Some people in this world have nothing better to do than spy on their neighbors, gossip about them, and start pointless conflicts with them. Whatever happened to leaving one another alone? Ah, who am I kidding? I love the gossip part, but I would never go so far as to buy a camera to spy on someone or to report them every time they grilled food. That's just creepy and/or annoying. Get a life, people!

That being said, there is some satisfaction that comes with reading about these neighbor wars. It makes me feel better about the fact that I literally have no idea who else lives on my floor in my cramped apartment building existence. First of all, who has time to get to know more people when you're a working adult? Who even has the energy?! Keep scrolling below for this collection of the top mildly infuriating neighbors online. When you're done, check out this compilation of entitled people stories.

    T mahelke OP. Context: I haven't been able to care for my yard as much as I would like over the past few months because we had our second child back in February and I've been single-handedly caring for the newborn and our 5 year old while my wife has been in the hospital recovering from postpartum complications.
