Update: 'While I could have argued... I had a better plan': Neighbor warns college kid that if her lawn isn't mowed, she'll report them to HOA

Common sense isn't gifted to every person. Sometimes things will seem so crystal clear to you, and so obvious, that you can't understand how anyone could mess it up. But without common sense, people do dumb things. This woman in particular had a bone to pick with her neighbor, and I bet you can guess why her neighbor was refusing to mow her lawn for her. 

While some people really dislike mowing the lawn, others find it cathartic. If you can listen to music or a podcast over the crazy loud sound of the machine, it's not so bad. At least it's a good workout, while you're also doing a necessary chore. 

U/somethingintheyard told a story that happened to them as a college student, during a time where they were in the habit of mowing the grass for their parents. The OP didn't mind it too much, and they even mow another neighbor's yard just out of the goodness of their heart. That's what good neighbors do---they take care of one another. That respect has to go both ways though, as the OP's crabby neighbor quickly discovered.
