No one is more sarcastic than a determined teenager. It's like they have a special knack for it. And since their teachers spend hours with them each week, they're bound to be on the receiving end of that sarcastic sense of humor now and again.

'Only go out and plow if I tell you to': County road supervisor makes a snowy mistake during morning rush hour

'Only go out and plow if I tell you to': County road supervisor makes a snowy mistake during morning rush hour

This new boss was surprised that some older employees knew better than he did. That was hardly a surprising outcome to the employees, but new managers often feel like they have to make a good impression by bossing everyone around. After all, if they're hired to lead, they think that the most visible way to demonstrate that is to make changes to their workplace immediately. In reality, if they just spent a few minutes talking to their most dedicated employees, they'd probably find out which chan…

'Your wife was intending to destroy my water lines during a winter storm': Several neighbors discover the neighborhood Karen is freezing pipes overnight, leaving them without running water

In a quiet neighborhood, there's a strange story about a neighbor who's a bit of a Karen, but not the loud type. Instead of causing a scene in public, she sneaks around at night, quietly planning her revenge. That is, until her neighbor caught her on video, promoting the OP to file a police report against her. Once the word got out in the neighborhood, it was soon revealed that the OP wasn't the only one dealing with Karen's mysterious actions. It turns out she's been sneaking around to...

'I'm never touching your truck again': Neighborly ritual goes wrong, leading to resident's refusal to assist his neighbor after a snowstorm

Keeping a cordial relationship with your neighbors is vital. It's the kind of connection where I scratch your back and you scratch mine. You don't have to be best buddies who hang out 24/7, but at the very least, you should be considerate of them. The story below is an account of a frustrated and petty neighbor. This man is one of the nicest people I've ever heard of, so don't let his current status fool you. I would stop at nothing to have him as a neighbor. It was a wintry, stormy night when…

'Do it later, or not at all': Farmers teach a lesson to city folks after they make 'smell complaints [and] noise complaints'

'Do it later, or not at all': Farmers teach a lesson to city folks after they make 'smell complaints [and] noise complaints'

These city people had a lot to learn about life in the country . A few years back when everyone was stuck indoors for a year or so, lots of people couldn't handle it. Especially for city dwellers, being cooped up inside made it feel like we were trapped. For people who had the money to do so, moving to the countryside seemed like a great solution. They could be properly isolated from others while actually having space to roam around, garden, or take walks. But since this was such a last-minute…

'I believe that's the coldest I've ever been': Mom insists kid do a chore for her after the kid had just fallen in a river

One mom came to regret her phrasing when talking to her kid. On a snowy day, when you've been outside in the freezing cold , coming inside to warm up is a wonderful feeling. Whether it's sipping on a bowl of soup or holding a warm mug of tea, that feeling of getting warmth back into your shivering body is very much needed. Some people even put blankets in the dryer for a few minutes so that they're toasty warm. This sounds like pure luxury---what a cozy feeling that must be. This is especially…

‘I took... everything’: Roommates try driving housemate out, so she leaves, taking all the furniture with her

Unless you move in together with your best friend, chances are you are going to roll the dice and live with a roommate or two. The dice will spin around a few times until it plops onto a number that makes you gasp in delight, or grumble in despair. This woman got unlucky and found herself being slowly but painfully driven out by her roommates who were planning to kick her out. Once she caught a whiff of that, she realized she had to comply with her lease, and the quicker the better. So she set…

'I just lost it laughing': Karenzilla accosts a minimum wage worker and tries to steal another customer's snow tires; gets put in her place and run out of the store

Snow season is upon us in the northern States and like they do every season, some residents seem to have forgotten the importance of appropriate snow-gear. Somehow every year, there are procrastinators (who are apparently incapable of checking the weather forecast) that are neglecting to make appropriate arrangements for the upcoming snow days. Karens everywhere are ready to accost their local minimum wage workers, morphing into their final form as the rudest, most entitled customers in town.

'We wait even longer for a third tow truck to arrive': Service tech tries to reschedule appointment located on steep hill, gets themself and numerous other vehicles stuck

This service tech is used to driving to jobs in different neighborhoods, but they weren't prepared for this weather. In any job, if your boss has your back, it makes your life a lot easier. However, many managers think that their employees are always trying to be sneaky or deceitful. They have no trust in their decision-making abilities…even though they presumably hired them for such qualities. This person, u/EmuExternal6244, shared a story from a snowy day on the job. As a lead service tech, t…

‘The heavily soaked ceiling caved in… I had to act’: Tenant gets even with landlord after complaints about leaks during rainy season are met with silence

‘The heavily soaked ceiling caved in… I had to act’: Tenant fills basement with garbage bags before vacating, after complaints to landlord about leaks during rainy season that were met with silence

Landlords often escape their responsibilities by… not being responsible and ignoring tenants' complaints, duh. Of course, there are some good ones out there (we appreciate you), but the number of landlords I have personally gone through that would not answer my calls in regards to leaks (during a rainy season, no less), moldy ceilings and issues with running water are a dime a dozen, so I can relate to the OP. What happened? Well, u/upset_pachyderm had the displeasure of renting from a landlord…

Sure! Call the land owner

'She... demanded I be "banned for life"': Snowboarding teen tells a Karen to 'call the land owners'

This woman was incensed that a teenager would dare to snowboard around her, but she didn't know who she was speaking to. Snow sports can be a great source of entertainment during the winter months. Instead of being cooped up inside, you can head to a ski slope or mountainous area and strap on your skis or snowboard . It's a wonderful way to get some fresh air, exercise, and adrenaline. Naturally, many trails for snowboarding or skiing are public areas — you have to share the space. This Karen a…

'They have zero etiquette': Guy serves ice cold revenge to neighbor who steals his freshly shoveled parking space

Snow shoveling is a grueling task, and one that basically no one wants to do. On r/pettyrevenge , this OP shared their own tale of revenge, served cold, to an annoying neighbor . However, the commenters are completely split on who is wrong in this situation. Disputes with neighbors can be messy, especially when it comes to shared spaces like a parking lot or street parking. Plus, as some commenters pointed out, there are different sorts of rules depending on where you're from, and the severity…

'I poured water on his windshield': Man freezes out his neighbor after snow shoveling snafu

These neighbors aren't going to be on friendly terms after this guy's ice cold revenge! “It was a cold winter day,” writes u/topathemornin. They told this excellent tale of very petty revenge, and as they claim, there was about 8 inches of snow outside, with temperatures dipping into the negatives. The OP began shoveling out their two cars. They dug out their own SUV, and then also shoveled a second place for their wife's Prius. The trouble started after the OP and their wife made a trip in the…
