Residential street but there's two student HMOs close to each other, and they seem really pally with each other this year. Loud, boorish, vanilla wankers. Problem with earplugs is I've had both ear infections and missed alarms as a result of them in the past, so I do this reluctantly.

There's a lot going on, but it's very scenery-chewing, especially that 'tumbling down the stairs' rhythm you get during 'it's the... hardest thing to TAAAAAKE!'. Like Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" in song form.

It won't amaze anyone to learn that men absolutely loved it and responded enthusiastically while a lot of women were repulsed. #totp
