Neighbor Builds Driveway On Couple's Property, Revenge Follows


Neighbor revenge is the best revenge. What we've got here is a fine case of a rude and entitled neighbor creating negative chaos around them, by going so far as to build a driveway on another person's property without receiving permission. The audacity. It blows the mind. 

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge + JOIN u/diypackraft • 2y Build a driveway across someone else's property without permission? Pay the price. Not sure if this is "pro" enough, but here goes: I was visiting my friend at his dad's house in an area where the land is so steep all the driveways have to switchback up from the main road to the houses - a straight driveway is not an option because it would be steeper than the building code allows.

2.

Text - A few doors down the road there lived a nice old couple who until recently had had a vacant lot next door to them, but the lot had sold and the new owner had started construction on a new house. Unfortunately the lot was so steep that the new owner built his driveway partly on the old couple's land (it was carved out of the hillside with an excavator). This probably wouldn't have been a big deal if the new owner had approached the old couple first and asked nicely, but did he? Would I be

3.

Text - The old guy gave him a call and politely explained the situation, but his new neighbor, whom he'd never even met, was having none of it. He flat out denied that the driveway crossed the property line, and he was rude enough that the old guy was pretty upset. At this point the old couple weren't sure what to do. They double checked the property pins to make sure they were right, and of course they were, but after further conversations with the new owner it was clear he was an unreasonable

4.

Text - The old couple didn't want to take legal action because that would have been expensive and, frankly, the damage to their yard was already done. At the same time, they couldn't just let someone walk all over them like that, especially if they were going to be living next door for the foreseeable future. So the situation stewed for a while as construction continued on the new house, until one day when my friend's dad saw the old couple in the neighbourhood and they started chatting. Of cour

5.

Text - That evening, after a few beers, he had a brilliant idea. He called up the old couple, explained his plan, and asked for their permission to carry it out. They chuckled and gave him the go-ahead, so he hopped into the rusty old full-size pickup he kept as a second vehicle and drove it over to the old couple's place, where he parked it across the encroaching driveway, making sure it was entirely on their property.

6.

Text - The next morning the work crew arrived bright and early to find that they couldn't drive to the house they were building because some jackass had parked a shitty old F-150 across the driveway. They saw the note in the window with my friend's dad's phone number on it, so they called him to ask WTF. He explained that he had permission from the owners to park there and that, no, he would not move his truck so they could get to work. Furthermore, if anyone attempted to tow the truck they woul

7.

Text - The new owner called the old couple in a fury, but the old couple told them the same thing my friend's dad told the construction workers - basically, the vehicle was parked on their own property, so if he had a problem with that he could go fuck himself. To make an already long story shorter, the new neighbor ranted a while, but eventually he wanted his house to be built, so the nice old couple ended up with a significant sum of money in exchange for an easement allowing the driveway to p

Text - This occurred in a small town in Canada. For those who think I made it up, thanks for thinking l'm so clever, but judging by the number of similar stories in the comments and people asking if this was in X town, I think this happens pretty often (not too surprising considering the number of houses built each year in the world). Regarding the legal questions and comments, the reason the guy built the driveway where he did was because it was cheaper and easier than making it all on his land

9.

Text - I'm on mobile so can't Paint a picture, but imagine two lots next to each other on the uphill side of a road with the property boundary perpendicular to the road. The older couple live on the left when you're looking uphill. The new driveway is for the property on the right, and it snakes up the hill in a (roughly) S shape. The bottom 50 feet or so of the driveway crosses the old couple's land to reach the road. I'm not sure if any trees were harmed in the making of this post (the drivewa

Majestically Incompetent "Not My Job" Moments


"Hey man, they told me to paint the wall. They didn't say anything about not painting over the security camera lense." Whether it's an honest mistake, a case of neglect or straight up dumbassery, things often don't get done the way they should. Here's to the wonderfully unprofessional "not my job" moments of the world. If we're lacking one thing, it isn't finely tuned incompetence.

Most Blatant Cases Of Favoritism People Witnessed


It's just unfair. Yes, favoritism can be infuriating at times. Whenever you witness someone getting preferential treatment, for whatever reason, and as a result, finding yourself in a potentially more disadvantageous situation. Favoritism can really get under people's skin. These accounts of favoritism are certainly enough to get the blood boiling.

Text - gaydes69 · 21h The middle school gym teacher was a bitch to anyone who wasn't either a jock or a girl, so me and the boys always got the short end of the stick when it came to being put on teams for activities. because a relay race between the kids that run track, and the kids that have the stamina of a level 1 rpg character is a fair race apparently.

Text - twothirtysevenam • 18h Way back in elementary school, I had three classmates ("Kim", "Kelli", and "Kristi") whose mothers handled all of our classroom parties. We always had an egg hunt around Easter. The three students who found the most eggs won chocolate bunnies. We had about thirty kids in our class, and all of us were to bring in three eggs to be hidden. The teacher would pull down the window shades so we couldn't look outside to see where the moms hid the eggs on the playground. Eve

Every single parent who helped organize the raffle had a child who won big and the main organizer had her son win the 2500 dollar grand prize with the not suspicious speech of "and of course, the winner of the grand prize is Charlie." Yeah fuck that shit, I walked out with a 5 dollar gift card to an ice cream shop that had already gone out of business

The older sister got extensive cosmetic dentistry work done and the younger brother got braces. The middle child wasn't taken to see a dentist for 5 years at one point; all while the other dentistry work was going on with her two siblings. The parents truly just ignored her and let the other siblings walk all over her.

He got away with everything, and all of the bad stuff was somehow my fault, even if I had no idea what was going on. We don't have a good relationship.
