'My neighbour does the same thing at 2.30am every weekend and I can't stop him' A person was left gobsmacked thanks to their neighbour doing one bizarre thing at 2.30am every single weekend, and they wondered if they should confront him about it Everyone has a certain level of tolerance for their neighbours. If they have a party or are slightly noisy once in a while, it's usually best just to keep your lips zipped and let it happen. However, if your neighbour was doing the same annoying thing every single weekend at 2.30 in the morning, what would you do? That's the predicament one person found themselves in, because their neighbour was doing something unbelievably anti-social every single weekend in the early hours. They said that they assumed the neighbour worked unusual shifts, but this wasn't an excuse for what he was insisting on doing. They wrote: "I assume my neighbour works midnights. I only think that as his car is at the house all day and gone at night. Well, he cuts his grass every weekend. I have been woken up quite a few times. "He cuts both front and back at very bizarre hours of the night. I know I can not be the only one who hears it; there are other houses near. It's been going on for the past few months. I don't hear it every time, but many times I've been woken up. "This morning it happened again. Should I go up to him and talk c*** next time it happens?" In the comments, people said that it wasn't acceptable to be noisy past certain times, and therefore, they should "call the police". Another said: "I hear you about calling the police, but sometimes I get the feeling that without saying it, sometimes they convey who called." Someone penned: "If someone is running a lawnmower at 3am, we're past the 'maybe they're unaware' stage. One polite conversation is reasonable; after that, I'd start looking up local noise ordinances." A woman wrote: "I just asked my husband if he could imagine a neighbour doing this, he said yes, so and so.. I said immediately I’m calling the cops. No questions asked, he can be p***** at me, I don't care. 6am is disrespectful, but we live in a hot climate, so I get it. "At 3am, I’m calling the cops and waiting outside the door with them to cuss you out, I don't care. I love my sleep too much, and I’m a chill neighbour outside of this. "Same neighbour burns his trash and weeds, during the fall when it’s actually nice enough to have the windows open, I don’t complain, I just close them and turn on the AC (air conditioning). But [impact] my sleep...we’re beefing for life". A Redditor wrote: "At 3am, this stops being a matter of personal preference and becomes a matter of basic consideration… "Noise ordinances exist for exactly this reason… when one person's routine starts affecting dozens of other people trying to sleep…Being courteous matters, but so does respecting everyone else's right to a quiet night." "The fact that this has been going on for months makes it even crazier," another person fumed. "One time is weird; every weekend is a choice."
