This snow shoveler knows they were being petty towards their neighbor , and they do not care one bit. In some parts of the world, snow days are still quite common. Some storms can dump buckets of the white stuff, leaving people to dig out their cars while their kids build snow forts. Shoveling a driveway or digging your car out can take ages. You have to scrape the snow from the windshield, dig out the tires, scrape the ice from the door handles, and after all that's done, you still need to dig…

This manager is going to have a hard time the day she comes back from her extended vacation. Well, that's what you get for making enemies out of nearly everyone who is working for you. Not long after joining the restaurant, this new hire implemented unfair scheduling policies that mostly benefitted her above all else. It was only a matter of time before the Redditor and her boyfriend, who also worked at the restaurant, discovered a big mistake that could get this new manager fired. Well, one da…

This person is ready to dance the night away with their rival! Things got a bit petty at this folk festival, as u/TheBestOpossum explained in their story of petty revenge . This person was at a German folk festival with their BF when the incident occurred. Although the couple was at a festival, not a dance competition, there was another dude who kept trying to make their dancing into a big deal. He seems to have a loud mouth that he wouldn't stop running. He just kept insulting this person's bo…

For those of you who know, rushing sororities and fraternities is a pressure cooker of an experience. It's also not one of those challenging processes in life that brings out the best in people. As someone who never acquiesced and succumbed to the Greek Life experience but observed many peers go through it, I can say with confidence that rushing can feel as high stakes as applying to college. So why would someone willingly put themselves in that situation? Well, socialization and social hierarc…

Unless it's the John Waters movie starring the incomparable Divine, no one should come home to 50 pink flamingos in their parking space. That is, unless you're this dude's neighbor, who clearly got what he deserved. The two residents live in an apartment complex with a garage underneath that has designated parking spaces for those living in the building. Yet for whatever reason, this neighbor did not care about the clearly demarcated spaces and decided that he was going to use the Redditor's pa…

These teenage girls are taking a stand against the school football coach. Up next, these neighbors are squabbling over 4cm of fence, with one neighbor insisting that he's “going to make him replace his whole fence.”

This older cousin knew exactly what she was doing when she invited her younger relative over to clean each weekend. She was taking advantage of someone younger than her, with less life experience, in order to get a clean house! Having a kid is a messy endeavor---how do they go through so much clothing, leave messes everywhere, and leave toys on every possible surface? It's nearly impossible to have a perfectly clean home when there are toddlers running around messing things up at every opportun…

No one enjoys being cut off, whether that’s being cut off in the middle of a phone conversation or having your electricity cut off. Obviously, one of these scenarios is worse than the other, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do to make a point. Here, we have a 28-year-old daughter who helped support her father financially and recently had to call him about an upcoming electricity payment. However, her attempts to discuss this with her father were thwarted six times because he had th…

Dealing with bad customers is one thing, but trying to work with a coworker who can't stand you can make your workday hard to bear. Just ask this person, who realized at age 16 that some people are impossible to please, no matter what you do. Up next, read about what happened when a bowling group scolded a group of youngsters who wouldn't stay in their lane: “ My friends called me a Karen and said kids will be kids ."

“The law is the law,” this person bragged as they made their neighbor replace his whole entire fence . Sometimes the impulse toward pettiness can pay off! U/Sospuff has an awful neighbor who is making a big fuss over the fence the two of them share. It's not an ideal situation: this person has three kids, and the neighbor has a dog that the original poster believes poses a danger. It's understandable that this person would want to protect their kids. However, as they shared in a post to r/petty…

Haters are your motivators, as they say. But is that always true? It can, at times, be highly motivating to want to get back at those who doubted you . Maybe you had a teacher who told you you wouldn't succeed, and those words have stuck in your mind for decades since then. On the other hand, words of encouragement from teachers or other students can be just as motivating, and they make you feel good about your abilities from the start. U/Pineapple8900 shared a story of the way their guidance c…

If there is one cardinal rule in life, it should be to never mess with a mom. If this story serves as proof of anything, it's this principle. At the very least, one should not try to mess with this particular mother. Her 7-year-old kid was unfairly deemed a bad apple by his first-grade teacher despite the fact that he had done absolutely nothing. It was one of those power-tripping cases where a teacher just wanted to flex her muscles and assert her authority… even if it was over a 7-year-old. O…

Talking about money can be so gauche. It depends on the circumstances. Should you talk to your coworkers about how much they're making? Yes, you absolutely should. But is it the best thing to talk about at a dinner party? Not so much. They say that money talks and wealth whispers, and this is a great example of it. Some people get their paychecks and just have to buy designer clothes, expensive cars, or the best new tech just so they can show it off to everyone around them. It's the kind of per…

What could be better for workplace morale than dumping your least favorite customer? It really brings people together to bond over a customer who just cannot be satisfied, as this car dealership worker could tell you all about. After that, read the eye-opening tale of a newlywed couple who were “devastated” to learn that they were only going to make $3,000 off of their $60,000 wedding, leading commenters to wonder, “ Did they think they were gonna make money from their wedding ?”

Engaging in a petty back-and-forth with your coworker is, more often than not, a recipe for disaster. However, sometimes you have no choice but to defend yourself. Here, we have a 29-year-old bartender who often was put on the closing shifts at the small but popular bar where she worked. One morning, her coworker who was on the subsequent opening shift tried to get her in trouble with their manager for a mistake she had not made the night before. So, the Redditor decided that the best way to ge…

Most people have had fantasies of enacting some sweet vengeance on their landlords. Let's be honest: most of the time, that revenge would be earned. Whether it's raising your rent to an unnecessary amount or ignoring your incessant requests to repair that leak in your ceiling, you could probably spend hours talking about all the reasons why your landlord deserves some sort of comeuppance. Here, we have the resident of a duplex who had recently gotten into gardening. Unfortunately for the Reddit…
