People Are Sharing Their Examples Of ‘Neighbors From Hell’ On This Instagram Page (30 Pics)
“Love your neighbor as yourself” is easy to say and hard to do. Some of us are fortunate enough to have lovely neighbors who bake us homemade pies and invite us over for a barbeque (don’t worry, they have plenty of veggies to grill if you’re vegan). The rest of us are… well, far less lucky in whom we live next to.
There are neighbors from heaven and then there are neighbors from hell. They play loud music at night. They take your parking spot. They make your life miserable. And sometimes they end up on the Neighbors From Hell Instagram page, dedicated to collecting the best of the worst neighbor experiences. Scroll down and check some of these stories out and don’t forget to upvote your fave ones. Let us know in the comments what the worst neighbors you’ve ever had were like and read on for some tips on how to deal with jerk neighbors.

Wish my neighbours kids only left things over the line by 3 inches. The cycle all the way around my family's cars on my drive and keep falling off.
Pure gold...from the contact name, to the final "that's what she said" lol
My parents' idiot neighbor kept getting upset over an alley between his property and my parents' property. He even had a surveyor come out. The surveyor deemed that the alley is public property and we can be in it. This same guy's brother broke into my parents' backyard to steal stuff.
People do get upset over some odd things! Last night three teens sat on a footpath that runs in front of my house, right next to my drive but no barrier, and proceeded to have a good natter. They were socially distanced and doing nothing wrong. Drove my dogs MAD as they think everything outside the windows is 'theirs'! I just shut the windows and turned the TV on and gave my dogs a chew each! Life is too short to get het up about certain things. Though when my neighbour came home they had to scatter as he nearly ran them all over...
Load More Replies...I wish this was my biggest problem with my neighbor. She thinks leaf blowing is a competitive sport that she has to practice for hours on a daily basis as close to my window as she can get. It's torturous after a while, I can't take a nap, can't have conversations unless I close the window and go to another room. I hate her like nothing I've ever hated before. And she has one of those shrill voices that goes right through walls. I can't escape that cow.
My neighbors have called Code Compliance on me seven times for feeding the stray cats. Made me come up with a suicide plan.
@Edward. Because it is a wild animal (in America), and a very common one at that. There is a joke from northern Scandinavia about the tourists who called the police about the elk that had escaped from the zoo...
Load More Replies...Why yes, it’s yours now. That’s how the legalities of racoon ownership work.
This is the exotic Trash Panda, and he has chosen you as his owner. Congratulations.
This is just cute... my wife didn't distinguish between badgers and raccoons (while living on a raccoon-free continent). Send photo back of a cougar or sabretooth tiger, with "Have you seen my cat?" or "That's not my cat, this is my cat!", it's the only way forward.
Or a "Your red dog chased my cat" with a pic of a fox.
Load More Replies...Yeah, I'm wondering how sheltered you have to be to have never seen a raccoon before
Load More Replies...If you know the walls are thin and you still yell loud enough for the neighbors to hear your conversation, why are you complaining that they heard your conversation?
I have heard my neighbor’s daughter-monster and her boyfriend-monster fight several times, after hours. They are loud as f**k and argue like someone was playing out the most tired & cliched “white trash couple” argument script. I know women participate in toxic masculinity, but I somehow was surprised to hear this young woman calling her own boyfriend “a little b***h”. Also, she generally sounds like an animal, making wooting, hooting, whooping noises, screams, and basically yells every other sentence she says. She baby-talks to, and makes animal noises at, her toddler daughter and I have this disgusting feeling of witnessing ignorant white trash programming its innocent offspring to be mindless animals just like the parents. It’s depressing on top of enraging.
Lmao my neighbors fought everyday till they broke up because she cheated on him. They fought all hours of the night. If you're going to keep me up at 3am then yeah I'm gonna listen cause now you're my entertainment.
I'm laughing at this and remembering the couple that lived in the apartment across the hall from me and my (then) husband when we were newlyweds. They were also newlyweds, and also both morticians. The apartment floor plans were exactly the same, just mirror images of each other - meaning the bedrooms were as far apart as they could possibly get - ours was on the west side of the building, theirs on the east - and there was a hallway between the apartments. We would routinely hear them make enough noise while having sex to "wake the dead", so to speak...and yes, given their occupations, we used that joke often. ;-)
Damn who screamed like a b***h the loudest her or him...
Load More Replies...And YOU DIDN'T share the popcorn, Rude neighbour from Hell. You could have shared.
A friend purse-dialed me and I listened to her and her boyfriend fight and then "make up." I never said anything, but she later mentioned that she saw the phone call was over 2 hours long. She said I blushed -- I said I was so envious and if she ever splits with him, I won't suspect it was his fault.
What I'm thinking is, if you can't stand your neighbor, then WITF do you have his cellphone number so you can text with him or her??!
