We all know that it's not easy to keep a home pristine, but these things are going to be quite difficult to keep clean at all! The thing about cleaning is that you're never really done with it for good. You could spend a whole weekend sweeping, vacuuming, dusting, and scrubbing your home from top to bottom. But still, within just a few hours, you'll find dishes piled up in the sink and dust bunnies on the floors. You just have to try your best with the little time you have. Some people bought t…

This snow shoveler knows they were being petty towards their neighbor , and they do not care one bit. In some parts of the world, snow days are still quite common. Some storms can dump buckets of the white stuff, leaving people to dig out their cars while their kids build snow forts. Shoveling a driveway or digging your car out can take ages. You have to scrape the snow from the windshield, dig out the tires, scrape the ice from the door handles, and after all that's done, you still need to dig…

Pretty sure that's illegal...

We'll do anything for our pets . We buy them treats and toys, we kiss them and snuggle them, we drive them to the vet or to their favorite places to play. It's so great to have a fuzzy little dude running around your house who loves you like crazy, bites you sometimes, and always wants to cuddle up and hang out with you. However, a lot of landlords don't care how cute your cat, dog, bird, or rabbit is: they're simply not allowed in your apartment. So some people lie to their landlords, insistin…

"He's also a landlord for another property and knows that you need to keep heat on at least 60 to be legal and up to code."

The roommate was given three separate warnings... can't really blame the woman at this point.

"I told them I'd take that recording to the dean if they didn't make things right."

"Using the legal background of my fiancé, we send a strongly worded letter building on my input. As a result the landlord paid the deposit in full two weeks later and I never heard back of him."

Home is supposed to be a sanctuary. We all want to have a place where we can kick off our shoes after a long day of work, put our feet up, eat dinner with our families, throw parties, play in the yard with the kids, and spend time with the ones we love. It's supposed to be the one place you can relax and be yourself… but not if these strict HOAs have anything to do with it. Homeowner's Associations are like the hall monitors of the adult world. Their whole job is to keep the neighborhoods looki…

Getting in a squabble with your landlords or landladies can be so awkward… U/Corrid21 found that out firsthand when they had to move apartments . As if moving wasn't stressful enough, thanks to all the packing and cleaning you have to do, this person's landlady just can't stop showing up at her apartment to show the property to prospective buyers. This person was wondering if they were in the wrong here for their approach to getting back at the landlady. On the one hand, the landlady does have…

“[He left] a note stating if I can't do what was agreed upon he would evict me.”

These people have a story or two they could tell you about their wackiest neighbors . You never really know a person until you live with them. The same goes for neighbors: you get to know them the longer you live around them. You start to learn what time they leave for work each day, you hear their parties or squabbles with their spouses, and you'll certainly start to recognize the signs of weird habits. Some people seem to love starting drama with their neighbors . There are a lot of folks who…

We don't take kindly to silly HOA rules ‘round these parts. You might say that this town ain’t big enough for the two of us! Seriously though, HOAs are a giant pain in the rear for just about everyone who's moved into their territory. A lot of first-time home buyers will find their dream home, fall in love with the property, and move in ASAP. But then when they arrive, they're told they'll need to pay hundreds of dollars per month to the local Homeowner's Association (HOA). Hundreds! Every mont…

These people are not thrilled with their neighbors' behavior . They decided to blast their next-door nemesis online, and people are quick to commiserate! Some folks are annoying neighbors without trying to be. They have the best intentions, but they don't think about the ways that their actions might impact the person living just a few feet away. For example, u/Medic979's neighbor has taken to leaving out tasty treats for the squirrels. Why's that an issue? Well, he's left out delicacies like l…

Next up, these people quit their jobs on the spot , like one person who told a coworker, “I refuse to be talked to like that.”

When you want to be charged several hundred dollars for decorating your home as you wish, the HOA is your organization. These notorious corrupt groups seem to love handing out massive fines for tiny little violations. Home Owner's Associations , or HOAs, are groups of people who are supposed to look out for the well-being of their community. But instead, they seem to spend an awful lot of time messing around. For example, one person's HOA horror story involved them painting their house a new co…
