<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

[This petty revenge] reminded me of this.

I live in an apartment in a university town, but the majority of people in my building are young/middle age professionals and grad students.  A young show off-y type moves in directly below me and he has his sound system blasting.  As most will know, what travels through walls is bass, thats why you 'feel' the low end. (has something to do with the shape of the sound waves -- i dunno) So i'm casually sitting on my couch reading a book and i start to hear the thump of his system getting louder and louder to the point that i can make out what song is playing.  Hearing the 'highs' through a cement floor gives me a sense of just how ridiculously loud it is.

So I call my super and say that i dont really care about some noise, but the volume is so far beyond what could be considered reasonable i had to say something.  She says she's gotten numerous calls from other residents, but cant do anything about noise between 9am-11pm.  

So i leave things be and wake up the next morning.  I'm sitting at my desk working, the clock strikes 9, and something clicks in my mind.  It was more instinctual, than thought out.  

I dont have a fancy sound system, but i do play guitar and have a 40W tube amp.  So i lay it on its side so the speaker is facing the ground, turn it to 11 ([yes my amp has an '11' setting] and just attack my guitar for a good 20 minutes.  

I leave it at that. I haven't heard my neighbours music since.
<bot>: my amp is louder than your speakers, and its better to wake someone up at 9am, than to annoy them at 11pm
