‘I brought up banana bread and an apology’: Wholesome friendship blossoms between feuding neighbors after the real culprit of the annoyance reveals himself

Living in an apartment building, there are some annoyances you just have to deal with. For example, someone vacuuming, running around, having a party, etc. But there is an unspoken (sometimes spoken and state in the rules) of appropriate hours for all of these kinds of disturbances. So when someone is making all kinds of noises at 3am, that's not cool, man.

This lady was experiencing a very loud neighbor. He made a commotion most hours of the day, but the most annoying was at 3am. She figured, since he was an avid gym rat, that was probably the hour he was waking up to go to the gym at 4am or something. Finally, on a particularly annoying night, she snapped and hit her ceiling with a broom stick like an old grumpy lady. It worked and the sound stopped, so she went back to sleep. In the morning, she found a note on her door that explained everything, and then she felt bad…

Turns out the neighbor's pet iguana named Pickles was accidentally triggering a water system that made noise every night. They apologized and fixed the problem. Now the woman felt bad and came up with some apologies banana bread. Turns out the two become friends after that and she even gets Pickles updates from time to time.
