Some people live to complain. They have easy, comfortable, happy lives, and that bores them. They’re so bored that they have to seek out problems to complain about, as it makes them feel important. When I was a teenager working at a restaurant in an incredibly wealthy community, I was always shocked by how little …

Dad procrastinates taking his 3, 5, and 8-year-old kids to the park, tries to get his 40-week pregnant wife to bring them to the pool with their neighbor: ‘I said no’
We live in an age of child supervision, whether you like it or not. Long gone are the days when parents tell their kids to go outside at 10 AM and they don’t come back home until the sun goes down. Something about the crime-conscious culture of the 80s and 90s made it so parents …

Nosy 60-year-old grandma demands her 27-year-old neighbor give her the $10 rocking chair that she thrifted, insists her grandkids need it: ‘No, Carol. I’m really not interested in selling this. Please go home.’
The generations are colliding in suburban neighborhoods all throughout the country. Well actually, they aren’t colliding nearly as much as they should be. My parents live in a typical suburb that you’d think would be populated mostly by families. Well unfortunately most young families with children can’t afford to live in such a suburb, leaving …

If you’re not new here, you know that neighbor quarrels are inevitable in almost every situation. Folks have disagreements over grass height, parking spots, and kids playing in the empty streets of their picture-esque cul-de-sac every day. Usually, the situation is handled by either an HOA or personally before any legal action can be taken. …

Fed-up neighbor calls police on woman’s clucking ‘emotional support chickens’: ‘The constant racket is driving me crazy’
Pets can be incredibly helpful to one’s mental health. They don’t stop needing to be taken care of, even if you’re feeling down. They get you out of bed, into a semblance of a routine, and help you become a person. Their love for you can also provide great emotional relief, and you can rest …

‘I put Baby Shark on a loop’: Sleepy neighbor teaches the remodelers next door a lesson about noise courtesies by weaponizing annoying children’s music
There’s nothing more annoying than Baby Shark. You’ve heard it, you’ve loathed it, and you’ve had it stuck in your head for the last decade (yeah, I just looked it up, it came out in 2015–oof). And although parents will tell you that the catchiest, goofiest kids’ songs will eventually become white noise once you …

Dad punishes 7-year-old daughter for stealing neighbor’s puppy, doubles down on punishment after neighbor says their son lost the puppy: ‘It’s the principle, and she should listen to her father’
It’s difficult to tell whether a kid is lying. Many kids lie recreationally, just because they’re in the mood to make something up or report an interesting happening that didn’t happen. But it would be remiss to assume that kids lie more often then they tell the truth. If you assume the worst when a …

Neighbor Refuses to Host a Random Kid’s Birthday Party in Her Immaculate Garden, Entitled Karen Next Door Threatens to Trespass Without Permission
Taking care of a garden is a lot of work. As someone who can barely keep an indoor pothos plant alive, I know that there must be a lot that goes into plant care, keeping lawns in good shape, and mending broken bush branches. It’s tough work! So when the Karen in our next story …

‘I told him to go away and get a life’: Nosy boomer freaks out when neighbor paints their house peach, refuses to move to an HOA community because he’s lived there 15 years
If you want to control your neighbor’s houses, you must move into a neighborhood with a Homeowner’s Association. That is the only way you can guarantee that all of the mulch in everyone’s front lawn is the right color and that no pink flamingos will take permanent residency on your street. If you move into …

Classless couple steals tray of food from neighborhood barbecue while everyone else is eating: ‘It was the tackiest thing I’ve ever seen in real life’
There’s nothing like a good barbecue with friends, especially in the summer. My neighborhood has a block party every year, and it’s a wonderful chance to get the kids together, eat some home-cooked food, and run around pelting everyone with water balloons. It’s good fun. But, like anything, there is an etiquette to these kinds …
