“Love your neighbor as yourself” is easy to say and hard to do. Some of us are fortunate enough to have lovely neighbors who bake us homemade pies and invite us over for a barbeque (don’t worry, they have plenty of veggies to grill if you’re vegan). The rest of us are… well, far less lucky in whom we live next to.

There are neighbors from heaven and then there are neighbors from hell. They play loud music at night. They take your parking spot. They make your life miserable. And sometimes they end up on the Neighbors From Hell Instagram page, dedicated to collecting the best of the worst neighbor experiences. Scroll down and check some of these stories out and don’t forget to upvote your fave ones. Let us know in the comments what the worst neighbors you’ve ever had were like and read on for some tips on how to deal with jerk neighbors.

If you want some more content about bad neighbors, we’ve got you covered. Check out Bored Panda’s post about the funniest passive-aggressive messages that neighbors have left each other.

Wish my neighbours kids only left things over the line by 3 inches. The cycle all the way around my family's cars on my drive and keep falling off.

Well both neighbours seem rude here. If you have to laugh, don't admit it!

The Neighbors From Hell IG community is 269k people strong and anyone can send them a submission. Send them a quick message if you’re enduring neighborly hell at the moment.

Dealing with bad neighbors is a delicate situation. You have to be diplomatic yet firm, tough but fair if you want to live peacefully. There are several different types of jerk neighbors. From racket makers and slobs to careless pet owners and worse.

Real estate expert Barbara Corcoran told Today that the best way to avoid bad neighbors is to spot them early. So if you’re planning on buying or renting a new property, have a drive around the neighborhood at night to see how people in the area behave like when the sun goes down. Also, have a chat with the local store owners about what the locals are like.

However, what are you supposed to do if you’re already living next to someone who’s making your daily life hard to bear?

Well, the first step would be to set up a time to talk to your neighbor in person about what’s bothering you. The important thing is not to accuse them (people always get defensive when someone does that) but to let them know what’s bothering you and to suggest ways to solve the issue. Together.

Chances are a friendly chat or two might work. But if they don’t, talk to your local neighborhood or building association and ask them to step in. And if that doesn’t work and your neighbors continue to be aggressively disruptive, call your local precinct.

I wonder if someone actually had the guts to claim it back. I would just leave it if it was me.

My boyfriend sexted me that he wanted me to "stick it someplace hot and wet." So I did.

Someone forgot to shake the sheets out before doing laundry. #O_O# This is why you always visually check the drum when switching to dryer. (Well no, stray underwear and socks are why you check, but this is another good reason!)

HA! This happened to me. A transgender neighbor, female to male, left his rubber parts in the wash.... obviously pre-Op transgender. I just gave them back, he was a nice kid.

Ok, please don't use it before I come to pick it up. It's pretty complicated, I think you need to be showed how to.

I can't imagine what was left in the washer. Why would you put one in the washer?

Dishwasher?! No way why would anyone throw a dildo in a dishwasher. I hate to be your guest coming over for dinner.

Did you find a dildo in the wash room? It has lots of wear and tear on it and a head like a real one. It use to vibrate but like I said I worn it out. I could just hear her say that lol

To this day, I wonder how lucky I am not to find sex toys or condom in washer/dryer at college laundromat. I (and my flat mate) now have our own washer and dryer

Drink it black next time you k**b. Though people should realise that the most experienced burglars know the places where you're likely to hide a key and those hide a key things really aren't that hidden.

I can sympathize with this one. Small talk can sometimes feel like torture, so I have resorted to hiding on the upper floor when someone was waiting by the elevator on the ground floor. No damage done to anyone, so why not?

Simple solution, remove their rear license plate and replace it with a sign "I need to learn to park.". The police will surely be interested and draw his attention to this message.

Problem of this approach is that THEY know where you live, and you don't know where they'll be living.

Wait, the blue balloons show that "Chelsea" is the person who sent this in & "The monster" is the supposed Neighbour-from-Hell?! I'm confused.

In my country it's actually illegal to make noise loud enough to bother your neighbours before 8am on weekdays and 10am on weekends.

Seems like Chloe from 1A finally had enough. It's quite amazing how some people think that rules never apply to them, even when they are warned.

Feel for both. Children want to learn to play and that's perfectly reasonable. Torture to listen to though. Had a singing coach living nearby and OML it was hell for a while. Now I have a neighbour with a son who isn't very committed to learning to play the drums - so at least it isn't very often or for very long!

Breaking in if you are not on the lease or mortgage is illegal. Don't know if s******g in someones bed is legal or not but it is absolutely disgusting.
