Ye Olde Tale of ‘Can’t Anyone Else Hear That Fucking Yippy Dog in 304?’

But seriously. I can’t even think right now.

This is far from the first time I’ve been on the edge of YouTubing a video of ferocious dog barking and pointing the speaker directly at the wall.

Back in September, or so, we got a new neighbor… and her dog. For three weeks, the dog barked from 7am to 5pm. Nonstop. Every day.

And not like, a dog bark. It’s some little yippy-ass, ankle-biter of a “dog” that apparently has anxiety, so it just barks all. goddamn. day.

Someone on my floor left a note on her door back in September saying something along the lines of, hey, your dog barks all day and it’s annoying. Her response? A notebook page-long note saying that we just need to get laid and that we’re assholes and that if we leave another note on her door, she’ll call the police because that’s harassment. Oh, and if we have a partner already who engages us in the sex, he/she needs to do a better job.

LOL. Okie dokie.

Finally, after God-knows how many of us complained, she took the dog to the vet(?) and then it quit barking…

Or so I thought.

This weekend, it started up again. This time at night. And then yesterday. And now here we are today, an hour and a half into an incessant yip session.

And no, it doesn’t matter how loud I turn up my TV. It’s already up higher than normal and it’s giving me a headache.

Sure, I could just go in the bedroom where I can’t hear it (as much). Okay, but really, I can’t even be in my own living room?

Sigh. Apartment living. I wonder about the guy in 303…

Speaking of 3OH!3… If I listen to Chokechain loud enough, I can’t hear it anymore! Success!
