I guess I was, and still am, in a \u201cMood<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

For the past 12 weeks the old guy next door has been working in his yard. That\u2019s fine, it makes him happy, more power to him.<\/p>\n

When he started, he\u2019d be playing music, and if I listened real carefully I could hear snippets of the tunes. We all have our windows open and honestly it didn\u2019t bother me. Just background noise nothing to it.<\/p>\n

Over time, the volume has increased. Over the past 4-5 weeks it\u2019s gotten to the point that he\u2019s turning it up so he can hear it over his gas powered leaf blower. As an aside he cranks the damn leaf blower up and uses it in his “mostly dirt” back yard. So those of us around him spend all our time fucking dusting our houses.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s like painting the San Francisco bridge. I no sooner get the house clean and then “Burrrrrrrrrrrrrr Burrrrr Blaat Burrr” & I\u2019ve got a dust storm blowing through the house again.<\/p>\n

But he\u2019s not the only one. The Mexicans up at the top of the canyon almost every weekend blast mariachi music nightly until 10:30. They only stop because if they\u2019re blasting it after that, someone calls the cops and they get another ticket.<\/p>\n

The old guy across the street smokes his rancid pot that wafts all over the neighborhood while playing some of the worst recordings and\/or worst rock bands of the 60\u2019s & 70\u2019s, also at deafening volume.<\/p>\n

Typically, I can\u2019t sit in my own living room and watch a movie anymore. Forget a film where the actors are British, often their character\u2019s accents are unintelligible if there\u2019s a lot of background sounds, either from the soundtrack or from the external Cacophony provided by my ever so courteous neighbors.<\/p>\n

Honestly, I\u2019ve given up trying to enjoy anything because no matter when I sit down to watch something, within minutes there\u2019s \u201cAie yi yiaaaa\u201d or some really shitty \u201cB\u201d side track from Deep Purple.<\/p>\n

I guess yesterday, I reached a breaking point.<\/p>\n

Normally I keep my TV and music volume pretty damn low. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s polite for me to disrupt other peoples lives. I don\u2019t run my yard tools until typically about 10 in the morning.<\/p>\n

I try very hard to keep my shit from interfering with other people\u2019s shit. I don\u2019t cause trouble, I don\u2019t tell people to turn their shit down, or call the cops. I thought I was just being a decent human being and eventually these people turn their shit off or down and I\u2019m fine.<\/p>\n

But you know what? The more you don\u2019t say shit, the worse people behave. The more<\/em><\/strong> inconsiderate they become. Nobody cares, that you\u2019re not<\/strong> fucking up their<\/em> evening. They never think that they\u2019re fucking up someone else\u2019s evening, day, afternoon, or whatever.<\/p>\n

They just assume their music, or drunken shouting, echoing down the canyon is something everybody wants to hear.<\/p>\n

Guess what? It\u2019s not!<\/strong><\/p>\n

So, right on cue yesterday, I\u2019d made myself lunch, turned on the TV to watch a football game, and\u2026 Music from the guy\u2019s back yard so loud it was like it was coming from my TV in my living room. To top it off, the fucking leaf blower too, kicking up dust blowing straight into my house.<\/p>\n

FUCK!!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Okay, so I\u2019m not going to be able to watch the game. Fine, I\u2019ll do other shit that needs to get done. But I\u2019m going to play some music…<\/p>\n

From every set of speakers in the house. And I\u2019m going to play it loud enough that I can run the vacuum and do anything else I need to do. This house is going to rock like Studio 54<\/em> on a Saturday night.<\/p>\n

And the playlist? Ohhh That\u2019s easy! A collection of very angry fight songs that are not censored. This is a playlist that I put together to help keep me going after Jerry died. The songs are angry, full of rage, and pretty much expressed what I was feeling at the time. They\u2019re dark, and some are downright hostile.<\/p>\n

Watch, some prissy fuck will call the cops and accuse me of \u201cHate Speech\u201d.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re kind of fitting after the last week. Two people butchered. Democrats telling us to calm down and tone down the rhetoric. Trans fucks celebrating death, others whining about losing their jobs because they were stupid enough to go on TikTok a video their gleeful hatred of Charlie Kirk and anyone else they disagree<\/em> with. Then trying to hide behind the 1st amendment when their employers cut them loose. Oh boo hoo.<\/p>\n

Yet more people saying Stephen King shouldn\u2019t be canceled for his hateful spew, followed by a pussy assed \u201cApology\u201d.<\/p>\n

Nancy Pelosi raising funds to pay for the California redistricting to deprive all of us of representation. Office Depot libtards refusing to print a poster of Charlie Kirk that had no message other than his name, DOB and Date he died. After it was paid for! (Those “loads their mothers should\u2019ve swallowed”, have since been fired.) California democrats refusing an invitation from the GOP to attend a Kirk vigil \u201cBecause he was fascist\u201d thereby continuing to spew vomitous vitriol against a man that simply debated university students.\u00a0<\/p>\n

BUT at the same damn time they\u2019re telling right leaning people or conservatives that we\u2019re<\/em><\/span><\/strong> wrong for being righteously angry Kirk was shot & killed by some brainwashed maladjusted queer kid poisoned with years of leftist bullshit.<\/p>\n

As my china rattled, and the whole neighborhood heard my music. Raw, angry, unashamed, and disruptive. It occurred to me that I\u2019m still really PISSED OFF<\/strong>. About a lot of things!<\/p>\n

Absolutely nothing that\u2019s happened in the past 6 years to me personally, and the country in general, is acceptable. But those of us on the right, or more conservative types have been told we\u2019re the worst scum for disagreeing of asking questions.<\/p>\n

This is me reaching my fucking breaking point! I and others like me have been silent for too long.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time for us to get loud<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

By the way, Apple HomePods have got some range of volume. I think I\u2019ll be putting the Mini\u2019s out on the decks when I\u2019m working from here on out. Since it appears the object of the game is to annoy the neighborhood\u2026 I\u2019ll play by their rules.<\/p>\n

Linkin Park, Korn, NIN, and peppered in I\u2019ll throw in some death metal. Maybe I\u2019ll find some tolerable white supremacist shit just to really piss off the pussy democrats that live all around me.<\/p>\n

Let one of them try to give me the least bit of shit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
