This entitled neighbor had some extreme plans for his landscaping, which included removing massive trees, constructing a 10-foot fence, and leveling the ground extensively. However, his actions did not sit well with his neighbors, the HOA, or even city officials. Despite receiving multiple warnings from his well-meaning next-door neighbors, he refused to consider their advice, believing that his entitlement gave him the right to do as he pleased. Little did he know that his next-door neighbor...

One would think that living in an HOA neighborhood would mean safety and protection, but in reality, it means pettiness and fines. Of course, it’s not easy to get on the good side of HOA board members because these are the folks with Tracy Flick sensibilities, years of under-explored resentment, and backward authority complexes. In short, you can’t make friends with the people who will go out of their way to put you in your place for silly reasons. It’s a waste of one’s time and energy. It’s be…

Living in an area with little to no parking spaces can get extremely frustrating very fast. Having to wander around the street for 15 minutes after work just to find a parking space, which is usually at least another five-minute walk back to your home, is a routine none of us want to go through. That obviously leads to people sometimes parking in front of other people's houses, simply because that is the only free space they managed to find. Now, I get that this could be annoying for the people…

Constant proximity to other people—without any recourse or avenues for escape—is maddening. I guarantee, if you were locked in a room, even with your favorite person in the world, it wouldn't take long (and even less time than you'd think) before you'd grow sick of the sight of them and tired of the sound of their voice, wishing their mouth would stay shut every time they breathed. Say now, that you don't even like this person. Worse yet, you have your entire life savings and livelihood investe…

While you're choosing your home , maybe you should consider the nature around you. That seems like pretty obvious advice, no? Well, if you're wealthy, anything is possible. For the right price, you can have your dream house with everything you desire, even if it's ridiculously inconvenient to make that happen. This person had a wealthy neighbor who felt that way. This guy had a humongous budget of $12 million to spend on his property renovation. That's a staggering amount of money for most peop…

In rural areas, it's not uncommon to have long individual or shared driveways that aren't serviced by public services, instead being completely up to the owner/s to maintain. This can present some tricky situations for the unprepared in areas that regularly or irregularly receive heavy snowfall, where they might wake up one morning and find themselves unable to leave their home.

These two neighbors have a feud that is escalating by the day. So it goes with neighborhood drama : little things can quickly escalate into issues that aren't easy to resolve. Just like with any relationship, there has to be some give and take. If you water plants for your neighbor, they might powerwash your sidewalk while they're washing theirs. Or maybe your neighbor bakes you a great casserole, so you return their dish with some fresh brownies for them to snack on. Life can be so sweet, but…

If you've ever lived near a construction site, you know that the noise can be unbearable at times. Unfortunately, there isn't anything you can do about it. The world cannot come to a halt because of your inconvenience . But with that being said, living wall-to-wall with construction noises all day long while pregnant does sound like an absolute train wreck. But life has a funny way of driving us nuts. You have to accommodate. In this story, the OP notified his neighbors about a month before the…

Having noisy neighbors is bad enough, but it is even worse when those noisy neighbors are college students. The noise of college parties only, especially when you are trying to sleep, could probably get you to move out in a matter of days. Plus, trying to get those kids to stop is even harder to deal with, so you would have to suffer in silence until it is late enough to call the police. It doesn't just end in loud parties. In this Reddit story, a man who lives in a mostly student area shared a…

We look forward to the time when we can afford to live alone. At last, we have space, privacy, and a plethora of other wonderful amenities that we wouldn't have believed possible in our twenties. But as we usually emphasize here, maintaining a cordial relationship with your neighbors is crucial. Lousy neighbors have the power to either make or break an apartment complex experience. However, what would happen if your neighbor considered your garden to be their own private dump? Is it possible to…

Who doesn’t love to sit back and watch drama unfold when you personally are unaffected by all of it? Well, at least for now. Who knows how these two neighbors plan to escalate their feud after all these shenanigans? Maybe the Redditor will have to get out of their front-row seat and actually pick a side? This thread was posted to Reddit’s r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/coralcoast21 , who watched their neighbors start from a petty place of putting up passive-aggressive signs on their lawns to lea…

Snow shoveling is hard work, but these neighbors don't care. If they can be cozy in their home while this OP does all the heavy lifting, that's perfectly fine with them. Out of all the outdoor chores, shoveling snow is a lot of people's least favorite task. At least when you rake leaves, they're pretty light! Snow is heavy and bulky, so you get sweaty and tired out instantly. The dude in this petty revenge tale didn't shovel for just an hour or two. No, instead, they had to clear out their driv…

These people have a great plan to deal with a not-so-nice neighbor . No matter where you grew up, chances are you've encountered a neighbor like the guy in this story. He seems a bit cranky, overreactive, and anti-social. You can try as hard as you want to be nice to this neighbor, but it won't matter much. Some people just want to be left alone all the time. This is the kind of neighbor who yells at kids who are playing in their own backyards, or calls their parents to complain that they're sk…

Anyone with neighbors knows how delicate the relationship between the people in the neighborhood is. Not only between those who live next to each other but also between all the different service providers that come to the neighborhood once in a while, like mailmen and delivery workers, street cleaners, etc. To maintain that relationship, you don't have to Love Thy Neighbor, but you do have to have respect for one another, and don't get into each other's business. This Reddit story, was shared b…

When living in one flat with several roommates its is so important to keep a somewhat pleasant environment in the household. To keep the peace, there are a few thumb rules that everyone should know before moving in with someone else. The first rule of thumb would be never to take your roommate's belonging with out their permission (even if you are just ‘borrowing’ it). The second rule would be to always clean up after yourself. And lastly, well, when ‘entertaining’, always let the others know t…

Thinking outside the box is this neighbor's specialty. What's the worst thing your neighbor's ever done ? Mine have stolen package after package, knowing they wouldn't get caught in a building with dozens of apartments. Even installing cameras hasn't helped much. Other people have issues with their neighbors parking in front of their houses. Some drivers simply do not care if their massive trucks are blocking the sidewalk. Then there are neighbors who seem to have the cops on speed dial, ready…
