My neighbor across the street has a teen who probably got their first old Honda Civic recently with the front bumper missing and sits outside the house revving it randomly while listening to bassy rap thundering through the house walls for hours every evening lately. Opens the car door occasionally to hack out a lung since he's hot-boxing weed. Figured I could join in the fun, but maybe that's too mean.
Convince me not to!

I feel like this either escalates into a gunfight or ends with you being carbro friends. Good luck

😅 Guys this is Canada, the scenarios are: get bitched out by his parents, stabbed, beat up, invited to a BBQ, all of the above, or become carbo friends. I like weed too, actually. The cops might not like him getting high in his car if they ever drove by, but I don't snitch.
My shitty truck has a rusted out muffler, but I figured that'd like responding with a nuclear bomb. Won't get shot at though.

Oh my bad. In that case, shouldn't you be sitting in a lawn chair chirping at him?

Not defending the kid, but maybe he has utter shit parents/family and is escaping the house, but can't afford to drive away all the time. He's rude, clearly, but give it a while and then just leave a note on his car window that says something like, "cool music bro, and thanks for sharing with the whole neighborhood, but can you drop the volume down to a 3 or wear headphones? thnx".

Despite joking around that's possible yeah. I hope not, his mom seemed nice when I spoke to her, but then again the cops showed up when her ex was moving out last summer after a lot of yelling and a smashed front door window. If I do a note I'll try not to be passive aggressive about it.

If you're feeling really generous, you could give him some headphones

I did this to my neighbour. My note simply read: "you're the only one who wants to listen to your tunes"

Just go hot box his honda with him.

I'll convert him to our lord and savior, 510 carts.

He's doing rap so you gotta do rap too. That's a start for your playlist. Throw in some classic stuff like Sir Mix-a-Lot, Vanilla Ice, and MC Hammer, some DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince. Upbeat fun stuff. Mix in some ICP to really mess with him.

Shit, time to update ReVanced.

Is he working on it or just wasting gas?
If he has the hood open, get wasted and stumble over to give him some advice.

No work is being done, just hanging out.

I recommend Helloween's Keeper of the Seven Keys, Part II

It's time to start leaving him gifts of music CDs that you enjoy.

Rev at him, but do it in musical rhythm, see if he catches on and joins in, then share a blunt and teach him not to be a cunt.
If he gets hostile that's when hand be thrown.

Another thing we can thank Drug Ford for.

Wait till 530AM and return the favour.

Call the cops and complain about an impaired driver. Intoxicated and in the car with the keys are a bad combo regardless of whether they are actively driving.
Beacon@fedia.io · 4 pts · 194d
If the kid isn't driving then getting him a dui on a technicality is super fucked up. Intoxicated while sitting in a car is a 100% victimless non-crime

The law says sitting in a car drunk is DUI.
BCsven@lemmy.ca · 0 pts · 193d
Well our laws are if you are in control of a vehicle while intoxicated then you get a ticket , etc. You don't have to be in motion to get a ticket. Just having the keys on you sitting in a car drunk could qualify, because you have the key, thus the ability to control it at any time.
Sure its technicality, but that law is there to prevent him driving off one day. Prevent is a problematic word. But its like sexual offenders not allowed near a school. It isn't preventing sex crimes, but could lower chances, so you get ticketed for violating the laws.

That's fucking dumb and you know it.
SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 193d
Driving drunk is fucking dumb.
LePoisson@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 193d
Yes it is. I agree with that. Sleeping in your car so you don't drive drunk shouldn't be a crime and technically (at least in the USA where the person I replied to presumably lives) that is. That's what I'm saying is dumb.
Beacon@fedia.io · 1 pts · 193d
HE'S NOT DRIVING.
Auli@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 192d
You don't know that. From the very brief post by OP sure but you don't know if he tears away every once in awhile.
Beacon@fedia.io · 1 pts · 192d
Fine then let's simply talk about each possibility. Can we agree that if all he ever does is sit in the car without driving then it would be fucked up to call the cops on him? And obviously if you ever see him driving impaired then you should call the cops?
Auli@lemmy.ca · -1 pts · 192d
It is drunk driving still.
