“This Is Next Level Crazy”: 50 Neighbors So Petty They Had To Let It Be Known In Writing
"Love thy neighbor," the famous proverb says. Yet, according to a 2023 LendingTree survey, 24% of Americans say they dislike at least one of their neighbors. It turns out that sometimes, loving them can be really difficult. Especially if they're a thundering pain in the rear who leaves you passive-aggressive notes.
This list by Bored Panda is dedicated to exactly that. Who hasn't dealt with a petty neighbor at least once in their lives? Please share your luck with us if you're one of those people! But, for the rest of us, here are some relatable pics of neighbors making ridiculous demands and leaving notes so petty they get inducted into the passive-aggressive hall of fame.

You're Welcome
I love the happy-go-lucky cadence that this reads like. Being overly friendly to the enemy is one of my favourite techniques
I really don't find this petty. People should pick up their dog poop. I have a dog, and we pick up her poop. It's the responsible thing to do.
Probably because they knew the person was inside and the poop was left right outside the front door making it a better chance the owner will step on it.
Load More Replies...They actually got "you're" right. I was a bit surprised when I read it.
Load More Replies...I feel this one. Used to “share” a backyard with a downstairs neighbor who let her dog poop all over the yard. She never picked it up. So no grassy backyard for me!
Unfortunately For You, So Am I
There is ONE situation in which I understand taking someone's washing out of the machine mid-cycle. I had a neighbour who would ignore the list in which everyone else put their name and date for needing the washing machine. I would arrive there in my four hours off on a given day, four hours in which I had put my name into the list, and the washing machine would be full of THEIR laundry. They did not do it once, they did it several times. So yes, eventually I ended up taking the laundry out of the machine to put my own in. They came and complained, I showed them the list; they frowned. But never did it again.
аsshole it says. Just helping out once again. The rightmost censored part was already so when BP sourced this picture, so it's not for me to uncensor it ;)
This Neighbor Note
Did this once. Recommend it. Absolutely freeing, mind calming experience. As I was sunbathing in my own backyard (of a house with a 1m (3yard) fence on each of its 3 open sides, or so I thought) there was suddenly a big dog showing up, starting to poop and left on the very overgrown with ivy and bushes side of my yard. I was so surprised and shocked, I was prepared for the next day:... Shoes on, random plastic bag in hand... Bingo! Dog shows up, poops, leaves. I grab the poop and follow the dog, over the fence, (derelict yard without owner, into the next opposite yard of a appartmentment building, through the open back door, up the stairs... and see a door shut. I ring, door opens, ask, Hello, did you just let your dog out?// Yeah.// Unsupervised?// Yeah, he pops into the overgrown yard next to ours. //No he poops into MY yard. Each time ''ll find his poop at my place I will help you out until you lern top follows him...and volley the poop (without the bag!) into her floor... Dog never showed up again.
And it really really hurts when that dog hits you in the mouth. (And you get dog hair in your teeth too.)
only thing you have gotta do it pick up the dodo 😅
Load More Replies...In the past, relationships with your neighbors were almost as close as family. Sure, some of them were nosy and unpleasant, but there used to be a sense of community among the people in a neighborhood. A 1976 study even showed that friendships with neighbors did widows more good than relationships with their nuclear families and even their own children.
Those with friend neighbors said they were less lonely, felt more useful, and saw themselves as respected in the community.
Today, people wouldn't even call their neighbors "friends." According to a British survey, one in four people believe there's "no sense of community spirit" in their neighborhood. 75% think of their neighbors as acquaintances only. So, how did we go from being friendly with our neighbors to leaving them passive-aggressive notes in the lobby?
Stealing Plants
There are actually people who will steal plants. I found out that they read the obituaries, and will get the plants/bushes/trees while everyone is at the service and burial.
Saw a sign at a local nursery saying that it was illegal to take cuttings. I would never do that - it's stealing! People are terrible.
Load More Replies...Plants? Try a tombstone. Yep, someone stole a tombstone from a cemetary on our road, now no one knows who is buried there. All the people that knew are deceased. It's not like it was a shiny new one and besides, it has some elses info engraved in it and the way this stone was made, there's no way you're going to alter it without destroying it.
My neighbours had a plant thief, so they set up a motion activated camera and flash. Caught the guy who was a work colleague of the wife and was doing it because she snubbed his advances. Mental illness case I'd say.