The Neighbors From Hell IG community is 269k people strong and anyone can send them a submission. Send them a quick message if you’re enduring neighborly hell at the moment.
Dealing with bad neighbors is a delicate situation. You have to be diplomatic yet firm, tough but fair if you want to live peacefully. There are several different types of jerk neighbors. From racket makers and slobs to careless pet owners and worse.
Sad reality here is that the car that stealing the spot will probably just have the actual owners car towed instead.
I blocked in a truck that was in my reserved parking space and he tried to run the curb, ripped up the undercarriage of his truck and tried to sue me. The Small Claims magistrate awarded him $1 reparations, but asked if I wanted to counter-sue for use of my parking space for two days it took for his truck to be towed. I said sure and was awarded $3000.
How do you or anyone else knows it's a he or if he has a small penis? Did you peek?
Load More Replies...Was "awkward mine is down too it must be a widespread problem" so hard to type?!
Never considered that the neighbor was actually speaking the truth? If I scan the wifi-networks in my neighborhood, I can connect to at least 25% of them without any problems. If people only would stop using "12345678" and "WiFiPassword" as passwords....
Load More Replies...My friends used to use this as their wifi password - 'Didyouknowthatthewifipasswordcanbeupto63letterslong' :D
I love that people are honest in these posts. Not coming up with a bad excuse. We need more honesty in the world. Not less
How is this "neighbor from hell"? Seems pretty polite to me.
Better yet... "Sotty, mine is down, too, and won't be fixed until Monday."
I don’t care about what they want to do with their lives as not as they aren’t bothering anyone else’s... this’s an example of bothering someone else with own life/music
I did not know that hearing guided meditation could lead to homicidal thoughts.
It really could. If it's coming from the next door neighbor. Trust me. :/
Load More Replies...Some hard core punk would be better idea maybe.
Load More Replies...Real estate expert Barbara Corcoran told Today that the best way to avoid bad neighbors is to spot them early. So if you’re planning on buying or renting a new property, have a drive around the neighborhood at night to see how people in the area behave like when the sun goes down. Also, have a chat with the local store owners about what the locals are like.
However, what are you supposed to do if you’re already living next to someone who’s making your daily life hard to bear?
Why do Americans often refer to going to the toilet as ‘going to the bathroom’? Even when there is no bath in the toilet(room). Here the dog ‘went to the bathroom’ which in this case meant he pooped on the grass. Is toilet considered a bad or impolite word in America? I’ve always wondered about this but never had anyone to ask.
Going to have to confess I've wondered the same thing. Though to be fair we don't have cloaks in my cloakroom... 😁
Load More Replies...Doggies like soaking in the bath with a glass of chilled white wine! Or maybe that's me...
Load More Replies...I had this issue with a neighbor. I use a shovel and "returned" the s**t. I so concur with this one!
Seems like having security cameras is well worth their cost - for rthe entertainment value at least
Share cause then you care if you think they won’t know here comes karma! 😂
Walls made of rigid materials mechanically attached to each other are even worse. I hear my neighbors talk, sneeze, snore, f**k, argue, and I hear their TVs, phones, and alarms. I f*****g HATE shared surfaces.
Load More Replies...First one. Second one was just farting in their own home.
Load More Replies...Hahaha, I would rather hear someone fart than someone vomiting. That is why I could NEVER live in a unit or apartment.
I agree... it´s enought for me to hear someone vomit - not tolking about seeing someone vomit... aaand I vomit too.
Load More Replies...Haven't you heard? Cats belong to noone, you belong to them.
I really, really, REALLY need to know how this one played out. Is there a story behind the original posting of this somewhere?
If you don't want other people to feed your cat, you keep your cat inside your home. Simple.
Agreed! Why is it any different from owning a dog? I have a cat, love him, and therefore keep him safe.
Load More Replies...My parents recently had to bring their cat (a stray (VERY STRAY, fleas and skinny and all) ginger tabby) to the vet a couple of weeks ago, for the first time since they've had him (for 6 or 7 years). Turns out he has a registered chip and actually lived around the corner XD And his name was Jimmy. However, the house he apparently used to live was empty, shades closed, no one there (my mom went there like 4 times). And when he first came to us, he was extremely shy and skittish and traumatized, took us years to gain his trust. He had never seen a tv, was truly mesmerized by it. So I'm happy he's with us and not with that person around the corner...
Raised a query in my head! Not sure we would be allowed to be told the details of the original owners in the UK due to data protection regulations 🤔. Think the vet would have to keep the animal and check into the original owners. Then only release to a potential new owner when sure the old one was no longer around, available or wanted the animal or if they were abusive. Don't think they could share the name and address with the person bringing in the poor animal at all. Lucky you didn't have that problem.
Load More Replies...I hope the cat is microchipped with the real owner’s information. Otherwise this could get messy.
It is, that's why they obviously wrote Oh, please do, it will be fun.
