Neighbors can get particularly testy with one another when it comes to their dogs. Let's be honest: people tend to go above and beyond for their own pets. If they break something, it's fine. If they go to the bathroom where they're not supposed to, they get a free pass. If they act out in public, all is forgiven and it's probably someone else's fault. However, we simply do not extend the same courtesy to other people's dogs. If they break something, they're out of control. If they go to the bat…

When one looks for a place to live, they have to consider all kinds of different elements that would allow them to have the best experience living there. Some of those may be - The size of the house, the cost, the neighborhood, and how close it is to a supermarket, a mall, or even a school. Those are all different elements that people have to think about when they are in the process of looking. Another extremely important element is the parking situation in the area and making sure you have you…

The sun may be coming out this week, but the Karens of the world seem to be shining even brighter. This week, we have a plethora of Karens to dissect, analyze, and fear. The first is the spouse of someone serving in the military, who is demanding free stuff everywhere she goes. Then, we have a Karen who tried to make a customer service representative try on her sweaty earbuds. Next, we have a Danish Karen with the hair and everything who accused innocent tenants hanging around in their own apar…

Ahh yes… Parking disputes. A source of disputation between neighbors for as long as man has employed means of vehicular transport that needed to be stored somewhere in times of disuse. The need for storage space has long been a source of petty territorial badgering, especially when your neighbor has stored their carriage in the most convenient part of the communal space where you had been intending to store yours. The level-headed thing to do would be to park yours in the less convenient place…

A man was housesitting at his partner's parent's house when he got the late night munchiess. At 1 a.m., he decided to browse through his food delivery apps to see what could satisfy his craving. His choice was a Slurpee and candy from a nearby 7/11. While waiting for his food, he fell asleep. The next morning, he went to check on his food only to find it missing and the police at his door. Apparently, the food was delivered to some unsuspecting neighbors who thought the police needed to be invo…

If you're going to be a Karen, you better be able to face the consequences of your actions.

If you have good neighbors , count your blessings. As the people in this thread below can tell you, having bad neighbors can interfere with your life in endless ways. U/Collins71514 was curious to know people's stories of the pettiest things their neighbors ever did . There were a surprising amount of stories with a common theme: neighbors who were determined to move their property line. It doesn't matter if it's just a couple of inches or a few feet. These people were utterly determined to get…

When you purchase a home, unfortunately, the neighbors come with it. And you never know what to expect. Are they going to be extremely friendly neighbors who bring over a welcome basket when you first move in, or are you going to get the neighbor who keeps to themselves, leading you to think they could be a possible secret spy but you'll never find out because they never come out of their house? Either way, either other is better than getting stuck next to an entitled Karen who will call the co…

It's not every day you hear about someone having a positive experience with their local HOA . It seems like 95% of the time, people share stories complaining about how controlling their HOAs are. A lot of Home Owner's Associations, or HOAs for short, have a habit of doling out fines for the pettiest little reasons. Some people have been fined for things like parking their cars in their own driveways, or for placing those little signs on their lawn that advertise the landscaper who trimmed the g…

Whatever happened to minding your own business? Sure, we may stalk celebrities and acquaintances on social media, but that's entirely separate from legitimately spying on the people in your life. In this instance, we have a nosy neighbor who had been feuding with this Redditor for years. It all started when the neighbor built a fence that went two feet into the Redditor's property, and after they were forced to correct their mistake, they never forgave the Redditor. The Redditor subsequently bu…

This scenario is ripe for some petty payback. The first time this Redditor received a delivery intended for a different apartment down the hall, they did not think much of the situation. They simply concluded that it must have been a mistake or the delivery person was buzzing any apartment number just to enter the building. However, the next time it happened, they started to put the pieces together. They realized that the entitled Karen down the hall kept listing the Redditor's apartment number…

This might sound completely ridiculous, but before anyone thinks of buying a car, they should really consider whether or not they have a space to park it where they live. If they don't, then they simply should not buy a car. Another thing they should absolutely not do is assign a random public area in their neighborhood to be their own personal parking space because A. It's illegal, and B. It is just going to create an uncomfortable situation with the neighbors. But still, some people buy cars…

This family has to have one of the worst neighbors out there. After over ten months of their ongoing feud, the family's Karen-neighbor finally got what she deserved. Evicted. It all started when this family got a new neighbor to share their duplex with. They knew nothing about the person who moved in, but her true character quickly came out in their first meeting. She was a middle-aged woman with lots of cats, whom the Original Poster (OP) nicknamed Karen, for good reason. When they first met,…
