Living beneath a revolving door of noisy upstairs neighbors is exhausting.

Especially when late-night partying and stomping around become the norm.

Fed up with the sleepless nights, this tenant decides that if they can’t sleep, why should their neighbors? Cue the 5 a.m. wake-up routine.

Keep me up all night? Fine we’re all waking up early

I live in an apartment building on the ground floor.

I have a corner unit so I share 1 wall with 1 unit, my upstairs neighbors. The unit above me has a constant stream of sub-letters that cycle in and out about once a month.

They always make their presence known to the downstairs occupants.

The current occupants are a nightmare.

They party and scream and stomp around until 2-3am multiple times a week.

It didn’t take long to get fed up with this behavior.

After the first few nights of this, I hit a breaking point and decided, all of us are waking up early.

I typically try to keep my home workouts quiet (use headphones and stay away from my noisier equipment until the afternoon).

No more niceties from this downstairs neighbor!

But my 5am alarm is now the bullhorn hooked to my beats speaker, my music is now boosted bass dubstep, and my loud bike trainer is my warm up.

Enjoy the hangover, jerks!

Not so fun when they’re the ones getting woken up, huh?

Sometimes you have to fight noise with more noise.

Bagpipes are the preferred method of petty revenge for this redditor.

This user had a group of neighbors collectively revolt against inconsiderate neighbors.

It seems this tenant got their message through to their neighbors loud and clear.

Late-night antics come with an early-morning price.
