'His neighbor [...] started hosting loud parties into the night': Engineer rigs apparatus to sabotage neighbor's incessant pool parties

Never mess with an engineer!

Having an engineer for a neighbor can be very useful in the right circumstances, but if you manage to frustrate them, things can backfire in unexpected ways. Here, we have a retired father who confessed to his kid about all the acts of petty revenge he has enacted on his difficult, noisy neighbors next door after they started hosting loud pool parties on weeknights regularly. Some of this pettiness ranges from launching debris over the property line to planting trees that would sabotage their backyard. 

You have to hand it to this guy for putting his technical skills to good use long after he stopped working. We're confident that this is not what his engineering professors from back in the day were hoping for his future, but we're proud of the guy. Keep scrolling below for the full story and for the best reactions from folks in the comments section. For more, check out this story about some office-related malicious compliance.