Load More Replies...Some people believe that today, we think of relationships with our neighbors in terms of etiquette rather than as social relationships. Community development specialist with the University of Missouri Extension David Burton says that we can try to blame outside influences, but the real reason why we're not friendly with our neighbors anymore is our own fault.
"People seem to have their favorite theory about why things have changed. I've heard the blame placed on things like fenced yards, homes without front porches, too much indoor entertainment, electric garage doors, and even air-conditioning. But those are all external sources of blame, while the actual responsibility rests with each of us and our choices."
Kids Are Having Fun With Friends So A Neighbor Reported To HOA That They Must Be Running A Childcare

HOA. Where your house is supposed to look like Barbie's all the time and never, ever, display anything that gives the semblance of actual human beings actually occupying the house and living an ordinary life there.
100% sure was one of those Karen's who is divorced and her life is completely, utter miserable, the type of Karen that when she sees someone enjoying happiness, it causes her the most unbearable pain!
The Neighbors Need To Stop
I see nothing wrong with what they wrote. I once lived across the road from a couple that was scream at each other day in and day out and it was so damṉ annoying! it was made so much worse by the fact that they had two kids that had to stay in the house to listen to them screaming at each other and it got worse when they started trashing their house every day. I stayed out of it because it wasn’t my business but my loser ex used to try and get involved and wanted to go talk to them and I say yeah go ahead go and join them. He was never brave enough of course. He called the cops a few times but of course the cop said do nothing… They ended up breaking up thankfully, after about three years of it, but it’s still that was still three years of screaming and abuse They put the kids through.
Put up a sign in your yard - $5 to watch my neighbors fight. Include popcorn.
Load More Replies...Seems pretty fair. At an old apartment i had neighbours who would have hours long screaming fights. One day I had enough and knocked and asked them to keep it down. So they both started screaming at me to mind my business. I'm trying to mind my business but it's hard when you scream full volume for hours every day.
I agree. We had neighbors like this for awhile in an apartment complex and the others of us would all go out on our balconies to look at each other like "at what point do we call the cops?" In our area of LA - not a rich area - they won't come unless someone is actually hurt. So when one of the couple come within hearing range, I shout "do you need help? Shall I call the cops?" They always stop and shut the windows for a few days.
A long time ago the couple who lived above me would fight non-stop. And then "make up". Loudly. Their bed was right above mine. Gross.
I’ve had neighbours like this. I had to call the police multiple times because they would beat the tar out of each other. It’s a normally quiet lovely neighbourhood so it was really jarring. I was glad when they moved out but sad that they were still together with the same old issues.
Joy-Hating Neighbor Writes Psychotic Threatening Note
I would just love to see what the police would say once they come round and realise that someone has called them out because a small child is running around, playing in their parents' back garden.
And they fact that the neighbor is looking into her yard
Load More Replies...The fact that the kid is out playing in the yard and not sitting with some electronic device is a win
I can promise you that calls like this come in ALL the time to non emergency. Had a lady last week flipping out because people were jogging at 5:30 am on the public sidewalk. Wanted them all arrested.
Load More Replies...Across the street, there's a kindergarten. I don't like kids in general, and I absolutely despise the frequencies of their crying and their need to clang some metal thing (dunno what) against the metal frame of their swingset. I don't understand how anyone can work there for more than five minutes without going insane. But do I complain or threaten to call the cops? No, because kids are kids, and if I don't like it, I can move my sorry аss somewhere else. This concludes my TED talk, thanks for your attention.
This seems fake. I mean, I just cannot imagine this as a complaint. If it's real, maybe the police need to have a conversation with the complainer.
I hope it’s not, but as a waitress back in the day I’ve had a customer (older bald man in suit) loose his shìt like a toddler over a child laughing. Not a kid or dog person, but what kind of life a person has to get angry over children laughing is very concerning.
Load More Replies...Probably because the dogs are stuck with this grumpy twаt who will certainly not let them run and have fun with the kids.
Load More Replies...Our neighbor to our backyard has 3 little girls. They play outside all day and scream and squeal like they are being m******d. It bugs the h*ll out of me, but you know what? those kids are outside playing and having a good time. I can deal with it for a few summers till they grow older. It is a love/hate relationship
Clearly not a popular opinion, but I share it. I spent 18 months shipping for a house in a quiet neighborhood, and failed. It's easier to learn to tolerate the noise than it is to move.
Load More Replies...According to Burton, there are four main reasons why today we are less likely to engage in conversation with our neighbors than before:
- We're lonely,
- We're busy,
- We have 'retreat mentality,'
- And we get all the entertainment we need inside our homes.
Whether to maintain a relationship with a neighbor is a personal decision. But by refusing to form a bond with them, we might be risking giving up our social capital and even our physical and mental well-being.
"Be intentional about being outside," Burton offers some advice on how to chat up your neighbors more often. "Watch and speak to neighbors that you see. And take steps to learn and use the names of your neighbors. That is the starting line so get on your mark."
Here’s A Good One… Last Month My Lovely Downstairs Neighbor Taped This To My Door
My son was apparently laughing too loud playing at the park outside with his friends… Let’s hope her lease ends soon because this is the third letter she’s put on my door about his “laughing” I’ll see if I can find them. She’s 65 with 15 cats and we can smell her cigarette smoke through our vents nightly and have never said a mean word to her. Might just post my own letter about her cigarette smoke .. and I'm not even that type of person … but COME ON. This is ridiculous.
It's even more bogus that she thinks the child will monitor.. their laughing. You expect the child to be constantly aware of laughing. In this situation I would immediately bite back twice as hard about the cigarette smoke
I have neighbors with little kids. They sometimes disturb my peace and quiet. They are on their property, behind a fence. There is nothing I could or would ever do about it. Kids will be kids.

