The construction store up the street sells high powered air rifles which don't make much sound when fired and comes with a scope...just saying.

This was my first thought, one can aquire a powerful air rifle for as little as $R300, which was attractive. But I dont have a target as the sound system is not in sight. Also my fear would be that in my rage at 4am I may open fire on anything that moves......i decided against

Eggs are the limit

Forro is evil. The Brazilian sertanejo is just as bad. I second the rotten eggs idea. Here are some more evil ideas.

Last time I lived in SP, I lived in Pinheiros and there was a 24-hr pool hall/karoake bar 3 houses away from me. I lived on the 16th floor and the sound traveled upwards. So, drunk douchebags singing sertanejo karoake at 3 am on Tuesday? I was flaming pissed. tried white noise. No luck.

I used rotten eggs, rotten tomatoes and the ultimate: tuna bombs. I saved all of the juice from my canned tuna fish and stuck it in balloons w/ some vinegar. Launched a few of them from 16 floors up and when they hit, that junk splattered all over the place. It got quiet quickly.

Good luck!

Some lady who walks her obnoxious dog keeps standing outside my window and talking to some other lady with an obnoxious dog.

The two dogs bark for 15 minutes straight.

Last time I launched 3 eggs at her from two windows. She had no idea what was happening.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I like Michel Telo,but can imagine your frustration,if having to listen to it in obligation.Too much noise in Brasil (be it loud music everywhere or commercial yelling),too little respect.

Im nearing a gringo meltdown/douchebag moment! I am wakened every morning at 4:45am to "nossa nossa assim voce me mata" by the cowboy builders on the site beside us. They play this godforsaken piece of brazilian excuse for music on a loop for hours, ensuring sleep depravation to anyone who lives within 2 blocks! They also live in the construction so it NEVER stops!

After 3/4 hours of forro i assume most gringos would be on edge (without alcohol to numb the hearing). And this particular song seems to be flavor of the feckin month in Brazil right now and is the crowning turd in the turdpile of brazilian music in general!!

I have 6 more weeks of this living hell before the other brazilian cowboy builders complete the job on our apartment, which was due to be finished 2 weeks before xmas!!

I have attempted revenge by bombarding them with radiohead and the smiths at full pelt, but they seem immune to it!

I know i cant change it, i know im wasting my time venting about it, but its doing my head in!!! Anyone got any good revenge suggestions? even just to humour me or make me feel better?

Sorry but I needed a sleep depraved rant!!!!!!

Nossa !!!

I am awakened every morning at 4:30 by a ...wait...you will not believe it...by a ROOSTER!!!

I live in Centro of SP in apto, why the f.... they need a f..... rooster here?1 kg of poultry can be bought by 2 reais... I think they keep him in some house nearby.

Should I become rich to move to Moema to get some sleep ?

Been there, done that LOL. A few years ago my neighbour acquired a rooster. It lasted about a month, until many of us complained. Not sure whether they got rid of it or one of the other neighbours did it for them. Now I am awakened only by loud barking dogs all night Smile

I don't need to be right; I just don't want to be wrong.
