I had a horrible interfering neighbour who would complain about any old bollocks but he favoured banging on the door and screeching abuse directly in your face. I’d just ignore anyone sending an anonymous letter.
People with little to be doing.
“it’s not on. Turn them fucking off.” confuses me.
Throw up the Christmas lights in the morning
“It’s people like you that we will have cuts”
“It’s not on”
Guess again fucknut.
40W ie 5W LED – costs fuck all to run, some fool spent the cost to run the light for 2 years – on the stamp alone.
Here’s what you do….
Fair enough turn of the light whatever, but put up a solar light so she can’t say shit about it 😂
Take a scan of it. Stick it on lampposts around the area with the title “do you recognise this handwriting?”
There was a girl on my in laws Road that used to send them letters about the cat flap banging all night and how they were doing it on purpose.
She had mental health problems god bless her and with treatment seems like she is doing good these days, works in medicine now I’m not sure what but got a degree.
I seen her let a roar at knicknackers the other day but I think they were just annoying her, I don’t think she’s going to post any letters to them.
I wonder how many “neighbours” received the letter…
Oh it’s on .
It would be Viva Las Vegas at my place.
What it’s €2.10 post a letter now did it not use be like 90c
Get a spot light haha
It always amazes me how little some people have to do.
Watch out Shox, this is the kind of weirdo that will flip one day and stab you in the back when taking your shopping out of the car!
Expat HOA (home owner association) president from the US?
This is unironically an /r/Ireland user I’m utterly convinced
Put up more lights
They paid for postage??
This would only tempt me to keep them on and sicken the cowardly fucker!
If i’ve learned anything from this subreddit its that Irish people have a very poor concept of power generations , usuage and what it should cost.
I like to leave mine on as a sign that I’m to wealthy for the energy crisis to be an issue for me. It’s more a subtle flex.
We have a neighbour opposite our back who, every evening puts on what I can only describe as a floodlight. It manages to shine through the middle of the curtains and onto my eye line when I’m trying to sleep.
I don’t care about their electric bill but hooooly shit it’s annoying
Wasted a lot of precious paper sending that letter
I have an outside light but never turn it on, we don’t really have any need.
But I’m going to start to turn it on now, just to spite this one.
“?!”
Followed by “!!”
Followed by underlining the word “off”.
Followed by spending €2.10 on a stamp so they won’t be seen shoving it through the letter box.
The letter writer must have been fuckin’ raging while writing that. And they probably fumed for ages before finally breaking and getting out the pen and paper.
Nothing wrong with getting the Christmas lights up early
I’m shocked that they went out to the trouble of spending €2.10 on a stamp, when they could have put it in the letter box themselves.
imagine thinking your neighbour’s porch light will cause power cuts when data centres are right there
“Well sir, we’ve finally narrowed down the socket that blew the network. It was the o’neills at 12 Cobble Grove, as we suspected. The bastards left the porch light on.”
I remember going to the office during lockdown and all the lights were on because of security’s hourly checks and one person would keep the entire floor lit, even those stupid decoration lights with 15 bulbs would be on for no reason. Now in the company I work all the PCs are on 24/7. There is no option to shut them down. My point is why do people still think it’s us little guys the problem?
Blow the letter up to billboard size, mount it into the front garden with some spotlights pointed on it
Neighbour writes letter about 5W light, then hops into a 10,000W electric shower to calm down.
This is what happens when idiots are given a little too much fear mongering information that they don’t understand.
The government have been told and told that the grid needs improvement and we need to expand our power generation.
They’ve done nothing.
I’m not turning my lights off. If we get blackouts- maybe they’ll do something.
If they reckon they’ve the money to join nato – they can build a bloody power plant.
I used to rent from one of the biggest cheapskates I’ve ever met. I rented one half of a duplex. The whole building shared one utility meter, so utilities were included in the rent.
In the winter I’d leave the porch light on during the day because I would get home after dark and didn’t feel safe walking to the front door in the dark. The front porch was big which would have made it easy for someone or something to hide there in the dark.
One day my landlord called me. He was furious that I was “wasting electricity” by leaving the light on during the day. I explained to him about the safety issue and told him that we could resolve the matter if he added a motion detector to the light. Checkmate. He didn’t want to spend the time and money doing that. Ha! I’m glad I don’t live there anymore.
I leave the outside lights on all night.
It’s two 2W bulks.
I don’t have a TV. My lights use less power than 1 hour of TV watching.
I don’t think the general understanding of what uses lots of electricity and what doesn’t is very good.
God this is so ignorant. Sure try and reduce your electricity bills and lets not be wasteful. But a fucking 60w equivalent LED bulb (most common type now) left on for 12 HOURS every day for a month. Care to guess how much electricity it uses? 65 cent. Probably less energy than the calories used to rant and rave and write this angry letter.
“It’s not on”
what a cunty attitude. Whoever wrote that can be shipped to the front lines asap.

Apologies, reposted to better sensor the address
That is gas! Haha
A stamp isn’t 2.10 now is it?
