QUESTION 24


Dear Mr. Joker

Hello. I have a problem with my next door neighbor, they keep playing their music very, very loud and it keeps me up nearly all night! I'd be lucky if I got a half an hour's rest. The landlord won't do anything about it! After all, it's their brat that's doing it! What should I do? I'm getting desperate here!

PS... Why are you obsessed with the big ugly bat anyway? Or are you two bedmates? That would explain why you're always yearning after him.

Sincerely, Brennen
