Listening to a party one of my neighbours are having, would be nice if they don't keep dragging it till like 3 in the morning. But they seem like fun to hang around, so I can't really complain.

Do they invite you to their parties?  :orly:

Nope, I'll probably should attend uninvited.  :orly:

I'm surprised they dont. The best way to keep neighbors from complaining about party noise, is to invite them to the party.  :zoinks:

if they're drunk enough you probably could show up uninvited. Although not sure I'd recommend it. lol

Very little. A few birds making noise, an occasional commuter train.

Quiet ambulance departing. Noisy when it arrived about an hour ago.
Out on our neighborhood watch patrol, just before sun up, LOTS of activity and sirens. After checking on an elderly, one neighbor dialed 911.
We lost the lovely eighty something to a heart attack overnight.

Its that time of year, when the "yahoos" express their assholiness with big booms and other stupidities.

Been hearing them for the last 4 days here. The rednecks seem restless lately.

probably Midsummer's Day celebrations?
we had fireworks displays here in the UK  four days ago, for Midsummer.  I guess that in the US,  some folk might think " We might as well roll it in with July 5th and keep the cebrations going" Kinda like that protracted Christmas/New Year festival.

In any case, I swear we only had fireworks once per year (on Guy Fawkes night) when I  was a kid. Then New years Eve fireworks started up, then Diwali fireworks, then Ramadan fireworks ..oh! and Chinese New Year ofc,  every other asshole's birthday , I've given up trying to keep track . Fireworks are ever-less exciting and ever-more  annoying. Or is it just that i'm getting old? Anyway, it's now long past the point where there's just no guessing when you 're gonna need  to keep your cats, dogs and granny safely shut indoors for the night.   :rollingpin:

It happens here too when firework holidays fall in the middle of the week. The weekends before and after are noisy.  :dunno:

We have loud fireworks here at all times of the year, as we have a large Pakistani community, some of whom - for reasons unknown - feel the need to include earth shaking fireworks and idiots hiring high powered sports cars to bomb around the streets in for pretty much any event (weddings, religious holidays, birthdays, etc etc). Unfortunately the lodge at the top of the road was sold a couple of years ago and now appears to be used as a functions venue by the Pakistanis. Happy happy joy  ::)

*slightly related anecdote - one of these idiots hired a VERY expensive Lamborghini for a celebration from a backstreet hire firm. Said moron wrote the fucker off driving like a cunt in Bradford city centre... Apparently the dodgy insurance arrangement used by the shady hire company involved a *very* large excess. They turned up on his doorstep with the boys demanding £40k towards the wreckage. He had to sell his mother's jewellery. True story. :lol1:

That must have been a life changing experience for the poor guy. He shouldn't have driven like a cunt in first place but I guess he saw it coming. Thankfully his mother's jewellery covered that but still, that's a huge loss right there.

It's not a rare occurence here sadly. At least he lived to learn from the experience, a number of young lads die every year in the city racing or otherwise showing off in cars they don't have the skill/experience/temperament to handle safely, or their passengers, or people who get in their way. The city has a toxic car culture; googling 'bradford' and 'driving' should be illuminating if you haven't heard the stories.  :bangbang:
