If you play your bass where I can physically feel it shaking me from across the street, I hate you automatically.
No dislike. No seriously disagree.
Hatred. The same level I reserve for Nazis and people who don't hold the run button down in platformers.
Lol no I agree. But If I'm listening to music in private it's not quiet.
Soo apparently we almost got robbed tonight.
pretty much right as I got here So a guy came in in a ski mask asking about what money we had in our draw and 2nd shift was like we don't keep money (good lie) so he dipped and apparently went to just about every hotel around us.
Yeah we keep $100 MAx except during checkout when people are paying and it's still rare for us to take cash payment. we would be the wrong place to rob.
Also if dude worked their he should of just took it out of the register while he was working way easier to get away with in theory.
We used to keep more back in 2019. 2020 has just been rife with changes.

It's crazy how fast word travels around here. The dominos across the street sent me free food because they thought I was robbed.
I was not complaining about the free food. in fact I was quite happy about it.

I don't have a lot of options at this time of night. also free. Something about a gift horse and mouths.
That is probably what I should do.
That or duh duh duuuuuuh gas station popcorn.
That no just had so much force behind it I couldn't think of a response.
No, he's totally right. When I was in high school, my mom owned a little general store up in the mountains... about half of the store was beer, wine and spirits; the other half was convenience grocery, bait and tackle, video rentals, smokes, and tourist souvenirs. She prided herself on the cleanliness of her store. The only thing that *never* got cleaned out? The oil pan in the popcorn machine.
We have four grocery stores within a mile of here, so I don't worry if I forget something.
I also usually only shop for a few days at a time.

Holy shit. Thank God you are alright.
I sprained my thumb pretty good on the first snow run last week so it's been nice to let that heal.

Nah, Gran is right. It's assuming the rest of the world wants to hear your music. I can FEEL my neighbor's bass some nights.
There's no reason for that.

I really don't get the hate about room parties. Our room parties were watching anime all night and cooking with the rice cooker and eating whatever we could and then passing out. We got security or what have you called on us for that but the people having very loud sex right next door? Nothing.

Overall, it's definitely a "personal space" thing that aggravates me no end. In my travels, I've learned that Americans want and provide far more physical personal space than other cultures. Unfortunately, this doesn't extend to any sort of emanation:
- Slathered on perfume or aftershave
- Horrific body odor
- Loud personal conversations
- Loud music
- Coughing, sneezing, or otherwise spreading germs
- Smoking
- Vaping
In general, my attitude is, "You can do anything you darned well please as long as I don't have to inhale it, it won't cause me injury (for example, excessively loud music), and, if I am in my own home with the windows closed, I don't notice it."
I consider that a fairly low bar in requesting personal space.
It is far, far too high of a bar for most people in the world. And Americans are uniquely resentful. "Can you please not smoke in the elevator? I have asthma and there's a 'No Smoking' sign right there."
"This is 'Mericuh! I can smoke anywhere I want! It's my Constitutional right!"
Because it's always about "Constitutional rights". I think they believe the Constitution is several thousand pages long, detailing smoking, masks, shorts, thong bikinis, and all kinds of other topics it's utterly amazing the Founding Fathers thought of at all...

I go to a hotel to sleep. If you are making so much noise after 11:00 pm that I cannot sleep, I will call the front desk and complain. The reason people don't complain about loud sex is that it typically doesn't last as long as an anime marathon...
EDIT: The hotel we use for the high school Disneyland trip knows how to deal with it: All the large groups are put in one wing, and all the single-room occupants are in a separate wing. The only time we've had issues has been when either single-room occupants get put into the large-group wing because of booking issues, or when one of the large groups is so loud that the other groups have to come down on them. I'm looking at YOU, Disneyland cheerleading squad competition!

First day of teaching post-vacation, but we don't go back to campus until the 11th.
Also, Eve's daughter is three today.
Yesterday evening MrT got a notification trough the dutch corona app that he'd been in contact with someone who tested positive. The contact was wednesday.
Today he got a test, so now we wait.
The waiting is the worst. Fingers crossed, Woran.

Unfortunately I've been alternating between episodes of Game of Thrones (season 1) and superfan episodes of The Office on Peacock so I had some pretty weird dreams last night, which ended up with me waking up at 5 this morning.
I think both Mark and NH nailed the loud noise thing. Things were NOT this reactive to me before last year, that's for certain.

If I'm paying $60+ a night to stay somewhere, you'd best believe there's going to be debauchery.
