Love camping...eliminates cacklers!

We had a neighbor once, who after a divorce, brought home various floozies from the bar. Cackle? Omg, like a henhouse. And, in the morning, before work, they would spin out as they left the driveway, he being late for work (power company lineman-I don't know how he survived the next day's hangover). He finally married a nice gal, non-drinker and mended his ways.

Never really had a noise problem while camping. One of our hotel stays is another story.

A group of young people came in at midnight and spent the next 3 hours talking loudly and playing music. Management was not helpful though they had received multiple complaints. Worst night of any hotel stay. But it was just that one time.

Have stayed in hotels for 60+ years and that was the only time we've had that happen. Not too shabby of a record.

noise in the cg or at a hotel...if the mgmt. is not helpful then it may be time to bring in law enforcement. disturbing the peace is a misdemeanor.

Just women cackle.

Question per linguistics:

Do men "cackle", or only women? And if the latter, what would be the male equivalent of this phenomenon?

You've been very lucky. I've been in campgrounds where the drunken lady cackling started around 10 PM and lasted for hours.

People talking / laughing in nearby rooms is ok for me. What causes unrest and teeth gritting for me is kids / adults doing gymnastics in the rooms above mine. As they jump and run around, they must walk entirely on the balls of their feet.

My poor rig is socked in behind a mountain of snow and ice, only four more months before it melts.

You're right. Hotel rooms are supposedly designed to be pretty quiet. Cackling sticks out like a sore thumb, while campfire chatter tends to blend in with typical night sounds.

I certainly agree with you. Noise from above and from the rooms on both sides. I like to sleep on my own bed, use my own bathroom, and hear less from my neighbors.
