A fed-up man is seeking revenge on his 'entitled' neighbour who installed human-sized wind chimes right outside his window. He shared how his neighbour refuses to take them down - despite knowing they're keeping him up at night with their constant ringing.

He said on Reddit : "What would you do? My neighbour has hung human-sized wind chimes that clang all day. Need inspiration for revenge please! (That won’t annoy us too). We’ve kindly asked a number of times, with no success. The chimes are outside in the wind tunnel between the two houses, and we back onto a 200m space out back so the wind rips through."

Brainstorming some ideas, one user said: "Sign them up for junk mail and free subscriptions? Get a dog that barks every time the wind chimes sound? Mow your yard every time they are enjoying the back yard? Learn to play a musical instrument? Put up a basketball hoop for the neighbourhood kids?"

Another user added: "Don’t learn how to play a musical instrument - just play it and try to pretend you know what you’re doing... you don’t want to be proficient at it at all." A third user said: "Floodlights at night. Get some teenagers to super glue the wind chimes together. Get a wind machine and point it at their house."

One more user added: "Sneak over and shove paper towels inside." However, others took a more serious approach saying they should lodge a noise complaint against them. One user said: "Check with your town if there is a nuisance noise. Get all the neighbors around them to complain." Another user said: "Can you complain to the city/town?"
