There are two girls in the room next to me.
And they're singing, very very badly.
fuck you thin college dorm walls.

Sing back.
Are those chicks dimes?
For bonus points, sing the same song back at them.
For even more bonus points, sing it well.
What Everest said.
DO EEET.
Find some speakers, crank them up to max, and play death metal music.
Nah, grindcore is for real pros.
Either one works, really. If I knew how to scream (still need to learn how to do that), that would be my response.
Shame I don't live in a dorm, because then I could respond to such instances with shredding.
They stopped (un)fortunately, I was going to blast Anal Cunt.
that'll shut em up
Should have gotten some friends together and mimicked an orgy. That would have been splendid. /stillthanksBarkeyforthatanecdote
Dude, props.
You realize this means that you'll have to resolve this issue with that when it comes up during your college experience, right? Let us know how that goes. >
I... actually don't think I've ever heard any of my neighbors while I was in my dorm.
I don't think it's that my school's dorms are particularly soundproof...
Maybe my neighbors are just very reserved?
Or I'm good at ignoring people?
Guys, you are going about this all wrong. If you want your neighbors to suffer in a loudness war you have to play truly terrible music. I recommend using the Spice Girls, for that associated feeling of shame.
>implying Anal Cunt isn't truly terrible
Anal Cunt is nearly the platonic ideal of trying too hard. Still terrible, but the effort they put into being bad makes it loose some of the bite.
Well, yeah, but the people next door probably don't know that.
Unless they're sisbros and were screaming their lungs out, and Crimson didn't tell us.
^^Always been my feeling. They're the musical equivalent of learning the f-word shocks people and after he does it too much his parents learn to ignore him.
Yeah. Intentionally or not, they're still atrocious.
Cannibal Corpse or GTFO
Well, they did try to sing Opera one time (eeuuughhh), but otherwise their singing was as far away from metal as possible.
Unless they were THAT bad.
I'm pretty meh on Cannibal Corpse, honestly.
And most actual death metal.
^ Opera? You poor thing.
*edit*
I play my radio all the time but I don't think the walls are that thin, and my neighbor is my girlfriend and I know she has bad hearing anyway. And I don't sing, I just do idiotic dances. Which I would certainly hope no one can hear.
The walls in my dorm last year were pretty thin though. And the year before that too. Single layer of painted cinderblock, those were. In the room next door were two girls, the one up against the wall I was against often had sex with her boyfriend but never sang. The other one was prone to singing but was actually pretty good. These two things obviously didn't happen at the same time.
But none of that matters anyway because the most noise came from the crazy French guy down the hall with the huge sound system who would just blast hip hop/electronic/whatever all the time.
Last year there was Walker with his cello down at the end of the hall, and Solomon with his guitar, keyboard, and voice closer by, but they were both good so I didn't mind.
Also, I have always lived with a white noise machine. And fans.
heavy symphonic polka metal* is the best musical weapon
*this probably doesn't exist but whatever
1. Earplugs are your friend.
2. Or you could just go around and ask them politely to stop.
^^
Not exactly polka, but still.
Noise weapons:
You may also try electronic, like Supersilent's 7.4 - five minutes of machine noises until it gets more melodic.
Anal Cunt is well and good, but it's deliberate, which makes it lose some of the charm.
Try some real bad music, like Powerman 5000.
The only solution is to play Controlled Bleeding's Knees and Bones at extremely high volume.
Like so:
That, or unashamedly seduce them... while playing Knees and Bones at extremely high volume.
