Today, my neighbors got a motion sensor light that points at my window. It's so sensitive that it goes off every time an insect flies past. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I realized the reason my neighbor keeps smiling awkwardly at me is because I’ve been waving enthusiastically at their security camera every morning, thinking it was a motion-activated light. FML
Today, I can’t sleep because the moon is full. No, wait, that’s actually the floodlight from the neighboring farm shining in my window. Apparently, they thought it a good idea to hook the thing up to a motion detector, so the cats and mice can play disco lights at midnight. FML
Today, my neighbor, who has 4 video cameras pointed at the front of my house, got a drone that’s now hovering over my backyard. FML
Today, I installed motion sensor lights in my house to save on energy. When I laid down in bed, I saw the lights turn on from downstairs to the kitchen. I live alone. FML
Today, the neighbor's dog has been barking for over 5 hours. It is barking directly at my window. FML
Today, I learned that my new neighbour's car alarm goes off every time a car drives by blasting loud bass. So far, it's gone off 6 times in the last hour. I can't wait until he's done moving in here, where he and his car will stay for the next year. FML
Today, after coming home from school, I found that two birds had made a nest above the porch light. This wouldn't be a problem if they stopped attacking me every time I get within 5 feet of them. FML
Today, my neighbors left for their nine month excursion, and armed their security system. One of the features is a loud series of three beeps every three seconds, 24 hours a day. I can hear it, clear as a bell, throughout my entire house. FML
Today, I fell asleep on the couch. My parents didn't wake me up, went to bed and set our burglar alarm. If I trip a motion sensor, a siren will go off. The motion sensor in my living room is pointed directly at me and I have to pee. It's been 2 hours. FML
Today, about to fall asleep, a bug started buzzing behind the screen to my window. Losing my sanity, I punched the screen, forgetting all about the glass. I now have a cracked window and one still annoying bug. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That wasn't an insect. It was a ninja.

Get some curtains or move your bed so the light doesn't bother you.

Can't trust those damn insects, flying about like they own the place!

Lakeview Terrace comes to mind. Your neighbor wouldn't happen to be a cop with a bad reputation would he?

Looks like its time to buy a pellet gun.

Replace your window with a mirror and make sure the light hits your neighbours' bedroom window.

Break his light or redirect the beam when they rnt there

It points at your window but it's on THEIR house, so just think how much more annoying it is for them every time it goes off. I think they'll likely remove it on their own.

Well, generally, you point a motion light AWAY from your house, so the neighbors are most likely oblivious to the fact that it's driving OP crazy.

Ugh, my neighbors have a bright light in one of their windows (inside the house) that they just NEVER TURN OFF and my blinds can't shut it out. And in my old house my window faced the streetlight. I feel your pain bro and/or sister. :(

Your houses must be very close together.

wait until they go out and either break the globe, spray paint over it or remove it

and why do they have it pointed at your window exactly? are they like the neighborhood snitch, and you're the one who always sneaks out the window at night? lol.
