You'd hope that it would never come to this, as when things get this bad this close to home, there's no way no one is walking away without any proverbial bruises. And unless the offenses are d…

'He comes over at odd hours of the night': Disgruntled apartment dweller exposes neighbor's affair because it's effecting their sleep

Exposing someone's unethical acts of infidelity, not because of any moral qualms, but because of how it's affecting you… Does this qualify as chaotic good?.. Like, you're doing a net-good act, but for somewhat petty and selfish reasons. But—hey, a lack of sleep can drive anyone to extraordinary ends, and when something—like a noisy and inconsiderate neighbor—is annoying at the best of times… lack of sleep makes what would usually be teeth-grindingly annoying into something completely unbearable…