Load More Replies...I almost had a neighbor take my cat once. I heard him say "Oh that cat has yellow eyes, it's a stray!" Nevermind he's clearly well fed and hanging out with our other cat. He must be a stray because he has yellow eyes! I immediately went and grabbed both of my cats before anything happened. I'm still trying to figure out that line of reasoning. We've moved since then and have no more weird neighbors to worry about like that.
Weird. Did they think being a stray caused yellow eyes??? What a strange way to think!
Load More Replies...My dad got adopted my a cat that actually belonged to his neighbors but they didn't care for the poor thing at all and kicked up no fuss when my dad moved and took the cat with him.
This happened to my brother, he thought his cat ran away, 4 years later he noticed it sleeping on one of his neighbors sofa
He should have kept better track of his pet. So no letting him roam around the streets.
Load More Replies...I’ve always wondered if my boy cat used to be someone’s cat before I made him mine. He wasn’t fixed and no one nearby acknowledged missing a cat, but he was just so pleasant and healthy when we trapped him (suspected of hurting my ex’s other cat, but clearly wasn’t him).
Yeah we kept a stray pregnant cat. Now we have 3 kitties and mama.
Load More Replies...Well, the first step would be to set up a time to talk to your neighbor in person about what’s bothering you. The important thing is not to accuse them (people always get defensive when someone does that) but to let them know what’s bothering you and to suggest ways to solve the issue. Together.
Chances are a friendly chat or two might work. But if they don’t, talk to your local neighborhood or building association and ask them to step in. And if that doesn’t work and your neighbors continue to be aggressively disruptive, call your local precinct.
OMG, I just snort laughed. I don't think he will forget all about the fires after the burn you just gave him.
Call it a hunch, but I'm guessing these two are actually good, middle-aged friends.
And you thought wild fires travel fast. Just watch that smoke trail from her exit.
I always enjoy notices from the Department of Redundancy Department.
Load More Replies...I wonder if someone actually had the guts to claim it back. I would just leave it if it was me.
My boyfriend sexted me that he wanted me to "stick it someplace hot and wet." So I did.
HA! This happened to me. A transgender neighbor, female to male, left his rubber parts in the wash.... obviously pre-Op transgender. I just gave them back, he was a nice kid.
Drink it black next time you k**b. Though people should realise that the most experienced burglars know the places where you're likely to hide a key and those hide a key things really aren't that hidden.
The fact that this person doesn't see anything wrong with what they did even worse.
One of my colleagues once had a scary encounter when she'd forgotten the entry code to our workplace and a neighbour walking past her gelofully told her the code. We didn't even know this neighbour's name and he must have gleaned the code just from walking past employees when they entered it!
I think it's kinda nice of that person to tell them before they freaked out... also, now she/he knows that the key-hiding-place is pretty obvious and can do something about it. And I find it slightly hilarious, to be honest... Inappropriate as hell, but hilarious nontheless
A friend was supposed to be looking after my neighbours dogs but I had their keys (long story). He got in still as they'd left an upstairs window open thinking that no-one could reach it. We made sure that they knew about it so that they kept that window shut when they went out in future. He's also broken in for customers who have locked themselves out... beginning to wonder if there is something he's not telling me.
Load More Replies...Also scary is that to most insurance companies, something like this will not constitute a break-in, because there no sign of forced entry- I used to tell my groundfloor flatmates over and over...
Some insurance policies may be invalidated by the leaving of a key for ease of access.
Load More Replies...Creepy.... I hope that's the worst this neighbor will ever do, cause I wouldn't be surprise if someone breaking in like this and having no problem admitting it had other intrusive behavior....
If you're the kind of person who forgets your keys when you leave the house, get deadbolts that require a key on both sides and lock it the moment you get home. That way, you can't leave your house without the key.
Yes, we had those on our back door. We felt it was safer unless the burglar also had a key, or a master key, or whatever. Anyway, even if they broke a pane of glass, they couldn't open the door.
Load More Replies...This is not a neighbour from hell. It's a neighbour with a sense of humour and a love of cats.
I bet he could quit cold turkey if you gave him... cold turkey!
Load More Replies...Dear lord if that would only make them stop......dropping the cig butts....not cat smoking them.
Haha, it's so American (and some other countries too) to think that "I'm not home" automatically means "my car's not home".
Even if they weren't home but the car was, they likely had their keys with them, and most people keep house keys and car keys together. Wouldn't have been able to shut the alarm off anyway...
Load More Replies...To be fair "I'm not home" was a confusing answer. It could have meant, "I'm not home, so I can't stop my car alarm." But the neighbor's question was stupid as hell.
Another stupid neighbor. May I please have permission to strangle her?
I laughed so hard at this grey sounds just like one of my mates XD
Load More Replies...Blue sent this in because they think grey is rude? Imagine thinking you can dictate what necessary body functions people are allowed to do in their own home.
