Today, after my annoying neighbor who used to spend hours playing the cello in the apartment below me finally moved out, I found out that I have a new musical neighbor moving in. This fellow plays the bagpipes. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, our new neighbour three doors up just moved in, he even came round to introduce himself to everyone to assure us he means to be a good neighbour, and won’t be too noisy. Six hours later we found out he’s Scottish and likes to practise his bagpipes in the back garden. FML
Today, it appears that my upstairs neighbour has decided to learn how to play the trombone. FML
Today, my next door neighbor took up playing the flute as a new hobby. Unfortunately, he's very enthusiastic about actually practising it. It's been 3 hours and counting. FML
Today, a week after moving into my new house, I'm seriously considering suing the previous occupant. He failed to mention how the neighbor has his own band and rehearses every other day until 2am. Their music is so bad, it sounds like the wailing of a cat being tortured to death. FML
Today, I found out my upstairs neighbor is a drummer. He's actually quite good, so I didn't have the heart to report a noise complaint. That is, until he screamed Ringo Starr's infamous line, "I got blisters on my fingers!" at the top of his lungs after playing them too long. I would have laughed if it wasn't 2AM. FML
Today, I moved into a lovely basement suite. Unfortunately, the 12 year old upstairs plays violin. She also plays baritone. She said she alternates each day. FML
Today, my neighbor's kid started learning the violin. 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, the guy on the floor above me decided it was time for a tuba jam session. Apparently optimal tuba time is 2am. FML
Today, after my old downstairs neighbor, who would come upstairs to bang on my door and yell at me every time she heard a sound from me at all times of the day, had finally moved out, it became clear that my new downstairs neighbor gets drunk and yells at the TV in the early hours of the morning. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

The only reasonable solution: Buy a trumpet.

I think drums would be the best solution. Don't actually learn to play, just bang the shit out of them. Oh...and get lots of cymbals too.

You should be pleased, the bagpipes are awesome.

You deserve it for not enjoying the cello.

4: I now see why this comment is so irritable. Judging by your profile, you lack the intelligence to realize that one neighbor moved out, and another moved in. Nice attempt of a game reference, but you fail. Oh, by the way, nice job having a kid and fiance at 14 years old.

Buy either A: a drum set B: a guitar with a super loud and powerful amp. C: a bass with a super loud and powerful amp. Or D: All three

You may have to crank your stereo up on a regular basis. Seriously, isn't there some kind of rules about noise?

Personally, I would have enjoyed the cello. Bag pipes on the other hand...
