50 Times People Posted Such Ridiculous Things On “NextDoor” They Deserved To Be Shamed (New Pics)
Nextdoor is an app that allows people to communicate with their neighbors. It's basically Facebook, but for neighborhoods. The company reports that 41.8 million people used their services as of 2023. So, as with any social networking app, all kinds of ridiculousness and mishaps abound.
Luckily, there's a community that collects the wildest things people post on Nextdoor. Petty neighborhood drama is what people on the subreddit live for. "Join us for the dumpster fire!" their description reads. So, Pandas, strap in and get ready for outrageous lawn debates, passive-aggressive pet complaints, and the occasional wholesome post!

How Long Til I Get Banned. Place Your Bets

This post told no lies. The amount of rudeness servers face is ridiculous. A server is not a slave or miracle worker.
The Nextdoor subreddit has been going strong for almost 10 years. Created in 2015, the group can't boast astronomical numbers, but its 35k hardcore members are definitely passionate and constantly hungry for some neighborhood drama.
The group is not about your run-of-the-mill Nextdoor posts pertaining to real neighborhood issues. They have an immediate disclaimer: "If it's not absurd or hilariously petty, move it to the real Nextdoor." On the subreddit, it's all about watching the dumpster fire at your neighbor's from afar!

I Found This To Be Awfully Sweet. I Hope She Finds What She’s Looking For
Huddo's sister 4 months ago
It is really important for older people to have social connections and this is sweet. There is an amazing Australian show called Old People's Home For 4 year olds where they pair older people with 4 year olds and they do activities with them to help with depression, loneliness and mobility. They do testing before and after to see what improvement they have made. There is also an Old People's Home For Teenagers.
The real Nextdoor, on the other hand, dates back to 2011. Its mission was to provide a sense of community and safety to neighborhoods. And in that regard, it mostly succeeds. It can be a great place to sell a couch or find a plumber to fix a leak (although competitors like Facebook's Neighborhoods might steal the spotlight sometimes).
However, the private social network hasn't been without controversies since its inception, especially in the last few years. Some suggest that people's fixations on crime can unnecessarily create a sense of paranoia in communities. Most of the post on Nextdoor are related to crime, yet suburban crime rates in some states (Michigan, for example) are going down.

Be On The Lookout For An Ugly Perp That Is Suddenly Gorgeous!
A 2023 study found that people inaccurately perceive the crime in their neighborhoods due to apps like Nextdoor. The researchers explain that this happens because people make judgements with the information available to them. And, on apps like these, the same rule as in traditional media applies: violent crimes gets a disproportionately bigger amount of coverage.

Greatest Exchange I’ve Ever Seen On Nextdoor
It's usually said that you can't choose family, but the same sometimes goes for neighbors as well. You can't always choose who you live next to, so your best bet is to make do with what you have. Interestingly, relationships with neighbors can be important to our social and mental well-being. For example, one study found that low contact with neighbors results in worse psychological well-being for adults aged 40-70.

The most frequent disagreements neighbors have are about yards and their home exteriors. Some also get into arguments about each other's political and sports affiliations and signs that they choose to put outside of their home. And only 28% said they got in trouble with a neighbor because of something they posted on social media.

Researchers also claim that relationships with neighbors are important for our overall health. They provide us with social support, allow us to share resources, and makes us feel secure. Some even posit that a good neighborly relationship is especially beneficial for single people. It provides them with greater satisfaction they derive from their social circles than couples do.

I'm wondering what "left hand hanging out the driver side window" would signal in the UK or OZ? (Yes, I deliberately wrote "left".)

In other news, air conditioning cures gayness! When I was a boy in California in the 60s, cars didn't have AC and you'd see men hanging their arms out the window all the time. Sometimes women as well. The brazen hussies! But now that it is very common for cars to have AC, you see a lot less heathen arm dangling because AC has cured most of the gayness! /J (I want to believe OP was a troll and not really that stupid)

I once worked with a Colombian engineer he said a tanned left arm was the sign of a truck driver. This was in the late 1960s (I'm old). He also said that they wore their watches on the right wrist because a thief with a straight razor would come up and slash the leather strap before you could say "Cabron"

I've never heard of this ever. Same w/ the pineapple symbol on a house meaning they are swingers. Tons of old homes where I live have carved pineapples on them, mine included. It's a symbol of friendship and hospitality.

How will a driver know whether a man is receptive? I’m now imagining low-IQ men panicking about driving while their arm is out. Poor guys.

People Shouldn't Mow The Lawn At 10. Am
Glen Ellyn 4 months ago
Um, what do your city ordinances say? You probably ought to check before you complain. Besides, how is the lawn service supposed to know you tied one on last night and now your head is about to fall off? 🤭
But arguments with neighbors are inevitable. So, what should one do when the time to confront them over loud noises past 10 pm comes or those pesky Christmas lights in April start bugging you? Etiquette expert Diane Gottsman says to not approach it with an apology. "'I'm so sorry, I hate to say this to you.' This loses the power," she told CBS.

Not Sure If It’s A Joke Or For Real
Gottsman also advises to choose your battles wisely. "They should be worthy, and then you should come to the table, addressing them with some dignity," she recommended. You'll neven know the outcome of a confrontation such as this, so always keep in mind that it might make things worse in the long run.

I love Next Door. I never interact, just lurk to read all about the random fox sightings, disrespectful teens, attempted car break-ins, and stolen packages... which inevitably devolves into a non-sequitur and completely off-the-rails political fight in the comment section. 10/10 highly recommend.