Point out to the neighbor that - unlike second-hand smoke - second-hand laughter doesn't cause cancer.
I hate children, and I live in front of a daycare / kindergarten. You know what? I hear the laughs and the playfulness and the joy and FKN get over it, because I am not an ignorant selfish petulant arsehole.
My Neighbor Is Mad That We Have Security Cameras Facing Her Property
We both have 10 acres. Her house is a quite a ways away from ours. She is pissed that we got new cameras because now she will get caught harassing us. She put this up last night right by the fence by my kids trampoline. Traumatized my 4 year old.
The kind of person far more childish than the actual children.

I don't see a problem with this Camara placement. It's not pointing at her house or anything. Neighbor may need to invest in a lot of privacy fencing.
Sorry, but why would anybody point cameras at someone else’s property? The OP needs to stop surveilling other people.
Because the neighbor has been harassing them. Didn't you read the caption? They probably felt they had to do it, for protection/proof.

Tight-knit neighborhood communities contribute to safer environments as well. Research shows that neighbor behavior and engaged communities result in collective efficacy: it reduces vandalism and crime. Simply put, if neighbors trust each other and have better relationships, they're more likely to act when crime is happening, resulting in fewer violent incidents.
Passive Aggressive Neighbors At Their Finest
"I just put a skylight in my apartment. The people upstairs are furious." - Steven Wright
When I first moved here to west Michigan I rented a basement apartment. It was awesome until the daughter moved back home. She hung out all day and came home after the parents went to bed. Their living room was directly over my bed and she would stomp back and forth from the living room to the kitchen all night long. They couldn't get wifi because the daughter racked up hundreds of dollars in PPV so I got it, but had the router in my bedroom. If she didn't wake me, all was good, if she did, I pulled the plug on the router.
I had upstairs neighbors that liked to stomp around at 3 a.m. Who wears shoes in the house? I could hear their dishes rattle. Luckily they moved out.
Load More Replies...If you're the type of wee c**t who doesn't like to hear people walking, it's on you to specify you need a top floor apartment. If you don't, ask to move to one when you realize you're like this. And then please kindly f**k right off.
I used to have a neighbor upstairs who would take off and drop their shoes at 1am. I would wake up when the first thud hit then wait for the second before trying to get back to sleep. I was literally waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Load More Replies...It is legal to park infront of some ones house especially if its on a public street .
Trust me, the kids couldn't care less. It's this self entitled jerk that thinks the road in front of their house also belongs to them. Unless prohibited, neighbor should have a trucker friend park their rig there. Ask any fisherman, this kind of thing happens all the time on lakes becasue people don't understand their property stops at the shoreline. They might own the dock but not the water it's floating on.
Load More Replies...What kind of frame of mind do those kids have when their first thought after seeing a car park on the same spot twice is - obviously a prostitute?
Yeah, a public street is a public street and there ain't sh*t you can do about cars parked there.
My Family Is Displaced From A Hurricane And A Neighbor Left A Letter
as soon as i read "in our little northeast corner" I knew the person was a t**t
How about offering to help? You never know someone's situation. There is also another way to go about this. Here in the US, you can report someone to the county, in this case it'd be North Port. They will investigate, issue citations, or aid the homeowner. This is just petty.
Dear neighbor: You are absolutely correct in your assessment. However, it seems that you have, in error, addressed this letter to myself and not to Mssr. Ian, of Hurry Cane. As the damage to the property is neither my fault nor yours, but the direct result of Mssr. Ian, I urge you to contact him promptly with regards to repairs and reparations. Sincerely, A North Port neighbor.
That would be a Karen, an HOA would have a letterhead proudly displayed.
Load More Replies...It was only two months before this note was written. So much for human compassion, right?
Interestingly, if there are any dog owners in the neighborhood, you should probably be thankful to them that the community can feel safer. And no, the pooch doesn't have to be an aggressive pit bull who barks at every person they see.
A 2022 study found that neighborhoods that have higher concentrations of households with dogs experience fewer robberies, homicides, and cases of aggravated assault. The next time your neighbor complains about your dog, throw that statistic in their face!
Angry Note After Removing Clothing From Laundry
Person left their clothes in the dryer for at least 1 hour after finishing. As my clothes were ready for the dryer, I gave 10 minutes of courtesy and then removed their clothes and placed them on top of the dryer, then got to my business. I returned to this beautiful note, plus an extra note on top from a neighbor who witnessed the abandoned clothes and defended me. What are your thoughts on community laundry ethics?
These re the same people that never clean the lint trap. Would also surmise thaty are the same people who leave carts to wander in the parking lot rather than putting them in an appropriate place
I always stacked somebody else's dry clothes on the folding table or atop the dryer. And they do it for me too. I never get pissed about it, in fact I'm embarrassed that I didn't get down to the laundry room in time.
Universal laundry rule: When the machine is finished, you need to either remove your stuff or put more money in. Otherwise, people waiting to use the machines are free to remove your things for you so that they can use the machines.
I have been fortunate enough to have laundry inside my units when I rented, but in college we shared washer/dryers. Sometimes you forget that you have something in the machine, or more likely in college, you took a long nap and forgot about them. It was perfectly acceptable to take someone's clothes out if they were done.

