Do you remember the Real Men of Genius ad campaign by Budweiser from the early 2000s?
We've had some recent experiences with our neighbors, and it seemed the best way to put my feelings into words was through a Real Men of Genius mock advertisement.
Inspired by actual events that have occurred twice...
The Easton Family Presents:
♫ Real Men of Genius ♫
Today, we salute you, Mr. staying up all night drunk neighbor.
Any man can open the screen door to his patio, but a real man rips the door from its track and throws it off the third story balcony.
Common courtesy is for wimps. Stomp on your floor as hard as you can, even though it's the middle of the night.
When the rest of the world is asleep, you're throwing water balloons made of latex gloves right outside your neighbors' window.
Go ahead and stay up for the 7AM sunrise; everyone else is going to their jobs, but you probably won't have yours much longer.
So crack open another Budweiser, Mr drunk neighbor. In your honor, I'll be playing the piano loudly all day.
(♫ Where is my screen door? ♫)

HAHAHA!! Very funny, and I loved those commercials.
That was brilliant, but I'm not sure Anheuser Busch would have aired it. I do miss the Real Men of Genius ads.
Ha! You are a real "Sheri" of genius! I hope you really did spend the whole day playing the piano. They say "music soothes the savage beast". I say that your "savage beast" of a neighbor deserves lots of soothing with some pounding on the piano to match the pounding in his head.
That was awesome!
I *loved* those commercials. You totally nailed the backup singer parts!
That was very clever! I could hear the song in my head as I read it. Brilliant.
Nice Sheri! That was pretty freaking classic. Your neighbors sound like a bunch of poo nuggets. Thank goodness you wont be there for long.
HAHA. Hilarious.
Ooh, my condolences; we used to have one of those. He would come home drunk and turn on loud music. We called the cops on him once because it sounded like he was beating up his girlfriend. Another time I knocked on his door to ask him to turn it down. He yelled at me for a minute or two before he changed his mind and invited me into his apartment to show me his sound system.
