> be me> need normal sleep schedule because work + uni> gotta wake up 8:00 AM regularly> parents divorced so split time between mum/dad houses> both houses same problem somehow> have 18 y/o NEET little brother> no job, barely any school obligations, free to exist like a cave goblin> stays up until 6-7 AM every night watching youtube/anime/gaming> sounds whatever until> every few hours he does turbo piss runs to bathroom> slams bedroom door open> stomps/runs to toilet> slams door again on return> wakes me up at 2 AM, 5 AM, 6 AM etc> once awake takes forever to sleep again> sleep quality destroyed> dying for work/uni while goblin wakes up at 4 PM fresh as daisies> tried earplugs + white noise> doesn’t stop door slams> tried talking to him> “yeah bro I’ll improve”> next night same shit> tried talking to parents> they lightly scold him> no enforcement because their rooms are farther away and they don’t hear it> tried retaliation once> got woken up, later knocked on his door around noon> he bursts out enraged saying it wasn’t him and he’d been asleep since 1 AM> somehow furious after alleged 11 hours sleep> had to apologize because no proof> anons what to do?> need sleep for real responsibilities> little bastard is dragging me down with him> ethical and unethical solutions welcome
>>34487182You have no choice, move out or go to war with him. Make his life hell. Or I guess you could try bribes, buy something for yourself he wants and don't let him use it until he stops.
>>34487256yupit's move out or warconsistently fucking up your sleep is damaging your health "next time you harm me by waking me up, I'm punching you in the face"
>>34487182Stick some foam padding in the door frame so it doesn't slam so loudly. Oil those hinges while you're at it.Teach him the forbidden art of the piss bottle so he doesn't have to leave his room.I'm not sure about unethical solutions. Most will be context dependent and have a chance of backfiring.
>>34487182You should leave him stay neet and comfy, you fag.
>>34487182Two options:>One night when he wakes you up with his stomping and noise, get up from bed and beat the shit out of him. Beat him with a belt or whatever you have on hand. Smack the shit out of him (open hand). Crack his TV. Pick up his gaming system and slam it against the wall. Give him the months of correction he needs all at once, and make it known you will do so again. Put a fear and respect in him that he clearly doesn't have and doesn't instilled in him by your parent>Move out
>>34487182How can you be NEET and have some school obligations?
If you had beat him into a pulp since young, he would never dare
>>34487182You should join him
>>34489237Yeah technically he's not a NEET but in practice he is which is why I called him so. The goblin has to do 1/2 things per week 'online' for like an hour max
>>34487585Most rational advice IMO; don't know if parent's allow any form of modificaiton though (they are autistic af (guess i got the 'tism from them))
>>34490470Stop calling your brother a goblin
>>34489231genuinely considering option 1option 2 is already in motion, just 5 more months of this shit
>>34487182Stagger when you're at mom's house and dad's house when he's not there.
