edit: gOOD thing the Taiwanese are pretty used to NOISE. Unlike these ITALIANs
Do you remember the foreigner who was literally hacked into pieces in his Hsinchu home for daring to ask his neighbor to be quiet?
You mean, you can’t kill your neighbors if you don’t like the noise they make?
Geez, so many rules.
:fume: pls give us the details (didnt hear bout that one)

Guy was an American or Canadian, forget which. A software engineer who worked for a decent company, but he was working from home. Poor guy was trying to write code but his bitch next-door neighbor insisted on having screaming matches with various ‘friends’ right outside his front door. Apparently he went out and asked her to go inside or somewhere else to make that noise and that prompted an argument. He gave up on the whole thing. The next day, or a couple days later a bunch of guys knocked on his door, and when he opened it, burst into his apartment. Another neighbor later found his door open, the apartment awash with blood, and his body parts spread all over it.
It made the papers. The cops did arrest the goons who chopped the guy up, and they fingered the neighbor who hired them for the job. I think she also got time for conspiracy.
Wow. All the stories I see on here make me glad for my neighbors minor quirks, like letting their kids spend hours dropping marbles in the hallway. I never understood the “drop + roll” noise I heard night after night as I read in my living room until I moved the shoe rack and found a pile of marbles underneath. I’ll take that any day, for sure!

There was also that American technical writer who worked for Mitac in Taipei. He was stabbed with a fruitknife after yelling at a (drunk) neighbor over a party she was having.
I think you should change the thread title; just because they were noisy doesn’t mean they deserve to be labelled ‘monsters’. Haven’t they suffered enough?
uh…i referred to the killers as the monsters !! you KNOW that right??
Jeez! I can’t believe some of the stories I hear around here sometimes. That’s just unreal. Is it mostly just southern Taiwan where this stuff happens?
No. Apparently it happens in Italy as well.
