Damn churchbells!
August 17, 2011 at 9:37 pm
Its gone 2 in the morning and I have been woken up AGAIN by churchbells. These are going off at all hours and Iam getting seriously pissed off. I have been in work all day from 8 this morning until 11:30 at night, iam knackered and I have churchbells ringing at gone 2am. Seriously, they are going off at all hours and they keep waking me up (not just tonight but this is almost, if not every night) . Can I do anything about this? Or does anyone atleast have some tips on how to block out the noise? I have had it up to my eyeballs! If this isn't against the law it bloody well should be! PEOPLE NEED TO SLEEP!
This is more of a rant than anything because iam seriously cheesed off!
(I wasn't sure where to put this so I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section!)
Excuse any typos but I'm very tired and annoyed! And as I was typing this they went off again! (2:30am)

Call the cops and file a complaint for disturbing the peace.

I believe the sentiment, behind all of the synchronized bells, is to remind god that he has a job, which he needs to show up for...at some point.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

That is a damn good idea!

That's fine but to do it at 2am and wake people up? That should be against the law. I need to sleep!

Hey I'm with you buddy, but we've been paying the guy for centuries. We wouldn't need all the bells if he had left his proper address in his resume. Apparently his qualifications weren't the only thing he mislead us about.

Until you get the authorities to the rescue, I suggest earplugs 
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Make loads of noise outside the church when they are trying to do shit... A prayer being interupted by manic screams from outside would be amusing.