Received In The Mail From A Concerned Neighbor
I haven’t been able to care for my yard as much as I would like over the past few months because we had our second child back in February and I’ve been single-handedly caring for the newborn and our 5 year old while my wife has been in the hospital recovering from postpartum complications.
At no point has my yard been out of compliance with city or HOA ordinances, and at no point has anyone bothered to approach me directly about the matter. Instead, we just received this anonymous passive-aggressive letter in the mail. They even postmarked it and sent it through the mail, rather than walking a few doors down and speaking to me like a human being.
I am so grateful that every neighbor in my neighborhood is supported if they ask for it, and sometimes even if they don't. And our HOA is mostly sane and understanding. We are unicorns.
Environmentally, it is better to mow less frequently. In the UK, we have no mow May, meaning wait until June to get the mower out. This is beneficial to insects including vital pollinators. I'm not a lazy gardener, I'm an eco warrior!
I’ll never understand why people in America choose to buy a house in a HOA area. Actually, most Australians will never understand it apparently.
For me, I'd just ignore it. I spent years turning my lawn into a meadow. And where I live it's protected, so as ugly as it is compared to your pretty chemical required lawn, mine has biodiversity. So pllft.
Lawns are ugly and wasteful. I'm lucky enough to own a few acres and I've let most of it go back to wild and the rest I'm seeing with clover to replace the grass. Less maintenance, looks better (imo), and the critters love it. We get so much traffic on the trail cam it's unreal. Foxes, deer, racoons, skunks, turkeys (so many turkeys), and possibly a lynx (it was hard to see tail, but it had the tufted ears).
several years my youngest son was in a horrific accident that they werent sure he'd pull out of ( thang God he did) but as a single mother i lived at that hospital while he was in icu i ate there i showered there i slept in the waiting room at night i wouldnt leave needless to say my yard was the least of my worries i got knee high and a neighbor who knew what was going on left a note saying i needed to mow i left him one saying if he thought it needed mowing to feel free to do so after about 4 weeks someone did i dont know who ( i do know it wasnt him he wouldve sent me a bill )
if I ever received a letter like this I would get my hands on some agricultural Round-Up and hose my entire lawn down, and to make sure I would also salt the earth :)
Man, I would have knocked on your door and asked if you needed help.
There's some truth to the statement that we don't really know how to belong to communities anymore. We joke about it on social media with memes like "People are yearning for the town square," but a sense of community really does help us feel less lonely. According to the American Time Use Survey, only 30% of Americans socialize with a person each day. In 2014, that percentage was 38%.