Dude, there's no way some of these are real. I don't have all my neighbor's phone numbers. Not unless you know them pretty well and ur friendly u know? Anyways, who the hell texts their neighbor to say "stop farting" or "you should break up with ur boyfriend ur a terrible couple". I call b******t sir.
If the walls are that thin, why did they have to text this conversation? :-)
I was asking the same thing from the first texts. :)
Load More Replies...I know my neighbor can hear me farting and I don’t give a f**k lol xD damn loud bastard he is
It does actually, Now have tacos and beans with a side of broccoli
People call the police over barbecuing in a public park where barbecuing is allowed, you think they won't call over a trash can?
Load More Replies..."Oh no, my trash is gone! The only logical explanation is that my neighbor stole it!"
Why, oh why, must people live such sad and lonely lives that they become obsessed with GARBAGE CANS!?
Not threaten but that person needs to put his trash somewhere and if he calls Waste mgmt they'll charge him for it.
Load More Replies...Most of us have seen, cans rolling down the road after a dandy storm !!!
Haha, threatened by what... Must pick my fights. :)
Load More Replies...I can sympathize with this one. Small talk can sometimes feel like torture, so I have resorted to hiding on the upper floor when someone was waiting by the elevator on the ground floor. No damage done to anyone, so why not?
Fine if you can be sure you were not seen - otherwise it just hurts the other person and they don't mean any real harm. It's hard for very sociable people to appreciate that some of us hate small talk. I'd worry much more about upsetting someone if they saw me hiding tbh.
Load More Replies...why... WHY was he/she standing and waiting outside for FEW minutes like a psychopath?
Social anxiety is awful! I really feel for this person. I have a friend who pretends she’s talking to someone on her cell so she doesn’t have to chat with anyone on her way to the car.
I feel that. I can make small talk no worries the first time I see someone, but consecutive encounters leave me hiding and freaking out
Load More Replies...I feel this. My mom and I are the same way. We can’t stand it when someone just wants to stand there and talk and talk and talk. Often times we hide from the people we see who do it. Lol especially then they see I have car keys in hand and I’m ready to get going somewhere. I try not to be rude but eventually I just start to slowly walk away and I have to interrupt them and tell them I’m in a hurry and have to go.
I feel so bad for this person. I used to be like this. It took years of therapy to get to the why & how I ended up that way & to discover the whI to bring me to where I am now.
I sympathize with the hider. I've been known to do an about face & hurry away if I glimpse someone I know when shopping.
I read an article in which a great number of people who are holding their phone to their head aren't on a call, they're doing it to avoid conversation -- particularly on public streets where they know they'll pass canvassers and panhandlers.
Simple solution, remove their rear license plate and replace it with a sign "I need to learn to park.". The police will surely be interested and draw his attention to this message.
Er... OP is the jerk here, not the person calling them on their parking 'skills'. Do they not realize they're the a**e??
Problem of this approach is that THEY know where you live, and you don't know where they'll be living.
But people have to prove residence to get a car towed. They could vandalize I guess. That is why I like simple security cameras hooked to my computer or phone.
Load More Replies...Just the simple fact that the guy that's moving out, thinks he can just detain people as he likes , puts me on the side of the guy whose car was blocked.
Me too. At least warn people so that they can move their car somewhere accessible first. Just a wee bit of consideration goes a long way.
Load More Replies...It's ALWAYS a good idea to give a "heads up" to your neighbor of a shared driveway before your move out day. Just saying...
Why not GO OVER IN PERSON and say, "I need to leave, would you please move your car?" -- Then remind them that when you return you'd like to park in your driveway. BEING A JERK IS NOT REQUIRED.
I'd take up smoking cigars & make certain Amy & Randy could see me smoking them...
I don't smoke, but I'd get a box of cheap smelly cigars and traipse around outside my house and walk down the block holding one in my fingers, and pretend that I did smoke. And, if I saw any of the neighborhood kiddos while I was out fake-smoking, I'd stop and talk to them. I talk to them about cigars.
Load More Replies...$10 says the same kids have seen Amy drink a glass of wine before noon on a weekday.
You mean, mummy's special "makes me tolerate your daddy more" juice? For sure.
Load More Replies..."It wasn't a cigar, it was a joint. Luckily they didn't notice the bottle of whisky I was drinking."
People like Amy are so strange to me. Are you so lazy to parent your kids that you can't take the time to explain to them certain habits are bad for you?
Ugh, the use of the word 'sweetie' makes me want that taquito to wash the taste from my mouth. Like I can just hear that fake nice voice tone when I read it. Yuck.
OCDR: using "sweetie" made me want to smash that taquito into Amy's face! Hahahahaha!
Load More Replies...And wave with it, yelling : "Hey SWEETIE!" I honestly HATE that word when used in passive aggressive tone. Ugh.
Load More Replies...Wait, the blue balloons show that "Chelsea" is the person who sent this in & "The monster" is the supposed Neighbour-from-Hell?! I'm confused.
