Am I a bad person??

I'm sorry about your problem, iGary. But instead of offering useful suggestions, I'll tell you a story that your thread brings to mind, about the time an accomplice and I pulled a prank on a high school friend.

Late one schoolnight, we snuck off with her car using a key one of her family members lent us, and changed her horn to one that plays La Cucaracha. Then we snuck the car back and figured she'd discover our trick sometime in the coming days. It rained that night, by the way.

Well, as it turns out, she found out the very next morning. In the morning when another car got too close she hit the horn and it played a warbly gargly version of La Cucaracha. We hadn't positioned the horn right and water had gotten in there!

Nevertheless, she was properly surprised, we were able to fix the horn so it played La Cucaracha normally, and she enjoyed her surprise gift after that. And she probably killed the family member who lent us the key.

More subtle approach or slash the tires?

The more subtle approach, reprogram the alarm.

Would be nice to hear the say ...

"I AM A PIECE OF JUNK", "MY OWNER IS A DORK", ect. when it comes on.

and

"HOORAY, I'VE BEEN STOLEN" with a nice evil laugh when the alarm goes off.

Usually alarm don't protect, they just annoy you and make people want to beat the car owner to death.
 
Have someone steal the car, when the owner turns up leave a tape recorder on the sidewalk with a recorded message on a loop "This car has been stolen, this car has been stolen..."

It seriously says "This car is armed?" How can a car be armed?

Don't you remember James Bond's Lotus Esprit with the self-exploding alarm?

FOGHORN

" back off you Bastar** ! or i'll break your leg's "

FOGHORN

" back off you Bastar** ! or i'll break your leg's "

FOGHORN

I always thought that was a little too in-your-face. I like the more subtle method used in South Africa. So likely that someone would still their car some South Africans kept a bottle of poisoned whiskey in the glove-box knowing that the thief would search the car and likely down the spirit. You may still lose your car but at least someone got what they deserved.
*does not condone....necessarily*
 
Is there some sort of local government 'noise control' office that you can report this to? At 5pm you might not have much of a leg to stand on, but if it's going off in the middle of the night and causing a disturbance then you should be able to report this and have them forced into turning it off. I certainly wouldn't stand for it!!

*don't mess with me!*