What Is Wrong With People? Open Your Own Mail
"Opening someone else's mail is a federal crime in the United States, specifically referred to as "Obstruction of Correspondence". This offense can lead to severe penalties, including potential imprisonment and fines. While it is illegal to intentionally open someone else's mail without permission, accidental or ignorant opening of mail not addressed to you is not typically treated as a crime." I don't think "curiosity" is an excuse.
"Jeez, don't make a Federal case of it." "It IS a Federal case, neighbor."

Living in walkable neighborhoods can help us feel more engaged with our communities. A 2023 study shows that it helps us reach our daily recommended amount of physical activity.
What's more, it makes us more likely to engage in social interactions. Living in walkable neighborhoods also makes people more likely to say they're living in tight-knit communities in which they feel like they can rely on their neighbors.

My Neighbor Has Been Giving Me Repeated Note To Cut Down My Trees, These Are My Trees
My neighbor has aspen trees, which seed everywhere and cause little sprouts to pop up in my yard. It happens. I pull out the sprouts because I don't want trees randomly in my yard. It's annoying, sure, but I'd never even imagine asking my neighbor to remove his trees because of this inconvenience to me. It's not like he's insisting I let them grow in my yard.
What’s wrong with them? They’re lovely. We should be adding more nature to neighborhoods.
That's what rakes are for. So sparse of trees in your neighborhood. Don't they know the benefits of trees?
It's called nature a******s. Stick a tree up where the sun doesn't shine then.😈🤬
They want the trees removed but I am guessing they don't want to pay for it
Note From The Downstairs Neighbors
So like appreciate the heads up but if you're aware you're doing a d*******g behavior, maybe try not to do the d*******g behavior?
I'd actually understand completely, and just get used to it. Obviously, if what they're doing is unbearably disruptive, I'd kindly ask them to try to keep it down, but still.
I can definitely understand being loud because you're having a 2-man. *cough*
This is polite and also amusing. It's amazing what just talking to people can do, and these seem like they'd be fun people to talk to in person as well.
We're becoming homebodies, and sometimes, it's not out of choice, but out of necessity. As visiting fellow at the Center for Economy and Society at Johns Hopkins University, Diana Lind writes for The Washington Post, living in communities where we can socialize with neighbors more often is becoming less and less affordable.
Crazy Neighbor Gets Mad At Friend For Dropping A Single Strand Of Hair And Tapes Up The Hair As Evidence
My friend moved into a new apartment recently. He shares the laundry room with 3 other units. He is unit #1.
While doing laundry the other day, one of my friend’s hair fell off from his head. Obviously, he didn’t know cause he didn’t check the entire room for hairfall — I mean, who the hell checks if any of their hairs fell off their head wherever they go?
Now apparently, the landlord got mad at the sight of a single hair strand and put up a new sign in the laundry room (the bottom sign is new & the upper sign had been there for a while) taping his hair as evidence that he didn’t thoroughly clean the facility.
My friend doesn’t have any severe hair fall issue. The hair normally fell off his head normally just like hair falls off most people’s heads occasionally. Also for the record, my friend cleans the washing machine & dryer surfaces after he uses them. Just seems like he missed this one hair strand.
Who is the jerk here? Idk this seems super crazy to ask someone to keep track of every hair strand that falls of one’s head and pick them up.
At first I thought the hair must have just landed on the tap by mistake when the landlord put it up the sign. But other units have informed me that this landlord taped up someone else’s hair 6 months ago to a sign asking the unit to clean it up.
IMO, this is next level crazy and it’s unreasonable to expect that level of cleanliness.
I can be very spiteful. I'll be taping EVERYTHING I find to the walls. EVERYTHING.
I had a grandmother who would count my hairs every time she cleaned. "I found 6 long black hairs." I was like - what do you want me to do? Wear a hairnet? They had short white hair so they didn't see their own mess that they made. Also had a BF go ballistic on me bc I took a shed hair and put it on the floor. Apparently you're supposed to roll down the window and expel the hair from the car. Some people are insane. I would continue to leave my hair in this laundry room. Just out of spite.
I stayed at an AirBNB in Tokyo once that had detailed instructions to pick up any hair that would fall off you in the shower, and considered it an offence that was good enough to kick you out. They did provide a specific container for the hair, though.
Sounds like somebody had a fet ish if they wanted them in a special container. Possibly for gathering them after you leave.

