Neighbor keeps taking woman's assigned spot, she plays and beats her at her own game: 'It took two days before she started leaving notes on my car asking me to stop'

It's often said that you should never stoop to someone else's level and, instead, take the high road and go on to live a better life, beating them through their inability to affect you. Well, truth be told, that's not really all that much fun, and it's not very practical at times since it doesn't really solve the immediate problem at hand. And when that immediate problem at hand is your daily at-home parking situation—well, it's kind of hard to just walk away and ignore it since, you know, you…

'Can you make her stop honking at me?': Entitled Karen refuses to wait for a green light, driver in front of her enlists help from neighbors to stop her

'Can you make her stop honking at me?': Entitled Karen refuses to wait for a green light, driver in front of her enlists help from neighbors to stop her

Incessant honking never helps. That's one rule everyone should learn when they start driving. Traffic is infuriating, but unless someone else is actively endangering other drivers or being reckless, there is no need to add fuel to the frustration. Your busy schedule is no more important than those of the other drivers on the road. In this scenario, however, we weren't even dealing with an insane traffic jam. It was a quiet evening in a suburban neighborhood, and because it was dark and there ha…

'It’s not his fault if I can’t sleep': Tenant gives neighbor who always plays loud music a taste of his own medicine, sabotaging his party

It sounds like Dave had it coming! After shrugging off a series of complaints from his neighbor about playing loud music well into the middle of the night, it was time for Dave's comeuppance. The Redditor who shared this story first made it known that he tried his best to be polite and understanding when he voiced his concerns to Dave, to no avail. Dave laughed it off and made it seem like it wasn't his problem. It's the laugh that definitely triggered something in the Redditor. When he learned…

Family is difficult, perhaps even one of the most difficult things—even when the relationships are fairly “traditional” and straightforward. Let's be honest, though: what is straightforward? Is there even really a straightforward when it comes to family? The reality is that there hardly ever is, and the ones that pretend

Entitled resident's dog goes to the bathroom on neighbor's lawn every day, neighbor finally gets payback: 'I emptied that box into their garbage can and waited'

This wasn't exactly neighborly behavior on both sides of the situation. However, the Redditor ended up doing what he had to in order to make the message to his entitled next-door neighbor clear. That resident allowed their dog to go to the bathroom on the Redditor's lawn every day. The first time, of course, the Redditor excused it. The second time, he thought about bringing it up. By the fifth time, he needed to communicate to the dude next door that this was beyond forgiveness. The best way t…

Entitled Karen orders neighbor to bake healthy snacks for Trick or Treating, neighbor maliciously complies: ‘[She] handed the kids a little bag of… chopped carrots’

Dealing with kids is one obstacle, but dealing with their parents is almost always more challenging. Teachers can attest to this, and parents themselves are likely to agree. This dynamic becomes particularly transparent during gatherings and events, and Halloween is no exception. Here, we have a neighbor who was, for better or for worse, known by everyone to be a good baker. News travels fast in the suburbs, so it did not take long for the entitled Karen Mom who just moved to the neighborhood t…

Homeowner finds a "well loophole" allowing them to leave their HOA by connection to municipal water: 'We rallied 44 people on our street'

We all answer to a higher power, but the more that we can pretend we don't and have some control and agency over our own lives, the happier we tend to be. Whether it's the plain old government authority boss, coach, parents, or that pesky HOA having or at least feeling like you have some control over your own life, the better you're going to feel about it.

What was in it for them? Nothing! Of course, we have plenty of sympathy for folks who are trying to make ends meet and to realize their dreams of owning property. It’s hard out there! However, this Redditor was not even remotely wealthy enough to own a second home and give away one of those homes to a total stranger at…
