Today, I woke up to people in the parking lot screaming "everybody wake up". They've been doing this at 7 every morning since I moved in 3 months ago. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after months of peace and quiet since January, a new family moved into the apartment below me ten minutes before I was about to go to sleep. They've been here for 30 minutes and already they're stomping and banging doors all over the place. FML
Today, just like every other day, I was woken up 2 hours earlier than I needed to be, by the alarm belonging to my upstairs neighbors. They won't wake up until their real alarm goes off: me, pounding the walls and yelling in frustration. FML
Today, and for the past two weeks, the people living directly above me have decided to add rearranging their furniture to their daily routines. Not only that but apparently, 6 a.m. is the most optimal time for them. FML
Today, a group of protesters set up just outside my residence hall at one in the morning. After an hour of chanting, the police finally told them to stop, and I was finally able to get some sleep. The protesters responded by pulling the fire alarm in every residence hall on campus. FML
Today, the cops showed up at my work because people were fighting in the parking lot. This is a nightly occurrence. FML
Today, just like every workday for the last 6 months, the construction workers in my building made loud noises in the morning and woke me up almost 2 hours before I would otherwise have to get up. This will continue for one more year. I'm not a morning person, and I live in a protected historical building. FML
Today, I got woken up by Hallelujah blasting outside my apartment windows for 30 minutes straight. FML
Today, I learned from the noise outside my window that construction workers start their days at 5 AM. FML
Today, some new people moved into the house next door to mine. The previous occupants were very loud and obnoxious day in and day out, so I was looking forward to some sanity. When I went outside, I noticed they'd parked their cars on my lawn. FML
Today, I woke up at 6:00 am to the sound of somebody laying on their horn outside my apartment. I ran outside to yell at them only to find out it was my car. The horn was shortcircuting. All my neighbors stood on their porch laughing as I repeatedly punched my steering wheel to make it stop. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Throw eggs at them, brick shaped eggs, made of brick.

OP you should wake up at six and find somewhere to sit while hiding your paintball gun. Whenever they start yelling take out their happy sacks. Continue each morning. It's not like you will get any sleep either way.

7am!? I wish I could wake up at 7 every morning. I gotta wake up at 4 just to make it to work on time.

i dont think that in court they would allow explanation "Well ofcourse i killed them! They woke me up in the morning!"

They accepted it in my matricide case... :P

Piss balloons.

Smartest idea yet next to hiding with a paintball gun

I doubt it is actually possible to piss balloons, and even then, what would it accomplish?
taradeborde87 3
I think it would be possible, I am not speaking from experience, but I imagine it would be about the same as making water balloons.

Call the cops. If that backfires then pour gasoline on them and chase them with a lighter. :)

well FYL although u could just move apartments...or put the pillow over your head ? it works every time :)

So instead of asking them to stop, calling the police or talking to the landlord, they should just pick up and move? Yes, that does seem like the most logical solution...

As long as they take the weekends off, you're fine. 7am (or earlier) is a pretty standard wake-up time for the average functioning individual in society.

With the average jobs being weird shifts these days... No

Steady jobs Monday-Friday normally require a person to be at work by around 9am where I live - including getting ready, and the commute around here, 7am is perfectly normal (if not late) to wake up. It's all relative.

I work 2nd shift. You wake me up at 7am, and youll be lookin at the business end of my 40 cal...

In my original post I said "average functioning individual" in which I meant those that had early morning jobs. I was initially excluding those that work graveyard shifts (and before anyone takes offense, I do not mean that makes these people any less of a functioning individual).
crownlogic 25
Nobody said you had to be anything. I just noted a common standard in my area.

I'm a tutor so I don't wake up till 10 or 11. Kids aren't out of school till 2-3 so I'm set. If someone woke me at 7... There would be blood.

Why not follow them home one day, and then pay them a nice midnight visit with a foghorn. Every night. They'll get the message eventually.
