NEW YORK - So-called "sex mayhem" has been driving New Yorkers crazy over the past year of the pandemic, with the cacophonous sounds of coitus driving many people to file complaints with the city.
According to data obtained by Patch.com, New York City's 311 system received 277 complaints between February 19, 2021 and February 9, 2022 from people annoyed, unable to sleep, or left just plain frustrated by loud lovemaking.
My funniest experience with this was some neighbors living above us...the guy would start making this honking noise like a goose, and the woman he was with would enthusiastically (and very fake-sounding) join in. We can't hear a flock of geese flying overhead without cracking up, and it has led to the phrase "Honk me like a goose!" as a euphemism.
Fortunately, that couple was only good for one round, so it didn't last all day or night.
Used to live with a real screamer. First place we had together had a steep hillside right outside our bedroom. We’d usually sleep with the window open & being young it didn’t even register that everyone in the apartment complex could hear us since the sound just echoed right off the side of the hill. Later we moved to a place that was just the opposite, big ol’ steep-sided ravine about 80-90 feet deep behind the house. I’d get her howling & the drunk on the opposite side of the ravine would stand in his yard with a revolver & encourage us to stop by wasting 6 in the air. I think the whole neighborhood was relieved when we split up & she moved out. Can’t even imagine how loud we would have been if we’d been living in a shithole big city where everything is hard concrete.
I promise you it is not me.

"I hear people fucking."
ReplyDeleteThe other sixth sense.
Classic case of someone being annoyed because somebody else is having a good time.
ReplyDeleteI guess itz a good thing that fish do it under water then...
