When young couples move into a neighborhood, it's no surprise that some of the lifers in the neighborhood will roll their eyes at the “new blood.” That being said, this entitled neighbor, whom the Redditor refers to as Tim, really thought he could get away with ongoing manipulation, endless plotting and scheming, and frequent trespassing of property without any repercussions. Young folks may be new to the neighborhood, but that in no way means that they are willing to be used and played around…

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…

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.

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.

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.

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…
