With progress comes expansion, and with expansion comes development… the bounds of society creeping beyond where they once were, bringing with them change. We'd like to think that this change is always good, but the reality is that it's not always for the better. Opportunists will be right there waiting to strike when the shifting sands of time and change bring them the chance to take advantage. When this couple bought their dream piece of land out in the middle of nowhere, they completed the p…

"Our across-the-street neighbors also have approximately 6 cars: 3 in their driveway, 2 inside the garage, 1 they park in front of the curb by my house."

"It took him a solid week to figure out why his car wasn’t moving."

Sometimes, the sweetest revenge is accidental. Sure, perhaps you've been fantasizing about the different ways in which you can get even with your unapologetically noisy next-door neighbor, but the conflict-avoidant part of you has kept you from acting upon those fantasies. All you can do in these situations is to hope for karma to rear its ugly head, and in this case, it didn't even have to. This tenant tried numerous times to keep both his adjacent and upstairs neighbors quiet. These were a gr…

Someone call the EPA!

"They didn't even offer to give it back after not letting us get it, they just took it and used it."

"They've clearly brought this on themselves with heavy irresponsible water use."

"I seriously can't, I've had nightmares about this guy trying to open the **** front door."

For some reason, it almost always seems like your Wi-Fi signal at home is the strongest in the least convenient places, and it leaves you wondering if wireless technology is really so great anyway. Like why does the corner of my kitchen, which should be one of the furthest points from my router, have some of the strongest connections? It might also occur that you happen to visit your neighbor's house next door only to notice that your phone is still connected to your wifi and receiving a better…

Neighbors are usually there to help each other out in times of need… well, to a certain extent. Sure, if you need to borrow a broom or some sugar temporarily, that's usually acceptable. However, just dropping by unannounced and without warning on a consistent basis in order to make intrusive demands is not something most folks are going to welcome. Here , we have new residents who saw that their adjacent neighbors were going through renovations. Well, apparently that meant that the Redditor and…

"When I pull into my driveway, I see a big red sign that says ‘(my address) MAINTAIN YOUR PROPERTY, LOOK AROUND, EVERYONE ELSE DOES. TOWN TAKE NOTICE.’"

"Children and toddlers run the roads here, and the parents encourage it."

"What happens now is that for the last 3 months I’ve been doing her dirty laundry, and she had the audacity to ask me to wash her clothes in the sink with a natural soap because my machine is giving her allergies according to her."

"We live on a street with no sidewalks, so everyone has ditches for drainage. She never cleans her despite having huge trees dropping sticks and leaves into it, so her yard floods when it rains. She's blaming us for that."

What do you do when your neighbor expects to use your Wi-fi for free?

Sometimes, it's better to just leave well enough alone. By making an issue about what you “do or don't” have when you're, well… wrong—you're more than likely to end up with less than you started with in the first place. Especially, as it turns out when you're disputing what you think is the boundary of your new property… Because, as in this story, the neighbor who has been there for longer probably knows a thing or two about why that “boundary” was established in the first place As at any point…
