Maybe have some responsibility for your own children?

HOAs waste a lot of energy on ensuring all residents have permits for their plants, rose shrubs are trimmed correctly, and trampolines in backyards are painted in the right color. Some HOAs even enforce an overnight guest fee (put your welcome mats away). They love to interfere when interference is not needed but keep their nosy face knobs away when a resident actually has an issue that is worth looking into. In this case, a Texas resident who we'll call OP was enjoying suburban life until one…

There's no manual on how to deal with inconsiderate neighbors — especially when it's their kids who are causing the problem! “Kids will be kids,” as the saying goes. But where are the parents responsible for said children?

Do you wanna build a snowman?

Idiots have the uncanny ability to work themselves into petty positions of power, which they then rule over with an iron fist, completely ignorant of the fact that absolutely no one takes them seriously or even wanted that position in the first place. One could attribute this undeniably overly prevalent idiot phenomenon to possibly be due to the individual's complete and utter lack of self-awareness. For, one needs to be aware of one’s own actions and place in the world before one can begin to…

Come again?

Snow shoveling is a grueling task, and one that basically no one wants to do. On r/pettyrevenge , this OP shared their own tale of revenge, served cold, to an annoying neighbor . However, the commenters are completely split on who is wrong in this situation. Disputes with neighbors can be messy, especially when it comes to shared spaces like a parking lot or street parking. Plus, as some commenters pointed out, there are different sorts of rules depending on where you're from, and the severity…

Living next to a bad neighbor will surely cause you a terrible existence. And when you're living in densely inhabited accommodation like an apartment building, you're rolling the dice many more times, resulting in a far greater chance of ending up near a complete psycho or entitled individual. Redditor u/SilentJoe1986 shared this story to Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit, telling of how their neighbor had insisted that they turn up their own thermostat so that the rising heat would heat the…

Dealing with noisy neighbors is the worst. There's always a risk of starting a superiority contest on who is more passive aggressive, who's louder, and who's more willing to lose sleep over a petty neighborhood battle. One man learned his lesson the hard way– After years of harassing his neighbor next door with booming music and surround sound movies at all hours of the night, she got payback.

I can't imagine having to share a thermostat with crazy neighbors.

Rule number one of living in any neighborhood: don't become the enemy of all the town children!

These neighbors aren't going to be on friendly terms after this guy's ice cold revenge! “It was a cold winter day,” writes u/topathemornin. They told this excellent tale of very petty revenge, and as they claim, there was about 8 inches of snow outside, with temperatures dipping into the negatives. The OP began shoveling out their two cars. They dug out their own SUV, and then also shoveled a second place for their wife's Prius. The trouble started after the OP and their wife made a trip in the…

Teens don't always think about the consequences of their actions… That's a skill you gain as you get older and wiser! Some people don't necessarily become more mature as they age, however. This guy, for one, still thinks he's so cool for getting really petty levels of revenge against his neighbor, even decades later. As people in the comments pointed out, keeping your neighbors happy is pretty important — otherwise you might find they're retaliating against you ! One commenter warned the OP to…

Lawns are often a great attraction and target for entitled neighbors. It's almost like they have a magnetic pull, resulting in an obsessive fixation—one single blade of grass overgrown or out of place sending the neighbor over the edge. But let's be real, living close to people can be maddening—being that they're a constant presence in your everyday life that you had no choice or control over. We can choose our partner, our friends—even whether or not we want to see certain family members—but n…

If you grew up in a certain time period, you know exactly how valuable Cabbage Patch Dolls were to children! This person had an amazing revenge story to share revolving around a few DIY Cabbage Patch Dolls . It all took place when the OP was a kid, at just seven years old . After moving to a new place, the OP and their siblings befriended the neighbors across the street. They loved the boy who lived there, but his sister was a major bully in the OP's eyes. One day, the OP and their siblings not…

A landlord took to Reddit, asking their opinion on the fact he evicted new parents, giving them only 30 days to skedaddle. His reasoning was that their new baby made a lot of noise, and the neighbors had begun to complain. Is it insensitive? Yes. Is it illegal? We would think so, but apparently, he doesn't live in the US, and stated that it was actually completely legal for him to do so, as it landed under some sort of ‘noise pollution’ category. Babies are noisy creatures, duh. They cry, babbl…
