Man sends city officials to neighbor's house after his fence collapses, plan backfires: 'My uncle looked him in the eye and said, "Not my problem"'

Tall fences make good neighbors, right? That's how the saying goes, and it often rings true. Although it's great to get to know your neighbors and reap the benefits that come with it, having your own privacy is important, too. It can be hard to enjoy your own space with your neighbors always breathing down your neck, asking you personal questions, or badgering you to do things differently with your property.

Some neighbors just can't wait to make their neighbor's lives harder, like this dude who couldn't help but pester the guy next door after his fence collapsed. Instead of offering to help out, or even just extending some condolences, this guy had to make a huge fuss out of it. Check out the full story below — it's very satisfying!

Up next, read about the nepo-hire who tried to claim a 15-page report as her own, only for her coworker to embarrass her in front of the CEO: "[She] took all the credit."

This dude's plan totally backfired! That's what happens when you kick someone when they're down. Did the neighbor really think the uncle would be thrilled to spend thousands redoing the fence? The uncle made a smart choice here, and the neighbor is left to lay in that bed he made.
