'The girl downstairs is insane': Grad student gets back at petty Karen neighbor for nonstop noise complaints

If you have a Karen neighbor with a knack for making constant noise complaints, consider moving out of your place as soon as possible. It doesn't matter if you try to reason with her; she won't be reasonable. It doesn't matter if you try to use furniture cups or to get a carpet; she will not budge.  People like that simply cannot be appeased.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/Laserskrivare, a graduate student who is rarely at home anyway. However, when she is at home, she often receives a noise complaint from the Karen downstairs. It started with a gift of furniture cups. The student tried using them, but Karen did not stop. She wound up punching the ceiling every single time the student made a move, including using her tea kettle.