I have a neighbour like that and in all honesty it's annoying as f**k. The whole floor can hear her yap about nonsense on the phone for hours and she makes no effort to keep her voice down, it's like she's yelling all the time. We all know that modern apartment buildings have paper-thin walls and most people make an effort to not bother their neighbours more than necessary.
Load More Replies...What all this means is that building standards are way too low. People aren't going to change, so wall thickness criteria will have to.
They are living in apartments that are to cheaply made. Time to move. You get what you paid for.
Load More Replies...What I really don't understand is why do all these people have each others numbers? They are clearly not friends
That's a text you do not answer. Then you walk around having fictitious phone conversations about Chelsea, the nosy idiot who lives next door.
I am so glad that the person I share an apartment wall with is my sister.
Ugh, not everyone likes to text and I am one of them. I prefer phone calls coz they are usually quicker when I need information or organise something.
I HATE phones. Texting must have been invented by introverts FOR introverts. I'm always paranoid that I'll call at an inconvenient time. But a few weeks ago, I decided to "woman up" and CALL my brother about a question about arranging for a tow truck. I was SO proud of myself. Until he picked up in a whisper because he was on the golf course and the ring had disturbed and annoyed his fellow golfers. So, dammit. I'll never make a phone call again!
Load More Replies...Wow I would of texted her back said f**k off and mind your own business
What I don't get is how all these neighbours who hate each other, have each others numbers.
Isn't that illegal to date your cousin? If not illegal it is pretty bloody gross.
Depends where you live. Some countries it's not only acceptable but it's encouraged - not saying it's a good idea personally but mores in countries vary. Charles Darwin was married to his first cousin. First cousins are more likely than unrelated parents to have a child with a serious birth defect but scientists say that their increased risk is nowhere near as large as most people think. I still wouldn't personally...
Load More Replies...In my country it's actually illegal to make noise loud enough to bother your neighbours before 8am on weekdays and 10am on weekends.
That wouldn't work in Texas, everybody would get heat exhaustion even if they stayed hydrated and whatnot
Load More Replies...Plants burning because they are watered in the sun is a myth. It's just not very economicall to do it because the water evaporates quicker so the soil doesn't get really wet. Best time to water the plants is during the night and don't use sprinklers but a dripping-method which is much more efficient. Your plants will love you for it.
Rats - now I've no excuse not to do it during the day instead of my husband doing it of an evening while I wave a white flag due to exhaustion! Grumble, whinge...
Load More Replies...I f*****g DESPISE people who make noise prior to 10am. F**K this b******t. I don’t care if YOU’RE up at 5am, 6am, 7am, etc. Not everyone wants to live by YOUR schedule. This goes for utility and borough work sites too. F*****g HATE living in an urban environment.
Idiot. honestly. And - the flowrs can be watered automatically or in the evening. And definitely not necessarily on Saturday
It's hard on people that work unusual schedules in hospital and Nursing Homes then have to try to sleep during the day when all chaos is breaking loose on a weekend. When I did I was so glad to have AC or Central Air so I could at least shut my windows. Although there were times when II would have liked to enjoy the spring or summer breeze.
My god! If you can hear someone fighting, then #1. Step in, intervene if someone is in trouble (which it sounds like the person was) #2 call 911/999 & report a domestic disturbance. And if all else fails, don't blame the victim, offer help. Ask of she feels safe or if she needs to get away, needs help making phone calls, ANYTHING but "tick tock. Happy fighting"
I suspect it was repeated but plain old boring rowing rather than domestic abuse. Domestic abuse would definitely warrant intervention but there are couples who think constant rowing is a normal part of a relationship
Load More Replies...Disturbing the peace is against the law, and so is domestic disturbance. Don't need to mention that domestic violence is as well.
Some people, would rather be, in a bad relationship, than be alone, so sad !!!
Cardinal sin admitting you hate HP in public! *whispers* You aren't alone! Though there seems to be hundreds of people on here who have a HP user name.
Load More Replies...ahahahaha...... I loved original old my little pony show when i was really little. My parents must switched the WHS for another movie and said this is the my little pony I just remember it wrong, just to end their missery of listening the same four episodes again and again and again... It worked that time :D
Ny daughter is currently obsessed with MLP. All through quarantine, MLP. Her profile name on Nexflix is Rainbow Dash. The most played songs on Amazon Music are by MLP and the Dazzlings. Thanks for the idea! 😉
Load More Replies...I don't know how people live like that with such thin walls. I couldn't do it.
It's a pain in the a**e. My neighbor is hard of hearing and never hears my TV or stereo, but I sure as hell hear hers.
Load More Replies...Seems like Chloe from 1A finally had enough. It's quite amazing how some people think that rules never apply to them, even when they are warned.
