Sick of drunks yelling at each other outside my house....

I am so sick of drunk yuppies screaming boozily down my street after midnight after they wobble out of Soda or Beast or one of the several new bars opening up on Vanderbilt. Don't turn my beautiful, quiet neighborhood into the East Village circa 1987!

    take comfort in the fact that if you're ever so inclined, you can get drunk and loud just steps from your home!

    As long as I don't get pee or vomit on my stoop or front yard, I'm cool w/ noise. Lord knows MTA buses are loud enough to wake the dead.

    Mr. Balowski: There's no chance of using your toilet, is there?
    Mike: No.
    Mr. Balowski: I thought not, that's why I pissed in your garden.

    Oh man, I used to watch that show with my dad when I was a kid. I loved it and, of course, Vyvyan was my favorite.

    Rest assured that they get theirs every once in a while from the hood kids. 8)

    Drunk yuppies in Prospect and Crown Heights kind of remind me of African Wildebeast or Gazelles; no matter how many times they see one of their brethren get preyed upon, they just keep on continuing to take the same old path to the same old watering holes. :lol:

    I would hardly equate a homeless guy mugging people to a lion.

    and how is this any different than someone driving down the street blasting music outlined in the other thread. I would not call this area "quite".

    How dare you "HIC" say that! I'm "HIC" not as drunk as you am "HIC" I think! Plus "HIC" we're hippsters not Yuppies!

    "HIC".

    Is it just drunken yuppies, or other drunk people too?

    Drunken hipsters?
    Drunken yuppie hipsters?
    Drunken homeless people?
    Drunken immigrants?
    Drunken gays and lesbians?

    Just wondering if there is an accent apparent in any of the drunken yelling that makes them easily identifiable as yuppies? If so, you may have a peer-reviewed paper in the works...

    There is a checklist, maybe you weren't aware:

    Nasal voices? Check.

    Painfully unfunny jokes and inane conversation (drunk or sober)? Check.

    English completely devoid of any sort of determinable accent (kind of like the AOL guy)? Check.

    Sir, hate to say it looks like you've got yourself a yuppie infestation. :idea:

    each drunk has a unique call much as birds have, close your eyes and listen for these

    drunken hipsters: noted by monotone non-plus phrases about ironic music and indy film punctuated by dead silence (possibly medicated, they posses no humor)

    drunken yuppie hipsters: noted by bursts of loud laughter and waving arm gestures when repeating what they say on tv last night

    drunken homeless people: noted by low mumbling when digging through sand bucket for cigarettes, can be confused with drunken hipsters, but dress ironicly because they are in fact poor (they are not artsy)

    drunken immigrants: noted by slower uncomfortable sentences with misused prepositions and lack of articles ("i will making to you joke now, da?")

    drunken gays and lesbians: noted gasping of mock-shock sound when discussing which brooklyn celeb might be gay while recruiting... hey buddy! that's not funny!

    Subject: lean out the window

    I usually lean out the window and ask them nicely to move it along. Or to point out that people live here and to try to keep it down.
    When cops are doing it at 4 am, I don't suggest asking them to keep it down a little They blare the siren as they drive away. That was really obnoxious

    "I usually lean out the window and ask them nicely to move it along. Or to point out that people live here and to try to keep it down."

    I'm too cranky at 2AM when I've been rousted from the middle of an interesting dream by some a-hole screaming outside my window to ask them anything nicely. Seriously, it's why I'd never get a gun....I wouldn't trust myself not to use it when I was pissed off.

    If they hadn't roosted you, you wouldn't remember the dream.
