Pretty sure my neighbors have experimented with the putrid octopus chowder as well. Since moving to Iowa from Chicago I have discovered the magic of plastic to keep the windows from sucking all the heat out of my apartment, I have been so tempted to plastic their door in attempt to keep their stench in their unit... Come on, why can't they climb out their living room window, we are on the ground floor?! It would totally help keep their 2 year old contained, he has discovered the art of opening doors and escaped this summer (I helped catch the little bugger, that'll teach his poor dad for turning his back). Thankfully they either trained him or it is too cold for him to want to go joy toddling. Course if I were living in that apartment I would want to run away too, if it smells that bad in the hallway I don't even want to imagine what it smells like inside!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076041415469800377.post-59430404252848401222008-02-02T09:59:00.000-06:002008-02-02T09:59:00.000-06:00lol That's a great recipe-- sounds similar to the ...lol That's a great recipe-- sounds similar to the putrid octopus chowder my neighbors like.<BR/><BR/>Our neighbors definitely sound related-- I wonder if they're all nice because they know their food stinks, or if they're just passive aggressive and boil garbage on purpose whenever they go out to eat.<BR/><BR/>I get the open door treatment year-round (thankfully not every day) because in the winter, the heat has to run at full steam just to keep us from freezing to death up on the third floor, so everyone downstairs has to open doors and windows occasionally to bleed some heat out.<BR/><BR/>Not sure why the landlord doesn't just invest in some better weatherproofing up here, but oh well.LiteralDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16704368269389527451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076041415469800377.post-11293212970691698982008-02-02T01:49:00.000-06:002008-02-02T01:49:00.000-06:00I have new neighbors that manage to stink up my ha...I have new neighbors that manage to stink up my hallway with their cooking stench. Whenever I have guests I rush them inside so as not to contaminate my air with the pollutants in the hallway, usually as they are asking me what the smell is. My hypothesis, they are making putrid fish stew as follows:<BR/>Put fish in pot with warm water.<BR/>Put pot on stove.<BR/>Leave at room temperature until bacterial count exceeds 1,000,000,000 bacterial cells per ml of water.<BR/>Turn burner on low and simmer 5 hours and enjoy.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps our neighbors are either related or have the same cookbook. I now consider myself lucky that at least it only invades my hallway and not my actual apartment! At least they are really nice. I can't wait until it is warm enough to prop the building door open again!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
