This phrase could mean a few different things, and I want to make sure I’m telling the right kind of story for you. Here are the most likely ways to interpret your request:

: A lighthearted or comedic story involving a "lovable" but annoying character who is always getting into trouble for being a voyeur or making inappropriate comments (think Ranma ½ or Master Roshi style).

Was this the kind of "proper story" you were looking for, or did you want something more like a or a historical drama about someone perverting the law? He didn't wave; he didn't even blink

: A more serious, chilling story about a creepy neighbor or stranger whose unsettling behavior hides a darker secret.
