My Home is Not a Vomitorium

Dear Upstairs Neighbour,
If you want to get completely drunk on a Friday night, that’s fine with me. I don’t even mind if you stumble around and stomp on the floor a lot the next morning when you wake up, still drunk. Really, I don’t.
I’ve been guilty of the same behaviour myself. I like to think that I’ll have mellowed out by the time I reach your age, but I don’t look down on your behaviour.
What I do disapprove of is you vomiting over the edge of your balcony, instead of in your toilet like a normal drunk person. See, when you puke over the railing, your stomach contents end up on my balcony, and I don’t really appreciate having to clean up another person’s puke.
I appreciate it even less when some of it lands on my BBQ. I cook food with that! Fresh food, not someone else’s semi-digested food!
Do it again, and I might have to make a formal complaint about you. Given the current housing shortage, I don’t think either one of us wants for that to happen.
Regards,
Your Downstairs Neighbour

that is disgusting.
ewww!
EEEEEEWWWWWW That is revolting.
A couple of months ago we went to the local Chinese karaoke place with new neighbours. It turns out that one of the neighbours had suffered a horribly traumatic experience earlier in the year, and for that I sympathize with her. However, because of this, she hit the alcohol pretty hard and threw up on the restaurant floor. Luckily most of the patrons were drunkenly cheering on some of the singers, so I don’t think anyone had quite noticed.
Is it bad of me to be completely disgusted? What she went through was shocking, but still…. she threw up in a restaurant. WHERE PEOPLE EAT THINGS.
Yeah, I pretty much agree with everyone…disgusting. Luckily, the recent rain seems to have washed most of it away, so I didn’t have to deal with it myself. The BBQ is still a bit gross, though, so I’ll have to clean that up before I use it again.
I am a very picky person when it comes to my cooking utensils and dishes/cutlery. Even with a good clean, I wouldn’t be able to go near that BBQ with food again
@Mike: Luckily, the puke only landed on the BBQ lid. None got on the actual grill, so it’s still perfectly clean to cook on. Besides, if it had got on the grill, I’m sure turning it on full blast for 10 or 15 minutes would have been enough to kill any germs.
Speaking of which…I need to get my propane tank refilled. I left it on high to “self-clean” the other day, but accidentally left it on for about an hour, instead of the usual 5 minutes that it takes to burn everything off of the grill.
