Karen throws fit at neighbor for using her electricity to mow her lawn, cue payback: 'I can't pick my neighbors, but I can pick their lock'

Imagine having the audacity to throw a temper tantrum at your neighbor for using your electricity after he did it to mow your lawn. For the full context, this dude shared a duplex with his aggressive Karen neighbor and had decided to mow the lawn once the grass was overgrown and overdue. After taking care of his half of the lawn, he thought it would be kind (and aesthetically appealing) to mow the other half of the lawn, which belonged to the Karen. She never enjoyed upkeep, anyway. Well, in order to perform this act of generosity, the Redditor had to plug his lawn mower into the Karen's outlet because the cord was simply not long enough to reach from his own personal outlet. 

This upset the Karen to no end, and she gave the Redditor an earful for it. She subsequently purchased cheap clear boxes to place over her outlet and to lock them from further use. That's when the idea for the petty revenge sparked. Keep scrolling below for the full story and for the best reactions from folks in the comments section.
