BERLIN (Reuters) - A German took his female neighbor to court for laughing too loudly. But she had the last laugh -- the judge threw out the case, saying Germany could not ban laughter, newspapers reported on Tuesday.

Unemployed Bernd F., 52, complained to magistrates that 47-year-old Barbara M. kept him awake with over four hours of loud laughter one evening as she enjoyed a meal with eight friends in her Berlin apartment above his, Bild daily said.

3. No, he should have rapelled down the side of the house, stopped

outside her dining room window and started masturbating furiously, that shut up the neighbors the last time I tried it anyway.

4. Yep works everytime

That is too funny.

5. I had a noise problem with a neighbor

I bought one of those CDs with hundreds of different horrible sounds -- bones cracking, women sceaming, beasts growling and howling -- and turned it on just once when the noise I objected to started. The problem stopped, immediately, totally. Very effective.

6. Did n't someone sue a neighbor who played "I will always love you"

by Whitney Houston? I think it was like 12 or so years ago but I remember hearing that news story. Apparently this woman played "And I Will Always love yooooooooooooooou" from "The Bodyguard" soundtrack over and over. The judge ordered her to stop.

7. ack! Now that's in my head

I used to retaliate with neighbors in attached buildings by cranking up the bass on my computer and leaving Q2 in chase-cam mode on an online server and leave for the day.