Oh how, charming. 😡 firstly, disgusting to talk to someone that way about their animal. Secondly, if anyone threatened me about my furbaby, I would probably abuse them but third, if you tried to actively go after my furbaby, I would hurt you them.
I don't doubt that, but on the other hand, I assume your dog would not be outside barking day and night, and charging at people walking past. While the letter is harsher than needed, the frustration is understandable.

Someone Anonymously Sent This To My Neighbor
Nothing worse than a FKN BARKING DOG and inbred/stupid/braindead/ignorant/drugged up/whatever owners who sit there and stare at the FKN DOG while it's screaming hysterically at the FKN SKY for 16+ hours. YES I've had the experience for many, MANY years.
There is something worse than a barking dog - someone who threatens to harm said dog. The dog is just being a dog. You have an issue with it's owner.
Load More Replies...That would make me pause and wonder whether they had a point - but DON'T threaten my pet.
I'm not sure if threatening someone's animal is legal but I hope not!! If I got a note like that, I would be calling the police!
Call the police and keep an eye on your dog. Also, try to train the dog not to bark
Lind claims that Americans are currently divided into three tiers of dwellers:
- those who are financially well-off enough to afford living in amenity-filled neighborhoods;
- those who alternate between isolating days of digital life and in-person socialization depending on whether they have enough money to go to a restaurant, cinema, etc.;
- and those who don't have stable housing, whether that's due to finances or force majeure.
Lind believes that we should change our perspective on socialization. "We should treat 'getting out' as a necessary health intervention rather than an optional luxury or a work burden."
Somebody Left This Note On My Car… In My Assigned Space
I would totally reply to this one ... first asking if it was their assigned space!
I would write the response "Yes it's an assigned space.... MINE. Glad we got that straightened out."
Load More Replies...Reminds me of a woman who couldn't park in the handicap space becasue another tenant (not handicapped) with 6 cars used it. She made friends with a murder of crows and oone day she got into it with the other tenant and he pushed her. The crows saw this. Suddenly his cars were being damaged. He tried blaming it on her but quickly learned that wouldn't work as she wasn't there when the damage occured so he put up cameras. The crows saw this. Turns out they would fly over and drop small rocks on his cars. Pitted the paint and glass. LOL He finally moved.
Crows are amazing. They remember everything you do to them and act accordingly.
Load More Replies...Meanwhile I live in a city where I can't even get people with no placard no plates towed from disabled spots.🤬
I would leave the note on my car, but reply, "This is MY assigned parking spot, so I absolutely WILL continue to park in it."
Oddly, this is sort of nice that the neighbor probably didn't recognize the car (rental? new car?) and was thinking it wasn't supposed to park there. sometimes people forget to take their parking tags or stickers off their car when it is being fixed to put it on their temporary car. Other than it sounding a bit too nosy, I am okay with the note. Although I may have left a note on my dash saying why the car was different if I didn't have my parking ID on the new car.
Woke Up To This Note This Morning
Sheltered what I assumed was a stray cat for two days, called my apartment complex asking if anyone lost their pet, and on day 2, the owner shows up and I returned her cat.
Went To A Friendsgiving
They let their neighbor know ahead of time that they would be having people over, it was 4:45pm on a Saturday and about 6 people were there at that point. He abruptly knocked on the door once, taped this note to the door and ran off.
The spacing of the words disturbs me. There is something going on with this person.

Letter And Response From Two Of My Neighbours I Happen To Share A Wall With
The person watching telly is the one that should buy headphones, I go to bed late at night and always put my headphones on after 9. Is plain courtesy....
Why do people who bother others with their noise always think that it was the other person's job to adjust their life to them being inconsiderate tw@tbaskets?
Yes! My neighbor blasts his car outside our house loud enough to shake it. When I confronted him he said, “I work hard!” Um what does that have to do with anything?
Load More Replies...Yeah, I lived in an apartment with shared neighbors on both sides when I worked a night shift job and I did not expect anyone to alter their life around my schedule. However, I lucked out in that they were very considerate and quiet neighbors, and I returned the favor (I think!) by being quiet too. Everyone should just do their best to be considerate of others, within reason of course.
When I travel to the US, I've seen the thickness of some walls in some hotels and..wow! Whoever wanted to save costs in materials on the construction, they should have used sheets of paper making the walls!
Typical selfish and entitled response. " Oh no, it can't be my fault " " Why can't I do whatever I want ?"

