The people in the apartment above me walk around so heavy the ceiling fan and dining room fixture actually shake and make noise, its very annoying. Also they constantly open cabinets and doors then slam them closed. Its been so bad they actually woke up my ten month old son.They wake up around ten every night and this goes on until about four a.m. Im guessing they sleep all day and annoy people all night. So I need some creative advice to annoy them as much as they annoy me. I know I could complain but revenge is so much more fun. Thanks everyone.

I feel they might not know the sound effects of their actions can go through ceilings. give them the benefit of the doubt this time, mention it to them nicely and see what happens. Keep the revenge option until everything else fails.

We lived in a house that was only a downstairs apartment and upstairs apartment. We had the downstairs and when the people moved in upstairs we could not BELIEVE how loud they were! I swear they dropped everything they own at least ten times and then it sounded like everything they moved in they dropped down the stairs and then fell down after it! OMG!!! And not only did it take them a week to move, but they would do it at night and then to make matters worse they would hammer and drill at 10:30 at night after my kids were in bed (even the kids were tired of them). So a few nights before we moved out, the boys and I agreed (around 11 pm) that they wanted to listen to the ipod (through the big and loud speakers) I had in my room. Well, I had to turn it up because they couldn't hear it in their room ALL THE WAY down the hall (in the very next room about 2 ft from our bedroom door) - I had to think of the kids ;o) So we turned it (way) up. The kids actually went to sleep and the funny part is my 5 year locked and closed our bedroom door and it took us until about 1:30 a.m. to get the door open! I hope they liked Offspring, Metallica and anything else we have on the iPod!

The next time they wake you and your baby, take your baby up there and knock on their door and show them the results. Ask them why they are making so much noise. If that doesn't work, complain to the landlord. If that doesn't work, GET REVENGE! Superglue their front door lock. Call the electric company and pretend you are them and have their service cut off. Set up a fax machine to call their phone every 5 minutes (during the day of course). Bang a broom stick on your ceiling during the day. Is it a married couple? Have someone call and tell the woman that her husband is the father of her baby and he better come around and pay his child support like the judge ordered him to do. Have fun!

Revenge only begets revenge. So don't even go there. The next time you pay your rent, apply to move to another apartment, in the same complex so you don't have to pay any penalties. Land lords are usually pretty understanding about this. Now where in the next building do you want your apartment? C'mon put your thinking hat on ... upper most floor. That way YOU are the one on TOP and everyone else has to listen to your slamming of doors, stomping on floor and staying up until wee hours of the day. Never ever under any circumstances does one pick the bottom floor. Even in motels I always insist on the TOP floor.

sounds like thin walls and flooring that's the trouble of living on the bottom floor.Best thing to do is talk to them about problem if possible get one of them to stand in your apartment while the other makes noise might be they don't realize how bad it is below.Understand you wanting revenge but be awhole lot better if you could move for your insanity sake.If all else fails get a ladder and when noise gets bad enough smack a frying pan on ceiling

We lived in a house that replaced into merely a downstairs house and upstairs house. We had the downstairs and while the human beings moved in upstairs shall we not have faith how loud they have been! I swear they dropped each and every thing they very own a minimum of ten situations and then it looked like each and every thing they moved in they dropped down the stairs and then fell down after it! OMG!!! and not merely did it take them a week to flow, yet they could do it at nighttime and then to make concerns worse they could hammer and drill at 10:30 at nighttime after my youngsters have been in mattress (even the little ones have been bored with them). So some nights until eventually now we moved out, the boys and that i agreed (around 11 pm) that they had to hearken to the ipod (in the time of the great and loud audio gadget) I had in my room. nicely, I had to coach it up because of the fact they could not pay attention it of their room each and each of ways down the hall (in the very next room approximately 2 ft from our mattress room door) - I had to think of of the little ones ;o) So we became it (way) up. the little ones actual went to sleep and the humorous section is my 5 12 months locked and closed our mattress room door and it took us until eventually a pair of million:30 a.m. to get the door open! i desire they loved Offspring, Metallica and the rest we've on the iPod!

as much as you think revenge will feel good....Revenge could get you into lots of trouble and just make the problem worse. you have a kid to think about. ask the manager to speak to the people upstairs. there are disturbance laws. calling the cops isn't a bad idea either...but..... if things don't improve ask the manager to move you to another apartment(upstairs) in one of their quieter buildings. last resort....move out of the complex...the constant noise disturbances should void your lease. make sure to talk to the manager first before it comes to that ....document everything..if you have a camcorder or video on your cell record the disturbances. do the right thing.....best of luck !!

Actually Revenge is not always the best answer, it can backfire at you and end up in a Big War. I would complain to your LandLord and let him handle it first. If it continues, you may want to look for another place to move if possible..

U could chuck newspapers at there window
Get revenge by telling the manager of the aparment complex
U could ask the people above them ( if there a third level if u could do something and stomp around like they did

Have your landlord contact their landlord about fixing the problem.
If you go ahead and do revenge, it could escalate, and the last thing your 10 month old son needs is his dad being beaten up or worse. Why not just try to solve it?
