Well, the new neighbours started to move in yesterday - well, the man of the house at any rate. I took one look at what was going into the house and felt bitter disappointment. Next to his SHINY NEW DARK-RED PICKUP TRUCK that was sitting in the driveway, there was a WHITE PATTERNED OVERSTUFFED COUCH that Mxo said was too big to go in through the door (wonder how they'll figure that one out) and a bunch of WHITE EXERCISE EQUIPMENT. I saw him getting a bunch of groceries from SAFEWAY out of the back of his TRUCK, he was wearing TOMMY HILFIGER SHORTS and, though young-looking, had a big BALD SPOT on the top of his head.
He vanished inside and we spent a quiet evening, then about 11:00 he turned on his BIG-SCREEN TV that was either playing a MOVIE ON DVD IN STEREO or else he has one of those CABLE TV PACKAGES that get only channels that feature lots of screaming, roaring and shooting. I could hear everything clearly though this was coming from the far side of the next house over (I live in a detached house; this is not a duplex situation). I was not happy.
This situation may improve when they move lots of FURNITURE and CARPETING into the TV ROOM to soak up the sound, because last night it must have been bouncing off the NEW HARDWOOD FLOORS. If it doesn't, I am going to exact some kind of obscure revenge - something vaguely threatening, disturbing and unsettling. Suggestions welcome. Fortunately they rent so if it's bad I can talk to the Croats who own the place - they like me.
As I said, I was disappointed after one look at these people - Mxo said the wife is BLONDE too. They seem so boring and normal and Pink, it's beyond description. Unfortunately, these days being Normal means psychotic materialistic attachment to THINGS, having bad taste and being very loud with it, and generally behaving as if you're the only one on the planet.
I would dearly love to be proven wrong on any of this, but the situation looks dire. O Espressoman, why couldn't you have been my neighbour?

Give me a little time to study the movements of my new neighbours, and I will give you a precis of their habits so you can knock one or both of them off efficiently and move in (I'll leave it up to you to decide whether to keep the blonde). It's quite a nice little house, actually.
