In this vibrant cartoon-3D scene, we see a dedicated proctor balancing work and noise control in a busy university residential hall, right where the RAs are loud and lively.

Let’s be honest: college dorms are noisy. Between the midnight pizza parties, impromptu karaoke sessions, and the unmistakable sound of someone learning guitar at 2 a.m., peace and quiet can feel like mythical creatures. But what happens when the very people tasked with enforcing the rules—Resident Assistants—become the noisemakers? Enter u/dark_stallion_99, a proctor at Northeastern University, who found a delightfully petty way to restore silence without saying a word.

You’d think that the RAs—the supposed paragons of residential harmony—would be the first to shut their doors and keep the peace. But as our protagonist discovered, sometimes the guardians of quiet can be the loudest of all. And when diplomacy fails, sometimes you just have to fight noise… with more noise.

Today’s story is a masterclass in petty revenge, featuring one John: self-styled intellectual, full-time slacker, and (unwittingly) the architect of his own downfall.

Picture this: You're a part-time university computer lab assistant, tasked with helping students print assignments and reset their forgotten passwords. Your colleague, John, is the full-timer who sees himself as the misunderstood genius of the department. His greatest fear? Being replaced in his sweet gig, which mostly consists of browsing the web and curating the finest internet playlists on the university’s dime. So, when you show up—even with zero overlap in shifts—John’s paranoia goes into overdrive. What happens next is both hilarious and deeply satisfying for anyone who’s ever dealt with a toxic coworker.

In this vibrant anime scene, we see the long-term bully facing an unexpected moment of embarrassment, showcasing the emotional twists of high school life. This illustration perfectly captures the tension and surprise of the story shared in our blog post!
