People living in cities who complain about the noise should be tranquillized (LINK)

Seriously. State funded sedation is what I'm talking about here. Actually, it shouldn't be state funded at all. The dumb fucks should pay for it themselves.

And ok... maybe we should offer them a chance to relocate first. And then if they continue to be difficult then we can just shaft them with the tranquillizers.

Honestly, my brain hurts when I think about these people or hear about another venue or party being shut down because some twat complained about the noise.

I'd like to be the guy at the police station taking the complaint. “Really...you moved to the city to enjoy the peace and quiet...?”


I've got a newsflash for you! Cities are big, dirty, crowded and above all, noisy hives of human activity and that's why people flock to them and love them.

Yes, you are entitled to a decent nights sleep. Fairplay. But not at the expense of culture.

If you can't get a decent nights sleep in the city where you live...consider moving maybe? Perhaps the city is not for you? Maybe just outside of the city? Perhaps the mountains? The country? The sea? The suburbs? I'd say probably anywhere but the city.

There should really be some sort of “common sense” law. Something along the lines of...“You can't be serious. Did you not notice that you were moving into the city? Go away you idiot.”

City dwellers from other countries relish the noise of their cities. The people who live there love it. They get a free party. They hang out on their balconies and go nuts.

In Sydney, they call the cops.

Look, if the noise is bothering you and you own the place, then you should pay for soundproofing. If you don't want to pay for soundproofing, rent the place to someone who doesn't mind the noise, sell the place to someone who doesn't mind the noise, deal with the damn noise, or just fucking move!


If you're renting the place and your landlord doesn't want to pay for soundproofing, bad fucking luck! Move! Vacate your ass so that someone cooler can move in.

In fact! Fuck the soundproofing all together and just make all these places cheaper to rent. That will create a whole rash of affordable housing in creative centres for musicians, students, writers, actors, trash bags and the generally financially challenged from all walks who will love it and make it rock.

Of course this would in turn create a 'fashionable' area that would attract a bunch of people who want to be cool but don't like all the noisy things that are associated with being cool.

They would move in, soundproof everything, jack up the rents, strangle the culture out of the place and essentially make it a very dull, terribly un-cool and quiet place.

And they would call it Sydney.

Fuck that. Bring on the tranquillizers.

I agree -- people should really have a good think before they buy a place next to a nightclub or pub. What do they expect?
