This is why people are idiots.

cerulean_skyI really, REALLY, REALLY have to wonder about the people who live above me. They just don't seem to be normal.
Annoyance #1: They have this child. A child who, I swear, must weigh several tons. How else does this child make loud booming noises when it runs through the house? I swear, I can feel the hourse shaking around me.
Annoyance #2: The Mother and the The Child have this cycle. See, The Child runs around the house until The Child falls down and goes boom. Then The Child starts screaming, because larger things fall harder. So The Mother comforts The Child and then puts The Child to sleep. Then while The Child is sleeping, The Mother decides to vaccuum. Which, inevitably, wakes up The Child, and The Child starts screaming. So, The Mother takes out The Child and lets The Child run around. ...and the cycle begins again. (Note: Occasionally The Mother decides to watch television REALLY LOUD, and not vaccuum, which still wakes up The Child.)
Annoyance #3: The Child has not yet learned to sleep through the night. Which wouldn't be all that bad if the parents weren't trying to teach it to do such. How are they doing this? Ever heard the technique where you just let your child scream so that they learn that they can't get what they want just by screaming? ...yeah. You got it. And their room is right above mine. (Not that it would make a difference, as you could hear The Child screaming from anywhere in the house.)
Annoyance #4: Why can I always hear your TV?
This all annoys me so much why? Not simply because all of these things are annoying to me, but also because I expect people to be more considerate. (Maybe I shouldn't, but I do.) Consider the fact that your downstairs neighbor is losing sleep because your child's wailing is keeping her up at night. Doesn't that seem... common sense-ish? Apparently not. I don't know what I expect from people.
Stupid people.
