Bright idea
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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the couple with three noisy toddlers in the apartment above mine finally moved out. A couple with a non-stop crying newborn moved in. FML
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, 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
Today, I almost got fired from work because a customer complained that I "threw up gang signs" at him. I was blocking the sun from my eyes. FML
Today, I woke up to a broken car window and a text from my ex that read, "Before you ask me, the answer is yes." FML
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
Today, I woke up next to my roommate staring in horror. She said I was singing and farting in my sleep. Loudly. FML
Today, my car got keyed because I was parked in a handicapped parking spot. I'm handicapped. FML
Today, I was pulled over by a cop. He told me one of my lights was busted, and I couldn't help but point out that one of his was out too. He said, "Thanks, I'll get that fixed right away." then gave me a ticket. 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.
