Things that go hump in the night


We interrupt your Friday morning with the most important survey maybe of the morning. From NBC New York:

More than two-thirds of New Yorkers hear their neighbors bumpin' and grindin' at all hours of the night, but most don't confront them about it (yikes!) or call city hot lines to complain (we don't think 311 takes those calls anyway), a new survey found. The study, conducted by NYC homeowners' Web site BrickUnderground.com., suggests you and your significant other may want to muzzle your moans regardless of whether your neighbors whine about the volume of your sexual trysts. Nearly a fifth of those surveyed actually became aroused by the sounds of their neighbors getting it on.

  1. I was vice president for my coop for two years. Basically I wanted to see how things ran and watch what was going on. It is a good tax deduction but I will NEVER buy one again. I do not like the rules placed on the owners of the shares.

  2. The creepy thing for me is possessing unwanted intimate knowledge of my neighbors and having those thoughts flash before my eyes when we meet in the stairwell.

    Heh.

    I only ever hear my neighbors playing Aerosmith Rock Band.

  4. It's so embarrassing to have guests over and have the jackhammer in the ceiling start up just as we're about to discuss Schindler's list...

  5. Tell me about it!

    We were watching Barabbas last Saturday night, and discussing the subtle nuances of Arthur Kennedy's performance as Pontius Pilate... and for the next 30 minutes we were drown out by 29 minutes of begging and one minute of sex.
