Some people don't know how to pick their battles, like these next door neighbors.
U/PipeOrganTransplant shared their neighborhood drama, which all started with a hedge. The OP loves their forsythia hedge, while the neighbors think it blocks their view. But the rules and regulations around them state that the neighbors can't do anything about the plants. So instead, they got creative, and tried to find other ways to bring the OP down a peg.
There are some people in life that you just can't please, because they like complaining. It's like whining is a sport to them, and they'll find even the littlest of issues to chatter on about. Perhaps this couple were like that---after all, they were complaining about a forsythia hedge, which grows lovely yellow flowers. Oh, these beautiful gifts from nature are blocking your view? Grow up.
At least the OP and their brother managed to find a solution to get back at their neighbors. I'm sure that will be their new favorite topic to gab about.
People in the comments loved the story, and few had their own neighborhood tales to share. Check it all out below. Then, these kids had a bake sale together, but when one kid left early, his mom got involved---and brought receipts with her.
