They can't be much louder than a lawn mower or AC unit?

Although, the 8am Sunday lawn mower deserves to have a beer bottle thrown at their head.

I have 1 asshole neighbor that years ago complained about me playing music loud.
One morning a year or two ago he was out mowing his lawn at like 6:30 on a Sunday morning .
I'm usually up early on the weekends so i honestly didn't care, but the hypocrisy was stunning

Just tell the person to shut the fuck up and close their windows and take their ass to sleep.

Yep, while they are hot and you are cooler in your generator place.

Before this thread, I didn't even know generator etiquette was a thing.

Its not like people run those things with the power being fully functional.

Based on the responses here I’d say it’s not a thing and RPB’s buddy was just being a old man yelling at cloud type.

Yea, I guess so. Just the one guy I know and the fb community post saying the neighbor threatened to call the cops on them.

The guy I know is really laid back and cool usually, pretty out of character for him. His wife is different, maybe it was her influence.

I've lived in condos/apartments most of my life so some of this stuff that is specific to houses is a bit of an unknown for me.

Yeah I wouldn’t have thought about this before either but it does seem unreasonable to expect someone to cater their generator usage to your whims during a power outage. That’s different than mowing the lawn at 6 am
