Woman told not to flush toilet at night , apparently it causes an unacceptable level of noise to her neighbour.
Now I know that it is possible for flushing a toilet to make quite a bit of noise, but considering that she has also been asked not to switch the light on because the switch disturbs the neighbour, you might thing that the council would find soundproofing to be a viable option 
See no evil. Hear no evil. Smell a great big dookie.
I used to live in a duplex with fairly thin walls, so as a courtesy, I didn’t flush in the middle of the night. Its a habit I still have. Mostly because I’m half asleep and I have to hold down the handle for it to flush, and being half asleep, I don’t want to stand there and wake all the way up while waiting for a complete flush.
I really want to know more about the complaining neighbor.
Might have known this thread would attract lieu :rolleyes:. First reply as well 
Maybe she’s the woman who used to live downstairs from me who complained about the excessive noise my cat made as he ran from room to room.
The landlord should furnish the complaining neighbor with a pair of industrial grade ear muffs.
If a light switch* bothers this neighbor so much, perhaps he/she/it might want to consider moving into a shack in Montana*.
*No offense to citizens of Montana.
Making bug up your ass comments to those that reply to your thread will certainly lessen their number.
Well, don’t let him wear steel-toed boots anymore!
Sorry, no offense meant.
Cool… didn’t mean to snap.
I’m gonna’ take a page out of lieu’s book, and observe that you WANT to flush after dark. After light, you can just let it mellow…
Yeah, because we all know how noisy those things can be.
A “dookie?”
A fucking “dookie?”
(Kalhoun jots this one down in her “Book of Lieu”)
I get more smarter and more smarter the more I hang around with him!
Ah, neighbourhood disputes … I had one neighbour offer to kill me, once, because I was washing the dishes too loudly. Such fun these things can be.
“over-zealous housing officer”
Are there any housing officers, or homeowners association officials, who aren’t over-zealous? It just seems like the kind of job that naturally attracts busybodies with poles up their asses who love nothing better than sticking their noses into other peoples’ lives.
What have the English done to light switches that makes them so loud?
A light switch?
Yet another wonderful argument for private property rights.
Are you truly free, if the government is your landlord? Guess not, if they can order you to crap in the dark, and not flush.
(Incidentally, if you have to crap in the dark, how do you know when you’re finished, um, wiping?)
One could probably take a sucessful durf while wearing night vision goggles until you looked down and saw green poop. Then I think the scream would pretty much defeat the initial quest of the stealthy poot.
I’m with the others… what’s up with audible light switches?
…light switch? Noisy light switch? (envisions this huge steel Y-switch, like Dr. Frankenstein habitually used to charge up Boris Karloff, or like the ones executioners always used on old gangster movies, when they’re about to strap James Cagney into the electric chair…)
