21-year-old engineering student cuts Wi-Fi after gamer girl cousin refuses to turn the sound down while gaming at 1 AM: "She should be more respectful"

I have been out of school for a while now, and let me tell you, I do not miss it. There are some adults that long for the days where their goals were clearer and their life was dictated and schedulted by an external force. Entering the adult world where you have to make your own decisions and work towards your own goals with no one nudging you to commit can be a really difficult transition. I certainly struggled with that in my early twenties, but I don't miss having to write essays or study for subjects that I had little interest in.

In our story today, a young man is struggling to study for his exams. It's not a lack of interest that is making this task difficult – it's the gaming noises coming from the living room at 1 AM. When his gamer girl cousin refuses to listen to his plead for silence, he takes matters into his own hands and starts cutting the Wi-Fi for some peace of mind.

I completely understand where our protagonist is coming from. She didn't listen to him when he asked her politely to keep it down. However, he jumped to some pretty extreme measures before going to his parents about it.

Thankfully, his parents were on his side in the end. His education is a lot more important than her right to be loud at night. In any case, she can still game and enjoy her free time will being concientious of other people.
