Today, my neighbor installed a large radio that loudly plays Christmas music 24/7. When I called in a complaint to the police department they told me to, "get in the Christmas spirit." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I called the cops on my elderly neighbor for blaring loud war music yet again. They chatted and laughed with him on his lawn for a good half hour. As they left, he slapped the female officer's ass, only for her to just giggle about it. After they drove off, he fired up his music again. FML
Today, my neighbor got a ridiculous surround sound system that sounds like Jurassic fucking Park come to life. My walls are literally shaking. I tried asking nicely for them to turn it down. They told me to fuck off, and that if I call the cops with a noise complaint, well… they know where I live. FML
Today, my neighbors coated their house in flashing Christmas lights and blared out "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" all day long. Only 29 days left until Christmas. FML
Today, I've suffered 3 months of my neighbor blasting his music so loud, it shakes my apartment floor. None of my noise complaints are ever followed up, but the moment I give him a piece of my mind, he calls the cops, and they threaten me with jail time over a few curse words. FML
Today, my boss insisted that we get in the holiday mood by putting up lights, playing Christmas music, and wearing bells on our uniforms. It's not even Thanksgiving yet and I can't even have a tinkle without full-blown jingling. FML
Today, I came home to find my parents wearing Santa hats and blasting Christmas music at full volume. So begins three months of hell. FML
Today, I finally got tired of my neighbors constantly blaring their obnoxious rap music all hours of the day and night. Trying to be funny, I put Baby Shark on a loop and turned my speakers all the way up. They called the cops on me. FML
Today, at my four-year-old daughter's insistence, I looked for - and found - a radio station that plays "Santa music" all year round. She's ecstatic and I can't turn it off without upsetting her. FML
Today, my neighbors put up their Christmas lights. They blink red and green on and off. Ever since they put them up, my dog hasn't stopped barking. It's 2:00AM. FML
Today, my new neighbor just put up really loud wind chimes. I just got a ton of letters under my door, stating if I don't take them down, they're going to file a noise complaint with the building management. She owns her condo, I don't. FML

Revenge. Loudly play gangnum style. That might eventually stop them

Simple Solution: Blast Gangnam Style back at your neighbors 24/7. They'll lose their Christmas spirit in a hurry. Edit: Damn you 4 and your wizardry

Just do like I would, go up and cut they're wires to the speaker if its outside speakers, if inside speakers, put a guitar amp on an extension card and put it up to the window closest to the speakers, the reverb off the amp will most likely send the whole house outside to escape

Seems like we have similar problems. My neighbors have a Santa that pops out of a chimney and says "Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas". Sorry OP.

I had to live with that.... My dad did the same thing. Except we had no neighbors to call and complain so it just went on and on.

Op have you trying knocking on your neighbors door and asking him to turn it down.

I don't blame you. But I'm generous and say after Thanksgiving.

#29: I think execution is a bit harsh. How about just send them to a rehabilitation centre to teach them the dangers of the consumerism that is so prominent during this season? (I know that comment was a joke, but I just want to bring up a serious issue here.)

Not surprisingly, I see some comments here insulting OP and calling him such names as Scrooge or the Grinch. All I can say to that is bah, humbug. What people call Christmas spirit, these days, I just call mindless consumerism. Certainly far from the peace and good will that was once associated with Christmas.

Try lots and lots of vodka

Why would this get rated as a ydi? There's a fine line between having a Christmas spirit and his neighbor being an inconsiderate douche. I'd be pissed if I had to hear crappy music when I'm trying to sleep or go about my day.