I’ve lived in my building (in Iowa) for two years now above a tattoo shop. I see the guys who work there around town frequently and they have never expressed an issue or been anything but pleasant to me. This showed up last night and has been bothering me ever since. Would they have any legal standing to even make someone pay for damages that result from an artist getting startled? I certainly would like to maintain a cordial relationship with them, since this is my home for another two months, but the whole thing has me feeling uneasy.
I learned last night that one of the artists does in fact have a domestic violence charge against him, during which he showed up unannounced and drunk at his girlfriends home and assaulted her, and the street door to my building can be opened by anyone. The hallway door locks, but can be opened with any key. Just feeling uneasy about the whole thing and wondering if anyone has any insight.
If I saw this walking into a tattooed parlour, I'd be finding a new artist. Being startled this easily and having this much problem with spelling simple words is a big red flag.
Given OP's description of his history, I can *smell* the alcohol emanating from this image.
Load More Replies...I think I'd avoid that tattoo shop - at least if I wanted something other than "no ragrets" ;-)
I'm not sure either. I will say though, it seems as if they pulled their vocabulary and spelling from a book of what NOT to do.

Load More Replies...Neighbors Don't Like My Parents' Shed
They've done their research, spoken to homeowners directly, and aren't breaking any rules or covenants by having a shed where they do, but the neighborhood hates it. It doesn't look bad, but have been told it's an 'eyesore'. No return address or signature from these cowards.
"We can't be bothered to look up in the covenant whether you have a right to do this or not. So we'll just say you don't."
And I don't like the big sheep statue someone has in my neighborhood (when I say I don't like it I mean I wouldn't have it in my yard, it actually makes me giggle when I see it) but guess what? It's not my yard so I don't care. If it were a giant statue of a dong then maybe I'd have something to say but if it's nothing "inappropriate" then get over yourself and let people do what they want with THEIR homes.
Why would anyone have a shed in THE FROMT GARDEN 🤔🤔🤔🤷♀️is that really a thing lol, it’s not in uk, unless people don’t have a back garden , 🤷♀️bizzare , n typical HOAnutters
If there is no rule about location for sheds, they can do nothing. If there is a rule and you ignored it, you should relocate the shed if at all possible. But, stipulate that they must attend a meeting re this and you should be informed of who exactly does not like the shed. That will help to determine where to place it if you move it.
If you choose to live in one of these places with an HOA, then I have no sympathy for you when it comes back to bite you.
"A black-eye is also an eyesore. Come on over and I'll show ya."
This Was Taped To My Door, I Do Not Have Children And My Neighbor Is Now Piling Random People’s Garbage On The Lids Of My Trash Cans
I don’t know my neighbors and tried to talk to the ones that do have children, but they’ve been unresponsive. Went outside again to move my bins for trash day and there were random garbage bags piled on top of them. Going to leave a note back because my neighborhood is not notoriously friendly lol.
This sounds like a group letter. The landlord should make an effort (check the rental agreements, maybe?) to find out who has children. Is your community an open campus? Can people from anywhere walk through? Is it a natural pathway to/from school? Is your landlord's name Karen?

Got Pulled Into Our Neighbors Note War
Saw this note this morning and thought it was funny that we were the assumed note-leavers in the building. There's been a constant note war going on for a year now where notes have been put up asking people to stop smoking in their apartments. Of course these don't deter the smokers and the complex doesn't have a no smoking policy. We are the only dog owners and know this is how apartment living is like with the smoking. This is our response to being dragged into this fight.
No arguments on the dangers, but, per the OP, apparently this is a complex that allows smoking in the units. So it is unreasonable to expect no smoking in your neighbor's units.

Because I Work All Day And Can Control Where The Wind Blows. Was Mailed To Me (Probably By My Neighbor’s Wife), Envelope Postmarked The Next Town Over
Dear Karen, why do you assume 1) the "old man" is poor, 2) the "old man" doesn't enjoy raking leaves? Some of us do, you know. I'm only 76, but I have always enjoyed raking leaves and shoveling snow, as does my 82-year-old sister. Next time, why don't you get out of your entitled universe, grab a rake, and join him? Signed, Just Curious.

