That should solve all your problems! 
noise violation prolem...
noise violation prolem... not what you probably were thinking this was about...
i go to school at UNT and i'm living in the dorms (sucks... i know) anyways, quiet hours are at 10:00 on the weekdays and my neighbor likes to go to bed at 10 if not earlier.
problem is, we share an A/C vent and noise goes through it like crazy. and the bigger problem is that we always have friends over usually till like 1 in the morning. for the first 2 weeks this kid's solution to us being loud was to punch the wall for probalby 30 seconds or until we quit talking.
then 2 days ago he called the front desk on a "noise violation", which we didn't get a write-up (3 write-ups equal a $75 ticket) because he never actually confronted us about it.
so last night he actually got out of bed and asked us to turn down the noise, which consisted of 2 laptops being typed on and family guy in the background, barely loud enough for us to hear it. so we turn it down and i'm 7 feet from the tv and i can't make out half the words. WTF?!
what's this kid's problem? how can i deal with him or maybe the crappy accoustics in the room? any ideas? we thought of a "vent muffler" made of cardboard and sound deadner..
any of y'all ever had a similar problem?

one night a girl asked why he always banged on the wall and i yelled out that he wanted it to be quiet while he stuck the ***** in his butt.
i have thought about cramming a pillow in his side of the AC vent...

be a grown up about it. ask him to come hang out with yall. You never know he might take ya up on the offer and then everything is gravy. if he doesnt want to, work out a solution. 4 nights a week yall get to be loud, the other three quiet. Dont let a stupid situation like this keep yall from having fun, but also dont act like an ***, it will only make the situation worse. If none of this works, go hang out with the girls that are just down the hall. Hell if there were girls that close I would never be in my room.

I had a roomate like that in the dorms. I liked to stay up late and party and he liked to get his sleep. Well I locked him out of the room one night while my friends and I partied it up. We blocked the door with his bed and wouldn't let him in. He never had a problem with partying after that. The boy graduated with a 3.8 GPA, so a little partying for a semester didn't hurt him at all.
Texass683: we've thought about hanging out with him or whatever, but we've never done it. everytime we think about it he's already asleep. and the girls are always in our room. that's why it's always loud.
i'm actually thinking about the ear plugs now tho.... for real.
