Friend of mine at uni (lived in the student area) used to have a tw@t of a neighbor who used to play bhangra at full vol all hours of the day and night.

As usual the police were not interested, the council could not be arsed so he took to buttering slices of toast and frizbeeing them through this tw@ts open window - on the basis that the toast always landed butter side down when it got inside


Any more?

When we were kids our neighbours kids used to throw stuff over the fence into our koi pond - coke cans, cigarette butts etc. My brother and I got them back by chucking their dog a chunk of meat with a few laxatives in it. We never heard what happened, but we hopes that the dog went in and sprayed the house with liquid revenge.

Best one I heard of was from here, can't remember who.

To get back at a very lawn-proud neighbour, take:
Water
Lawn killing herbicide
Ice cube tray
catapult

Variation on that - get lawn food/fertiliser and spread in on their lawn spelling out the word of you choice, the word grows in a more luxuriant manner and colour, that will keep the bugger mowing his lawn and not bothering his neighbours.

Shoving a fresh kipper in the end of a curtain rail.

Neighbours couldn't find the source, and moved house. They took the rail with them.

PoD - have you actually done that!? It's such a well known urban myth (including taking the curtain rail) only usually it is with frozen prawns - not sure how you'd get a kipper in a curtain rail

At uni I used to have a python (cue the awful gags).
Once two of the mice I'd bought for food had babies. Before i knew it we had a box of about 15 mice we didn't know what to do with.
The only option in the end was to post them through our neighbors letterbox in the middle of the night (students as well). Funny thing was they hadn't even pissed us off.

Back in my second year at uni, I lived in a terrace where the couple in the adjoining room in the house next door would noisily sh@g on an almost daily basis. They would leave the window open too, so you could hear everything.

I was getting mightily pissed off, so I went out into town, bought a cheap alarm clock with a loud bell-type alarm, waited until they went at it again, then set the alarm to go off in a couple of minutes, pulled the 'on/off' switch off, opened my window, reached round, put it on their windowsill and waited for the chaos to ensue.

They kept quiet after that

Did it not occur to you to feed them to the python?

twincam 16, you've given me a fantastic idea! my neighbors are a pair of noisy shaggers and regularly leave their window open. i think i need to get myself an old alarm clock. the other night they were at it and i thought someone had been stabbed outside my house! their moans of pleasure sounded like they were in pain!
some people just don't have any shame!

It only ate one per month (2 months when shedding which it was) and the mice were multiplying at approximately 50 times the rate of consumption!

Had a bunch of noisy students living above us in a flat in edinburgh. If you went up to ask them to quieten down, they would reply "not my noise nothing to do with me" One afternoon I cam home to find water coming throught the ceiling, no one was home upstairs but there happened to be a plod wandering wast the flats. He obligingly kicked the door in to turn the water off and but was more interested in the large block of resin on their kitchen table which we pointed out to him.

Another favorite was taping down the button on their intercom buzzer at six in the morning when we went out to work.

Wasn't meant as getting back at him but the was a very anoying bloke on the floor below my mate in his uni halls. After a big night out he lean't out of the window to chuck. The other lads window - a horizontaly pivoting one caught the bulk of it and directed it onto his desk

Tape it, then a)play it back to them slightly out of sync with their rythmn and b) post it up here as a sound file that we can all enjoy!

it can get rather annoying when they do it several times a night and they go on for about half an hour each time. they're a nice couple but i think it be best if they kept their love life private and not make so much racket with the window wide open for everyone to hear. maybe they are into exhibtionism or something. i might just dig the tape recorder out yet if they start again one night!