Had a similar problem with a neighbour over the road from me parking across my driveway. Even though we explained that I am disabled and need him to stop parking there he just laughed and carried on. One day I had enough and went out, opened his fuel cap and blatantly put a rag in his tank and whipped out a barbecue lighter. He raced out screaming "WHAT THE F**K ARE YOU DOING!?!?!" I said "Blowing your car up silly! It's going to be moved one way or the other and this way seems more fun" He has never parked there since.
Sounds like a HOA again. Every member gets a copy in some places for emergencies. Some people stretch definition of emergency.
Load More Replies...I've never been in this situation with someone whose cell phone number I had.
What I don't get about these situations is this: where I live, the person that calls the tow truck has to pay for the car to be moved from private property. It wouldn't be costing the owner of the car any money, it would just be an inconvenience.
As I understand in most states the owner of the car has to pay the towing company to get the car released. Could be that some owners that often have to deal with illegal parking, have a contract with some towing company.
Load More Replies...Feel for both. Children want to learn to play and that's perfectly reasonable. Torture to listen to though. Had a singing coach living nearby and OML it was hell for a while. Now I have a neighbour with a son who isn't very committed to learning to play the drums - so at least it isn't very often or for very long!
Man, what a miserable person lol I remember when we first moved here about 6 years ago, there was a kid just learning the flute and it was pretty bad, but listening to their progression over the years has been a cool experience
The original texter is very rude. I understand you don't want to hear the noise, but the kid is 9 years old.
And want to learn how to play the instrument.
Load More Replies...I know it can be torture listening to someone practicing an instrument when they’re first learning, but that’s a good reason to get some good noise-cancelling headphones or earplugs. Most kids only practice about half an hour a day several times a week. He will get better as time goes on.
Okay, neighbour is a d**k, but that reply at the end killed me. XD
Lol, I feel for both. Music is mandatory in school where I live, when the schools shut down they sent the kids home with their instruments. Lockdown afternoons in my apartment complex have sounded like a cacaphony of terrible musicians badly screeching through various instruments. My own son with his trumpet included. Sometimes there'd be 3-4 kids playing different songs badly on various instruments all at once. Thank God school is over this year.
By the time you're 27 you perhaps should give a f**k about children and their attempts to learn things. I don't even particularly like children, but I like rude, childish 27 year olds even less.
Buy your kid a Violin. 9 y/o's are terriffic at pissing the neighbours off even more with a Violin that a Clarinett.
My daughter tried playing saxophone for a school band when she was 9. She was very excited and practiced at home during the day, after school (not every day - just 2-3 days/week and for less than 30 min...) But we have a lot of retired neighbors who are always home, so they still complained of the noise, even though it was during the day, at 4 or 5 pm. And they filed a complaint with the building management and they asked me if the sound can be muffled or if she could practice at school instead, because the sound bothered people... She was very hurt. She's bipolar, so that triggered a depression episode and she never touched the saxophone again. Every time I think about it I cry - she was so excited to learn that instrument and so proud. All ruined by neighbors who did not even care to talk to me or ask or work on this together.
How in the world is the parent, standing up for their child being sexualized by some asshat who is commenting on a CHILD'S APPEARANCE the monster? Exactly? Please? FFS.
Load More Replies...For those of you who don’t know what “butterface” means: it’s a woman whose body is hot but whose face is not. And this creep said it TO A CHILD! 😡
Eaxctly. And the parent is the monster???? WTF?
Load More Replies...I agree that insulting a child is not the way to go but so many parents instantly get their hackles up if you approach them about a child's less than desirable behaviour (so I hear - not tried it personally!!). Teachers have that problem a lot - parents instantly get defensive even if their offspring is appallingly badly behaved. Some parents are going to be fine if there is a problem that needs sorting out but you don't know that in advance unfortunately.
Load More Replies...Anyone who insults a child's looks to their face is an a*****e. You have a problem, put on your big boy pants and say, "You should cover your nose when you sneeze so it doesn't get on other people."
He shouldn't have insulted the child, but she shouldn't be sneezing on people.
No one should ever say THAT to a child EVER! This was not some generic insult. He was saying this child has a hot body but her face is ugly.
Load More Replies...Adults need to act like adults. Parents have the duty to teach their children manners.
It’s a term first used by Howard Stern. “Her body is hot, but her face...”
Load More Replies...That was s****y to call her kid that but it was also super gross and nasty for the kid to sneeze all over someone. I have a kid and I don’t want my own kid sneezing their snot all over me. But don’t call the kid a mean name.
He could have called her kid out on it without using a term that sexualized her. If he had said “ the germ factory,” or “snot-nosed,” that might have been acceptable. He used a term that spoke to the kid’s sexual appeal to adults. Gross!

People thinking it's not that bad to drive while having had a drink? Massively dangerous, serious problem.
Load More Replies...Breaking in if you are not on the lease or mortgage is illegal. Don't know if s******g in someones bed is legal or not but it is absolutely disgusting.
Definitely illegal. It's toxic substance and maliciously exposing someone else to it is considered assault under the law.
