Maybe the next time your neighbors smoke and do meth don’t report it because that’s a snitch move I don’t care if you don’t like the smell it’s not going to kill your gosh!

Can this smell travel through shared sewage pipes? There's occasionally a smell that comes from one of our bathrooms and we reckon it's a neighbour pouring a shitload of chemicals down the toilet. Maybe it's something else like meth I don't know. It's weird though, like polystyrene.

If the buildings vent stack is operating properly smells shouldn't be coming out of the drains, no matter how much they pour down it.

If the vent stack is clogged or insufficiently sized, air could be forced up through the traps, but you'd be smelling sewer gas too. It's a really rank smell you'd notice, so I think the polysytrene smell is probably coming in some other way.

Hmmm it's not a shared building it would be a shared street connection for a row of properties before connecting into the main sewage.
