I didn't say that you can't win, I said it was a No Win Situation. You've proved you're the bigger asshat, but you've also destroyed yer relations with yer neighbour, you've made it into an adversarial contest and you pave the way for future confrontations and escalations over future problems. It is better to open a dialogue right at the beginning.
But hey, whatever, I understand it's much more FUN to talk about blasting yer neighbours with Metal Machine Music.