This Poorly Written Letter From My Passive Aggressive Neighbor Telling Me To Remove My 'Legally-Owned' Plants From My Property

They'd probably get a fine for misuse of police time and for no doubt calling 911 instead of non emergeny
Our Neighbors Solution To A Newly Poured Driveway On A One-Lane Road
If it’s not their road and it’s a public road, I would purposely have their car towed. I am that petty. I am that vindictive. I would do it just for the sake of doing it. Even if I didn’t live there. Fucķ you and your concrete.
Same. People can’t just block roads because it’s more convenient for them, that’s not how the world works.
Load More Replies...They don't even have a lawn to mess up! Park in the dirt!
Load More Replies...Duct tape on the paint of the car? Bet that didn't go well when they removed it.
They cannot legally block a roadway. If a fire truck needed to go through, the car would require towing and would receive a big ticket and much ire from everyone. They can find a parking place somewhere and walk for one day to their home. Call the police to check the code about parking on street.
I looks like there’s plenty of slightly run down grassy space behind the house, why don’t they just park there? Call a tow truck!
My Neighbor Thinks They Own The Public Street In Front Of Their Apartment
Clever cameras the, ones lol they can tell you who lives where , tad creepy that 😂
In the UK, this would be an infringement of their rights. In America it seems you can film anything you want.
Load More Replies...My apartment has spots that correlate to your apartment number. So, I live in apartment #6 and I get parking spot #6. So convenient. We have probably 50-60 apartment units here and only 4 visitor spots though, but I just make friends park down the street and no one bothers them. Thankfully!
good grief,dont visit the doctors, go shopping, go to the football...you dont live there either
If indeed you do not live there, why are you parking there? That is rude. Either move and apologize or you can expect more trouble. It is doubtful that it is legal to call a tow truck to tow someone else's car if it is on a street that is OK for parking unless the car blocks access to a driveway or parking spot off-street.
Early Morning Shifts Bugs Neighbors
I live in a semi retirement community with my Dad, this letter was left on the window of my work van. I have to be at work most days at 4:45 am. Kind of creepy they left this on my work van knowing there’s two vans that look identical next to each other.
I actually agree with the letter. If you're living in a retirement community, but you're still working, you SHOULD be considerate of your neighbors and NOT slam doors so hard they can hear it loud enough to wake them up. Either move somewhere else that is noisy that early in the morning, or learn to close your door quietly that early in the morning.
I agree with the slamming doors. I do NOT agree with the unwillingness to talk with the person involved.

Aww my bf used to ride his bikes to work in the summer and had to leave around 5:30 - he was so self conscious about waking neighbours up that he’d teeter the bike a block away down the street before starting it. I told him not to worry, it’s the city, he’s only in the driveway for a minute before leaving, people are used to it etc. So he started it in the driveway, and it took 4 days of that before he got an angry note on the door. And I learned a lesson that day - I’m a small town girl but city people don’t like loud noises either 😅 I was young and dumb haha
Load More Replies...Ok I agree here . More so given where op lives , just cos they start work at silly am ,doesn’t mean he HAS to slam his dam doors , well rude ,
You dimbulbs asking why someone living in a retirement community still works, um, lots of retirees, especially in the USA, still have to work. Lots of retirees in the UK still have to work. Lots of retirees around the World still like to work. Just because you live in a "retirement community" doesn't mean you can't work. JFC! I can't with you folks sometimes.

When they first moved in, I could hear her screaming, "STOP IT! I HATE YOU! GET AWAY FROM ME! I HATE YOU!" And similar things to... someone? I could only hear one person though. I never heard anything (other than their closet door because it butts up against mine) or had any complaints from the previous neighbors. I came close to having a wellness check done a couple of times but then it would stop. I haven't heard them screaming in a while.
Was traveling with couple friends and shared a house. My husband goes to bed early. Passed a friend in the hallway. He says, "Is that Dave?" He's hearing thunderous snoring coming from our room. I say, "Welcome to my world." He will not get a sleep test. I use a sound machine. There are some things you cannot control and some things you have to live with - husband's/neighbor's snoring. Agree that if things sound too rough next door it needs to be checked out, though.
I sympathise with you. Both of my parents snore, so loud. So do I. So does my brother. I never used to snore. After I was in the comas I now snore louder than plain engines. It’s disgusting. I’m female and I snort louder than any male I’ve ever known. I am so ashamed of it. I won’t even sleep near my partner. I’ve never had a sleepover with my boyfriend and we’ve been together for nine months LOL. I don’t want him to know, I don’t want him to hear it. I am terrified of him finding out because it is absolutely disgusting. Some nights. I’ve woken myself up as I’ve started falling asleep. I’ve asked doctors about it, I’ve had a sleep test done all of it and they said all of my chords in my Associes oesophagus etc. Were crushed from all the tubes and piping etc. Basically when I was in the comas and yeah that’s what the damage is from.

What would you do if they starting running around in the middle of the night and woke your kids up? Everyone has to live with each other. Give the person some slack.
