<description>&lt;p&gt;This is stupid. If your downstairs neighbor can hear you, YOU&apos;RE TOO LOUD. There is no reasonable excuse for stomping around your apartment every night, dragging the furniture around. Parties are different, of course, I&apos;m talking every night here.

Often it&apos;s as simple as taking your shoes off. If you find this complicated, you should move to a basement apartment.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;#4 - great idea.  now can anyone help me with the smoker who lives downstairs from me?  there&apos;s a no-smoking policy in the building and yet they persist - and the landlord knows about it! &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;

Go to the passive-aggressive neighbor&apos;s door, and give him a box of 30 dB ear plugs from Duane Reade, with a receipt that shows it costs about $4.

Secondly, obtain a written estimate of how much it would cost to rip out the floor to install sound insulation, and give that to him, showing that it would cost many thousands of dollars.

Then, finally, give him a brochure on Fort Collins, Colorado, which was named by Money Magazine as &quot;2006&apos;s Best Place to Live.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
