Cranky music.
I have a real-life neighbor who apparently enjoys the band Fall Out Boy. So much so, in fact, that he feels compelled to listen to at least a few songs off the CD multiple times a day at a ridiculous volume. This would not be nearly as bad if not for the fact that I cannot stand the band, and I have a low tolerance for sound systems that are way too heavy on the bass. Normally I can just deal with all this--if only for the fact that his attention span apparently only allows him to listen to a few songs at a time--but today I'm just too cranky to deal with it. I have no stereo, but I've turned my computer up as loud as it can possible go and I'm blasting some music that, imho, is actually not annoying.

You should retaliate by playing a mix CD of Jojo, Cher and Hanson (maybe add in some crappy 80s hair bands for good measure) at high volume, preferably whenever you're out and about and don't have to suffer as well. But then again, given his apparent taste in crappy music...he might like it.
