NYC and Belmar, NJ noise ordinances...thank CHRIST!
This will NOT be a blog bitching about the out-of-control police issuing ridiculous tickets. Rather, I am ELATED to have read this week about both NYC and Belmar, NJ getting tough with MADDENINGLY disruptive assholes. Do NOT tell me to move to a farm if I want peace. My fucking quality of life is being eroded by the day by NOISE. It's ironic, actually...AS I write this, I am infuriated yet again by a POLICE siren. THEY are part of the problem...don't tell me they must ALWAYS have their siren on. Just because I live in an urban area doesn't mean I should expect to be assaulted CONSTANTLY by noise. What it boils down to, as always, is 1) common sense and 2) the general population's complete lack thereof...along with ANY sense of respect for others' peace and quiet. The NYC story mentioned an ice cream truck now HAVING to stop THAT FUCKING SONG from playing once they're parked in a residential nabe. YAY! The Belmar story came with a picture of an officer lecturing yet another tangled-haired, short-shorts-wearing, beer-in-one-hand, cell-to-the-ear-in-the-other FUCKING WHORE to keep her voice down. I HAD a beach house...for THREE years...and you know what? I fucking knew how to behave in my early and mid 20s, let alone OLDER. Being young and being drunk is ZERO excuse for being a loud asshole. So this isn't the ranting of a Respectable 30-something who doesn't know how to have fun. I felt the SAME way when I was twenty-one. I am so absolutely NOT amused by drunken noise. The fucking cunt in the porch photo should have either her cell or the police officer's cock shoved down her fucking throat to shut her up. Yes, I mean that. Ugh, how ANYONE finds Belmar an attractive summer option is beyond me. But it's so much more than loud voices. It's car horns, car ALARMS (perhaps the most likely culprit when I eventually snap), jackhammering, any kind of construction work, barking dogs, THE TELEPHONE, music, and so much more. It's any one of the roommates i've had stomping up the stairs without lifting their feet at 3am, WHILE they talk at the top of their lungs on their cell, and after they've slammed the front door, BLISSFULLY unaware that there's two other families living in this house who just MIGHT be woken up by their thoughtless idiocy. MY "favorite" is perhaps any kind of GENERATOR. You canNOT sit in my parents' yard when the asswipe next door's pool generator is "humming." Ditto the infuriation caused by MY next door neighbor's bathroom vents as I sit RIGHT here. They are UNGODLY loud. And, so, TICKET away, I say! If people are too stupid or desensitized to realize when they're being OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD, hit them in their wallet. Hell, jail them! I am FED UP not being able to THINK or SLEEP because of some kind of NOISE. People NEED, apparently, to be taught anew how to behave in this society.
