Epic Revenge Against Noisy Neighbour: An Ingenious Plan
A woman's crafty retaliation against her inconsiderate neighbor has garnered widespread praise after she shared her story online. The neighbor was notorious for blasting "trash music" at maximum volume all day and night, causing significant unrest among other residents. Despite numerous complaints and even police intervention, the deafening noise continued unabated.
Sharing her experience on Reddit, the woman described her neighbor as the epitome of all bad neighbor habits. The major issue was his incessant loud music, which disrupted everyone’s peace round-the-clock. Even after calling the police at 3 am, who confirmed the noise exceeded permitted decibel levels, the neighbor persisted.
This obstinate loudness was compounded by his bizarre behavior, as he once even called the police on a crying newborn in retaliation for the complaints against him. Additionally, he was known to leer into the woman’s and her underage sister’s windows, leading her to devise a cunning plan for revenge.
Knowing the neighbor’s schedule and his disdain for the sound of chirping birds, she sought permission from other residents and a nearby detailing store to scatter bird seeds on its roof. The store owner agreed, having his own grievances against the noisy man. Within a week, her efforts gathered a "full army of birds," attracting them via seeds, twigs, and water placed around her window.
The highlight of her plot involved releasing 100 crickets, generously supplied by a friend, onto the roof. Though many birds feasted on them, the rest of the insects inevitably found their way to the neighbor's open balcony.
Given that harming the birds is prohibited by law, the woman's block miraculously transformed into a scene akin to a Disney movie, filled with the beautiful sound of chirping birds—and the exasperated cries of a frustrated neighbor. Online commenters lauded her ingenuity and execution, suggesting she even loop-recorded bird songs to amplify the effect.
Praised for the well-thought-out and harmless nature of her revenge, her story resonated as a feel-good tale where no one was hurt or financially damaged—leaving the antagonistic neighbor surrounded by melodious chirps and understandably irate.