Load More Replies...That's a scarily elaborate revenge plan. I'd try not to get in that dude's bad side.
Probably refers to himself as a “Nice Guy™“, and uses the terms “friendzone” and “involuntary celibacy”...
Load More Replies...You said "influenza" lol. Fits the group you are referring to perfectly.
Load More Replies...Anytime you have to begin a sentence with, “Not to be creepy,” you are being creepy.
Jeez, the person in grey was just trying to be nice, the person in blue could've responded more politely
Everyone who thinks it's appropriate to insult people like that, should take a long, hard look at themselves.
Mostly true but none of us know the history between those two people.
Load More Replies...Once when I was like 10 my class was doing was this trip thing in llangranog. One classmate was an absolute 4ssH0le and would have a shower at 3am daily and put sunscreen before bed so he didn't get 'sunburn' from the bed lights. He made the room dirty within 5 minutes. Luckily he was in the room opposite from us. One Extra Note: he tried to buy a condom during a toilet break on the bus.
Fat people: one of the last minorities it's considered OK to treat like $h!+. along with atheists, smokers, women who don't want kids and people who aren't good looking.
Yeah...that s**t is bad. You're not with Mommy and Daddy now and NOBODY CARES THAT YOU ARE DOING S**T.
What reason could they be honking their horn for when they don't live at home anymore?
I feel for both on this one.. I just took down a tree but I will be replacing it with an avocado one when the root naturally decompose
Just because someone cuts down a tree, doesn't mean they hate nature, it might have many other reasons, and also it might not have been an easy decision.
I had a beautiful oak with a protection order on it but sadly it died. I had to get it taken down as it became dangerous as it was rotting really fast. ☹
Load More Replies...In the Netherlands it's actually illegal to cut down trees without a permit (exceptions aside). Nature is deemed more valuable than the owner's rights. Trees live longer than people: we need to protect them for prosperity.
I agree with grey bubbles person. My chain-smoking, beer-guzzling, littering neighbor seems to hate trees too. He cut down the beautiful cherry trees in his front and back yards. The stumps were such an improvement... People are f*****g weird about trees. I f*****g hate urban life.
Cutting down trees: lowers the price on your home, increases your cooling costs and looks like you want to live in a junk yard.
Tree roots can destroy the foundations of a building if the tree is too close. Another reason he/she could be chopping them down is if they're planning something different for their garden (landscaping, different trees etc).
Load More Replies...We need to reinforce confidence in kids now so they will become confident and independent adults. hat is the whole point.
I hate libertarians like this. They make the party look like a sociopathic cult by acting like this f*****g arrogant f**k. I already find their theories of economics to be impractical and not based on real world human behavior, but their social ideologies are abysmal.

I think building management or architect is the one you'd like to scream at...
Why? It was built 50 years ago, a time when people were much more respectful of each other.
Load More Replies...Shared surfaces as dwellings is an inherently and fundamentally antisocial and toxic culture. It’s all about making as much money as possible, as cheaply as possible, with zero care as to the practicalities of putting people that close together, sharing surfaces. It’s f*****g s**t. It creates unnecessary hostility.
Okay, I see a pattern. Single people, just say something snarky and walk off. That's how married people do.
Extreme frustration often leads to people being less than polite.
Load More Replies...That's a really s****y thing to say. What do you get out of stomping on someone else's feelings
On the surface, yes. But in the future it could be helpful if he/she is tempted to return to a toxic relationship.
Load More Replies...I think she got the wrong pet then, she should have got a dog.

Load More Replies...I think this person (not assuming it's a she) may need professional therapy.
I doubt they're qualified to give their neighbor the type of help they need.
That’s a really good neighbor to reach out and see if she’s ok though.
That is absolutely THE BEST way I've ever heard someone say "mind your business"
Birthday months mean you have lots of friends who all have different schedules! :)
Why do they always ask whose car/truck/whatever it is then? Why should they know if you don' know it either?
Realistically they are likely in a hurry to get somewhere (like an appointment) & slightly panicked that they're going to be late. Stress can easily bring on minor episodes of stupidity.
Load More Replies...If someone interrupts me while I am trying to eat a sandwich and I would annoyed too.
I had a house mate whose girl screamed during sex. You could hear her in the pub at the end of the street if the window was open
this person is probably jealous that someone else is enjoying her sex life :P
I love dogs, don't get me wrong, but some dogs have issues like barking non-stop. And to be honest, that will get on anyone's nerves. Maybe that was the case here, maybe not.
The dogs that bark non-stop for long periods of time usually only have issues because they are being left on their own. They are most likely sad and lonely. Very annoying to listen to though, totally agree. When my dogs start barking it's when they are in the garden and hear an unusual noise but I stop them or bring them in (they can't be heard inside as I don't live in an apartment and it's a well insulated property). If the owner doesn't care about the neighbour's feelings they should at least consider their dog.
