The Rebuttal

[superbadgirl]

So, my noisy neighor finally responded to the notice issued by management. She was, unsurprisingly, shocked to hear that someone complained about noise and wondered if somehow the wrong apartment had been flagged. After all, she said she's always been a very courteous tenant (This the woman who flew into a rage and pounded on doors when a little birdie slipped a note under her door,demanding to know who'd written it. Yes, that's surely courteous.), and helpful to. It was at this point in her letter that she highlighted all of the good deeds she's done for others (unwelcomed good deeds, mind you), including holding a flashlight for the mailman during the power outage, which several tenants saw her doing (Including "Kerrie" - MAJOR negative points to her for this atrocious misspelling. A kind, nice, courteous neighbor would know how to spell my name.). I've yet to figure out how holding a flashlight means she couldn't possibly be responsible for blasting her TV.

I love the last line in particular - "I hope this helps you to understand that I am not a noisy tenant."

Annnnnhhhh. Wrong, honey. You listing your own fabulous attributes doesn't really count as a defense. What else would you possibly say? Also, your high opinion of yourself speaks more to your qualities as a person than any of the marvellous things you've done.

Seriously, she's completely oblivious that none of her neighbors really like her. No one wants to say it, because Miss Mary Sunshine turns into the devil incarnate at the drop of a hat.
