Default Which is worse??

so for the last two weeks i been sleeping in a rented room at uni for my exam period. this consisted of 6 very hard physics exams, 2 hours each. now there is alot of content in each exam hense alot of quite study time needed.

i had an exam every other day even one on saturday morning. the people living above didnt want to stop making noise for the wrong 2 weeks. so i thought waking everyone up at 10am this morning after a night out drinking for everyone there, and few left windows open. so i got my cbr600rr from home with its dual exhaust pipe and spent best part of 5 minutes bliping the trottle

as i dropped keys off at security for my rented room they asked me if i had been making noise of which i responded. yes that was me making that noise but when you pay £200+ for a guest room for exams to be kept awake almost everynight of which you did nothing about i only did what most other people would do and return the favour on a saturday morning.


so which is worse, being kept awake for all exams or 5 minutes of a through pipe?




rant over hope everyone has nice weekend

The drunken noise is worse obviously, because CBRs sound girly.

What you need is a big twin with a race pipe on it.

10am is perfectly reasonable in my opinion. Tell them to get a life.

Well done lad!!

I had this at the copthorne hotel in Birmingham when I was up at 4 for an 18-rig on a big ass conference at ICC.. The people in the room next door (sounded like 5 of them) were laughing shouting opening their bedroom door, closing the bedroom door, slamming the bedroom door, laughing again but louder etc til about 11pm. I started joining in and laughing at the top of my voice. They kept going quiet & then carrying on, then the last time I did it I heard one of them shout "D!ckhead" so I shouted "I'll be an even bigger d!ckhead when I'm getting up in 5 hours".. They carried on for about another half hour then packed it in.

They got sky news at the top of the hour at bang on 4am - full blast.. me singing kaiser chiefs in the shower "everyday I love you less and less", banging on my wall shouting wakey wakey boys and girls, even knocked on their door as I left at 4.30. Kept me giggling all day long

Shoulda probably just rang reception but sometimes 2 wrongs do make a right

CBR would be the minimum, my sprint with it's tridents on would've done decent job