Load More Replies...I had to do this one time. I love animals and dogs especially. For me it was more of a wellness check for the dog. the barking started at 9:30 in the morning and was still going 9:30 at night. I went over to the dog and made sure he had food and water, beautiful husky. Wasn't barking more like crying and weeping, I could not take it anymore. Just wanted the dog to go inside, and be a part of his family... Makes me so sad.
Cops don't respond to dogs barking... At least where i live and the animal control is a joke. You can ha e video of the bad mannered neighbors dog but they still want 3 sworn affidavits from 3 neighbors to deal with constant dog barking :( seriously mr sie in a fire is the awful person here. Horrible death for wanting quiet.
Why is blue the A-hole? He just wants to know who's texting, doesn't get an answer but turns his music down anyway and therefore finds grey annoying. I don't see a single A-hole here...
Yeah. I'm a baby hater. I have no strong feelings about wind chimes, but now they remind me of babies and dickish responses. S**t I hate wind chimes now.
Wind chimes are beautiful....the first ten minutes. Then they drive everyone nuts.
Some windchimes can be annoying (a bit like myself lol) but I wouldn't ask anyone to stop hanging them or anything.
You’re only mildly annoying, unlike wind chimes (jk you’re awesome)
Load More Replies...Wind chimes don't belong just anywhere, like in a breezeway of a 3 story apt in a windy city.
I was on the second person's side all the way up to the last two words. I like wind chimes. I don't like baby screaming. how can anyone compare the two noises?
Actually we have noise Laws where I live and a dog barking all the time violates that
I read that "its a trap" like it was that star wars commander guy that looked like a fish XD
Load More Replies...Yesterday-me is dead, today-me has killed her. That should be obvious.
I dont understand why Blue would put this convo on the internet while they are the ones being rude. Do they think its cool and edgy to insult others and want to brag about it?
Blue tried to be nice. The grey sad he is an a-holle. She asked for it.
Load More Replies...Even if a woman is actively giving birth, I will NEVER ask if she is pregnant.
Boyfriend made an honest mistake, apologies were made(indirectly..), but hey should have accepted without further confrontation.
that's...a big red warning sign right there. blue should be a bit more careful
How bloody rude, someone was trying to be kind and gets that response. No wonder more and more people are ignoring others in trouble or distress when things like this happen. How about just a "No thank you, I would like to be left alone".
There's no helping some people. I understand they're hurting but lashing out is uncalled for.
All grey had to say was " Thanks for your concern, but I want to cry alone."
Grey seems like a jerk but maybe they were just on edge seeing as something happened(they were crying) 🤷
No blue YOU are a terrible person for not respecting someone else's property and then feeling the need to lash out at your neighbor. Blue could have just said: sorry, im on my way home and ill get them out.
Seems to me that grey is actually very kind by warning the owner about his dogs. She or he could have called the pound right away.
Blue is the problem neighbor in this situation. Who tells someone that no one likes them?
Yeah that's really heartless. Greg can do better
Load More Replies...Next time use a flip chart, it looks more authorative & professional.
Needs a little context. Is he coming around at all hours and peeking in the windows like a creeper? Or is he just a hapless schlub and they're being cruel?
Sheesh, didn't realized I had to aspire to be interesting. There goes the rest of the month.
So having sex with someone entitles them to call on you for help for the rest of your life?
Once the ladder is there, what's the chance next item is "get a lightbulb"?
That’s some really super casual f*****g if blue is this dismissive. I think blue is kind of an a*s here. If you’re going to have sex with someone, maybe act like a decent person to them later? Or, if blue thinks grey is a nag, maybe just not have sex with them until getting to know them a bit first to make sure blue’s not getting into something irritating.
This is why ladies we don't give our cudycat to just anyone
So your saying they had pity sex with you just because they were "nice".
Cop seems to be breaking the law (but then again, that's their thing as they've been demonstrating lately), so calling the cops on the cop is the way forward.
I don't think it's illegal for the policeman to accept the offer of a date. As long as he also did his job & quietened/shut down the party I don't see the issue.

Another poor dog. People - don't have dogs and leave them all day. They like company.
Sorry, but there is NO sympathy with people who threaten to poison a dog. My friend lost her dog to someone laying out poisoned bait and it's not pretty and it's not funny and it should never be a threat, even if in jest. I know how bad barking dogs can be, so I had sympathy. It evaporated when the poison came up.
Whoever wrote this,should be given a hamburger with poison! You could maybe first talk to the neighbour,try to figure a solution,then maybe authorities, but DON'T you dare kill an innocent animal,because you are annoyed!
The letter writer should just call animal control. I may be wrong but I think the "poison" threat was not real but just to get the dog owner's attention.
Call animal control, this is abuse mentally of the dog, they can take it.
Serious question:Its an American thing to have your neighbour's phone number? I don't even know all my neighbours...
