An entitled teen is forced to face the consequences of his actions after continuously parking in the illegal spot outside of his neighbor's place. Though the neighbor kept asking him not to park there, he ignored him, so the neighbor had to take matters into his own hands and buried his car deep in the snow.

It's obvious when you meet an adult who never had to face the consequences of their actions as a kid. They don't need to be traumatic lessons, but they do, indeed, need to be lessons learned. If you don't ever face consequences, then you are going to grow up thinking you can get away with whatever you want, thus becoming an entitled human. That is the direct path into becoming a full-on male or female Karen. And we don't need any more entitlement in the world, please!

So, after time and time again of this neighbor trying to politely ask this teenager and his parents to not park his car in that illegal spot and being ignored, he decided all bets were off the table. If this kid's parents weren't going to teach him that there are consequences to his actions, then he is about to learn today. The straw that broke the camel's back? After the snowstorm, the plows, which already took forever to get to his street, did not plow his section because that dang car was illegally parked there. 

Now he had to go out and remove the snow on his own, but karma decided to help him out too…

  • This neighbor didn't start using his snow blower for revenge, he was truly just doing the work the snowplows didn't, at first… However, he quickly realized that the wind was in his favor, and the snow blowing out of his machinery was going directly onto the teen's car. So, he decided that's exactly where that snow should go. After he cleared his area, this kid's car was several feet buried under snow. 

    That's karma for ya, kiddo! 

  • On of my neighbors has a kid that like to park on a no parking side on my street, it just happens to be next to the end of my driveway.

  • I live in Boston and last Sunday we got slammed. My town got 20 inches. This kid leaves his car on the street and the town sucks at towing.

  • The plow came down and to avoid the car basically missed my whole side. I have talked to the neighbor before about this, in good weather it makes pulling out difficult for me, but they don't care.

  • Anyway, I go out to snow blow and the wind was blowing in the direction of the car so I turn my chute over to that direction.

  • I had to not just do my driveway but the street were the plow missed. The stream eventually landed on his car, accidentally at first.

  • I then said fuck it and just the the chute directed at their car at all times.

  • I added more snow to the drivers side, right up the sidewalk, which I did not snow blow.
    via MerryMisandrist
  • The snow piled up on the passengers side from the plow going back the other way.
    via MerryMisandrist
  • By the time I was done it was pretty buried. I went out the next day on Monday to do some more clean up and the kid was trying to shovel himself out.
    via MerryMisandrist
  • He said something about getting snowed / dumped on and my reply was he should not have parked there to begin with.
    via MerryMisandrist
  • He asked if he could borrow the snow blower to get himself out and I said no.

  • The mother came over later to bitch me out threaten me with the damage and I told her to call the cops and closed the door on her.

  • I know shes not going to call them as they were parked illegally and they would probably give the kid a big fine for both the parking and being there in a storm.
    via MerryMisandrist
  • We are not close or on good terms, so I did not care much either way.

  • Nonna_Momma_30 So bizzare that they won't tow illegally parked vehicles!

  • OP MerryMisandrist Small town stuff, takes more time.

  • kiwimuz NTA. You only placed snow where no car should be parked. The fact a car was on the no parking area is their dumb luck.

  • riny58 NTA. You are the victim of chronic boundary violations regarding parking, which directly impacted your ability to exit your property during a 20-inch blizzard. You didnt accidentally bury his car; you deliberately used the snow removal process as necessary recourse after repeated ignored requests. The real AH is the neighbor who habitually parks illegally and impedes access. Your next move isnt apologizing; its suggesting they invest in a 4x4 or learn how to shovel 20 inches of snow off a

  • MrsSnuffleupagus764 Do you live IN the City of Boston or a surrounding town? If you're in Boston, call the non emergency number for your district every single time he parks there. Be the squeaky wheel.

  • 2LostFlamingos People need to learn to respect the rules. His breaking of rules caused a hardship for you. So he is the A for me.

  • The kid still had the audacity to ask to borrow his snowblower to get his car out of the snow, and the guy refused. The mom also had the audacity to come over and try to complain about him putting the snow on her son's car. She even threatened to call the cops, in classic Karen fashion. The man laughed in her face and told her to go right ahead. Because he didn't break any laws, her son, however, was parked illegally and could very much be towed. 

    Hopefully, both teen and mom learned a lesson from all of this. 

  • grrrrxxff Boston has extremely clear street etiquette, especially in winter. You know you were fully justified

  • Radar Rogue NTA. You gave him consequences for his shitty behavior that were easily overcome, AND let him know why. If he doesn't learn his lesson, have it towed next time. Some people are far too comfortable with being disrespectful of their neighbors and getting away with it.

  • NTA SunshynePower Start calling the cops every time he's illegally parked. I mean, the war has already started so I hope you have security cameras up to prevent then being dicks. Trust me, they are already plotting. Not being the AH doesn't mean the jerks don't hit back.

  • Silly Tugboats NTA. But the neighbors sure are. Sounds like you've been dealing with entitlement for a bit and I don't blame you for how you handled it. Maybe a little bit of a jerk for blowing the snow directly on the car but it was also the car that caused you to be blocked in to begin with so I think you are justified. Maybe they will think twice about parking there again.
