It has gotten to a point where it is extremely common to hear about neighborhood drama, and about entitled neighbors who think they own everything around them. Some stories are more dramatic than others, but everyone has probably dealt with a demanding neighbor at some point in their lives. That being said, there is one line that a neighbor should never ever cross, and that is taking advantage of elderly people. Like the person in this Reddit post. This man asked his elderly neighbor if he coul…

Your neighbors are your closest allies. They can assist with receiving packages, impart insightful information about the surrounding area, keep a watchful eye on your home, and much more. However, should misfortune find you and you are forced to live next door to a horrible person who has been a headache since the minute she arrived, do you participate in her little game of torment or do you cave into all of her absurd requests in an attempt to keep things at bay? The Original Poster (OP) recen…

What does one should do when a strange car all of a sudden gets parked in one's private parking? Should they look for the car's owner and get them to move it? Should they hold tight and see if the owner will simply move their car on their own? Or should they get the car towed right then and there and let the owner deal with the rest? The Redditor who wrote this petty revenge story tried a few of the ways listed above when their neighbor decided to park their car in the Redditor's driveway. OP (…

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…

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...

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.

Sure, passive-aggressive behavior is not the ideal way to handle an awkward roommate situation, but sometimes, it's the most effective way to make your point heard. If the person with whom you share space has unrealistic expectations of you, you are bound to upset them. Now, if they themselves cannot meet their own expectations if the roles were reversed, then it's about time to give that person a taste of their own medicine. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/Oomp…

Having a difficult neighbor in a claustrophobic apartment building can make your living situation nearly impossible. As soon as someone is accused of making too much noise, people can get petty and defensive really quickly. For instance, a friend of mine had an upstairs neighbor who stomped around constantly at 3 am every morning. As soon as he was kindly asked to be quiet moving forward, the neighbor argued he was stomping because he was trying to tell her to quiet down. This, of course, was h…

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…

Neighbors can be a real headache, even (or especially) when you are living in the suburbs. How dare you back into their driveway for 3 seconds? Why aren't your Christmas lights up yet? What have you done to those flowerbeds? So many questions, or rather, demands. Why can't they just focus on their own lives? Maybe they're bored, or they just like making other people miserable. This Karen was quite the challenge, and she approached her neighbors angrily a few times over the fact that people kept…

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…
