“I was sound asleep Friday night until I heard some lady talking loudly on my roof. I live on the last floor, my bed is next to the window so when I heard her speaking so loud it felt as if she was in the room with me.”

“I looked at the clock and it was 2:35 AM. Since this chick kept speaking loud about how she used to jump from roof to roof as a kid, I couldn’t take it anymore and I yelled out the window ‘BE QUIET.’”

“Since they kept on speaking I went to the kids room and closed the window so they wouldn’t wake them, and when I went back to bed, I heard them moaning and ‘STUFF’.”

“I heard everything! I hate to be a buzzkill, but if they really feel the need to explore their sexual needs in public, they should at least try to keep it on the low. My building is very old–I hear every footstep on the roof and in the hallways.”

“I will post this web address on the mailboxes in my building so maybe that way my neighbors can learn how to have consideration for the other tenants in this building.”
