Ever been kept awake by a noisy neighbour? One student named Lesley certainly was, but rather than suffer in silence, she came up with the ultimate plan for revenge—and it’s got people online cheering. Lesley’s dorm neighbour, Sarah, had a habit of blasting loud music into the early hours, leaving Lesley sleepless and annoyed. When polite requests for quiet were met with dismissive smirks and even louder tunes, Lesley knew she needed a creative solution.
Enter: the revenge alarm. Knowing Sarah hated mornings, Lesley set her alarm for 6:30 a.m. and blasted cheesy pop songs through the wall they shared. The result? Sarah, groggy and irritated, stumbled out to beg for peace by day three. Lesley’s plan worked perfectly; Sarah’s late-night partying stopped, and the silence that followed was the sweetest kind of victory.
Lesley shared her story on Reddit, racking up over 20,000 upvotes. One commenter applauded her saying, “That’s how to deal with late-night noise makers!” Another added, “This is peak dorm justice.” Many agree it’s the perfect revenge: light-hearted, effective, and oh-so-satisfying. Lesley’s advice? Keep it creative and never underestimate the power of a good old taste of one’s own medicine. Would you have done the same? Share your thoughts!
