she had been watching on her side of the posterboard wall.

I often wonder if she could sleep in manhattan, as sensitive to sound as she is. Even 20 floors up in a nice rear end hotel room, the sirens and other noise are constant. Having lived in an apartment for years, I just blank that kinda poo poo out. If you need absolute silence though, some fancy apartments are seperated by concrete firewalls. Only bass will get through those fuckers.

As far as noise I make, I still have to move around in here and cook and poo poo but in terms of media: headphones, bitches.

I lived in a duplex where I could hear my neighbor set his keys down on his desk upstairs in his room while I was in the living room downstairs. Even rolling over in his bed 20 feet away sounded like he was in the room with me, it made me aware of every noise I made, how every word I said on the phone could be heard. After a few months he started banging on the walls and yelling insults at me when he had friends over. I work mornings and he didn't, so I'm sure a few months of my alarm going off finally set him off.

Back when I used to have roomies me and my buddy got a place with a master bedroom, which he ended up getting. The dude in the master above him was a sexual athlete. I got the better deal there.

i used to get black out drunk daily with my friend, and one day my other friend came in the building and said he could hear us clearly 3 storeys down since i live beside the staircase.

I've been living in fear for 2 years wondering who's heard

It seems like every place I ever lived was beneath a young woman who wore heels in the house and clomped around the place all hours of the night.
Then I lucked into a place with concrete between floors and I have decided I will never ever leave this place.
I do have a neighbor who likes to pretend he's Chris Cornell, which he is most definitely not, but that's a fair trade-off.

The one thing I can still hear above me is a sound like someone dropping marbles on the floor.
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT AND WHY DO I HEAR IT EVERYWHERE I GO???

Same but the ever present drunk yelling is externally sourced from the streets.
