Good Deed Goes Terribly Wrong When Neighbor Repays the Favor of Reciprocal Lawn Mowing

No good deed goes unpunished, even when that good deed is repaid with another one. Redditor u/DudeFromBahston posted to the popular subreddit r/tifu to share exactly how they learned that lesson after offering to mow their neighbor's lawn one time. The neighbors must have really appreciated OP's efforts, so they decided to return the favor, but the neighbors murdered OP's freshly seeded lawn in the process. Tragic.

You would think that, perhaps, the neighbor would notice that the lawn had been freshly seeded. But sometimes any of us would miss such a crucial detail when we are set on repaying a favor. Especially when it is at the reminder and behest of our significant other. Always best to stay in your neighbor's good graces if possible, right? Hopefully, OP's lawn wasn't too destroyed by the reciprocal mowing — it's a devastating tale that fortunately doesn't really have any actual bad behavior involved.
