'He has no idea what's next': Resident meddles with neighbor's plans to construct a roof for elderly father, so neighbor builds 80-foot wall

One grumpy, 'neighborly' man took things too far when he blocked the road, not allowing construction workers to drive through to his fellow neighbor's property, to build a roof for their elderly, 93-year-old father.

This neighbor, who we will call OP, told the story on u/pettyrevenge, and at the end of it, asked people which color would be the most unattractive color to paint a fence. Obviously, not his own side. But let's start at the beginning. What happened goes as follows… OP's neighbor blocked the road, despite being told by OP that trucks would be driving through, which led to OP getting mad, which resulted in OP building a staggeringly high, ugly fence to spite his neighbor.

One thing led to another, and a petty back and forth ensued, which consisted of building permits, colors, yelling, taping, and whatnot. OP even uploaded pictures of the fence to his post, which I have generously provided below, to give readers a better idea of what exactly was going on. The neighbor told OP he needed a permit, which OP happily provided (turns out it is not that hard to get a permit), and that set the neighbor off all over again. To find out what exactly went down, you can scroll down and read the screenshots.

Next, a factory's lawyer played a very long game of revenge, but ultimately ended in victory for both the factory, and the lawyer.
