18 Stories That Prove Living in an Apartment Is Like Having a Front-Row Seat to a Comedy Show
Many of us have probably heard people fighting through the wall or had a neighbor with an unusual pet, or maybe even encountered something worse. Especially if you live in a high-rise building where dramas and comedies happen every single day.
In this article, we put together 18 true stories taken from community chatrooms and personal diaries, which once again prove: we all truly live in the wittiest series called “life.” Scroll down to find out what’s happening behind your neighbors’ doors!
The neighbor loved to talk very loudly. He would tell everything in detail, so I knew his life better than my own. Once, I came home tired, and there he was, buzzing again. I shouted, “Just be quiet already!” — and there was silence.
Then footsteps, a knock on the door—I’m trembling, I open it, and there he stands, looking at me, and calmly says, “Miss, you could have said it more politely. But I appreciate your boldness.”
We recently moved into a brand-new house; it goes without saying that everyone will be drilling and hammering for another 6 months after the house is finished, if not more. We finished in 1.5 months, quietly sitting with my husband during the day.
Then a guy comes over with a shoehorn in hand, and this dialog follows:
— Are you drilling?!
— No, not us.
— Then who is drilling?!
— I don’t know, not our business. It’s a new house; everyone is doing renovations.
— I couldn’t care less who’s doing what!
And he shuts our front door right in our faces.
