'[I] spent hours online signing [him] up for every free publication I could find': Community praises man who went through extreme lengths to get revenge on a passive aggressive neighbor

Ah, the joys of suburban shenanigans. So this story takes place back in the 2000s when a young couple built their first home in a fancy new neighborhood. They're the newcomers, but things are all friendly at first. They even make friends with their older neighbors, Gary and his wife, until things started to get a lil spicy.

The young couple, who we'll call Joe and Sarah, start doing well financially thanks to Joe's job as a land developer. They have a new house, new cars, and even a fancy wakeboard boat. But as they say, not everyone's a fan of your success. 

Enter Gary, the neighbor from across the street, who began throwing passive-aggressive comments their way. "Must be nice being young and rich," he'd grumble, as if Joe and Sarah weren't working hard for their gains. Then things got real awkward when Joe started investing in a hefty trailer and even more shiny toys. Gary suddenly developed an eagle eye for parking violations and didn't hesitate to tattle.

But Joe, instead of blowing his top, opted for a more playful approach. He unleashed a string of epic pranks on Gary, from signing him up for unwanted subscriptions to magazines and newsletters to some genuinely embarrassing stuff. It's all in good spirits, though; no one gets hurt (except maybe Gary's pride). It's just some good ol' petty revenge to make Joe feel better.
