UPDATE: A woman at university has gone viral for her “epic” revenge against a noisy neighbor who routinely blasted music until 2 AM. After repeated requests for quiet were ignored, she took matters into her own hands, sparking a wave of support online.
In a post shared on Reddit, the woman recounted her struggles with her neighbor, identified as Sarah, who showed little regard for others’ need for sleep. Describing her exasperation, she wrote, “Every night she’d blast music at 1 AM or 2 AM, usually when I had an early class.” Despite multiple pleas for her to lower the volume, Sarah dismissed them, insisting, “Relax, it’s college.”
The breaking point came one night before an important exam when she knocked on Sarah’s door, hoping for a peaceful night’s sleep. Instead, Sarah only turned the volume up louder. Feeling frustrated and determined, she devised an ingenious plan for revenge.
“I laid in bed staring at the ceiling, absolutely fuming,” she noted. The next morning, after acing her exam, she executed her plan. Knowing Sarah was notorious for sleeping in until noon, she set her alarm for 6:30 AM and strategically placed her Bluetooth speaker against the shared wall.
For an entire week, she blasted the cheesiest pop songs from the early 2000s, ensuring Sarah woke up “groggy and furious.” By day three, Sarah was pleading for her to stop. The woman recalled her sweet response: “I just smiled and said, ‘Relax, it’s college.'”
Remarkably, by the end of the week, the late-night music sessions came to an abrupt halt. While Sarah never admitted defeat, the newfound silence was a victory for the woman.
Social media users have rallied behind her, with one commenter sharing a similar story of retaliation against noisy neighbors. “I was a shift worker,” they wrote, describing how they would return home at 6:30 AM and blast music directly onto their neighbors’ wall. “The complaints from them were glorious.”
Another user praised her actions as “the perfect kind of revenge—petty, harmless, but effective.”
This incident highlights the ongoing struggle many face with inconsiderate neighbors, igniting discussions about noise tolerance and community living. As more people share their own stories of retaliation, this woman’s clever payback has struck a chord, resonating with anyone who has ever lost sleep due to thoughtless behavior.
