In a city like Los Angeles, you never know which kind of neighbor will turn up at your door. Some mainly keep to themselves and would never bother you unless they really need something or wish to complain about your TV’s volume. However, there are others who seem ready to hand you your next dose of drama instead of a cup of coffee. An LA lash technician recently shared an unusual Ring doorbell recording of a neighbor’s late-night visit that left viewers baffled and amused.
The clip shows a woman in a coral dress and beige slide-on sandals walking in front of the apartment door and mimicking flicking a cigarette at the camera. Throughout the short video, she moves her body in exaggerated motions, making odd hand gestures and leaning close to the camera while whispering repeatedly, “You’re not gonna smoke anymore.” She ends the performance with a dramatic flick of her hand before strolling away.
According to the poster, the neighbor who lives a few units down has a habit of showing up unannounced. “She does deranged stuff like this every couple of weeks,” she noted in her caption. She also clarified that she does not smoke and that the other tenant’s behavior has continued despite there being no apparent cause for complaint.
What People Are Saying About the Los Angeles Ring Footage
Viewers were both amused and unsettled. “The flip flops walking away is taking me out 😭,” one person wrote, highlighting the sound of her exit. Another advised, “It’s probably in the lease agreement that she isn’t allowed to harass you. Just report her to the office and she’ll get a lease violation every time.”
Some questioned the source of the tension. “Are you smoking in your unit or is she?? I would cry if someone next to me smoked inside,” a commenter asked, while another teased, “She was in fact, smoking 💨.” Someone else thought the neighbor wanted attention from the start, adding, “😭😭😭 Chillleee she wants that, you see what she did in the beginning.”
