…would solve a lot of problems. I’m sure you can think of plenty of situations where some consideration for others would make everything a bit nicer.
Here’s my example.
Dear neighbors,
If you don’t want people to complain about your choice of music, don’t play it loud enough for everyone to hear.
Because honestly, any music that wakes me up in the middle of the night is going to be absolutely horrible. I don’t care that it’s your favorite song or that you have lots of great memories from the 80s. It still sounds horrible at 1 am.
Just let me sleep. I need it.
This makes me sound like a total bore. But I'll make sure to prove that I'm not a boring person by partying some other night, when you want to sleep. We are all such fun people, aren't we? We have no idea how to enjoy ourselves without disturbing others! :D
Actually, I do enjoy myself. Immensely, every day. More days than you seem to enjoy yourself, actually. It's just that my kind of enjoyment doesn't require breaking glass, shouting random crap on the streets in the middle of the night and playing loud music.

Well, Universe seems to be kind enough to grant me a whole night of wonderful, uninterrupted sleep once every two months. I guess it all evens out in the end somehow.
neighbors,
sleep,
having fun,
consideration,
