Woman Gets Petty Revenge On Trashy Neighbors By Making Sure No One Picks Up Their Smelly And Very Full Trash Cans
One woman recently found herself in a tricky situation with her neighbors, as there were nine people living in a five-bedroom house next to her. Their overflowing trash cans were attracting raccoons and foxes, which eventually started getting into the garbage and leaving a mess all over the place.
However, one of the neighbors still had the audacity to yell at the woman for putting out her own trash too late, even though it didn’t seem to cause any inconvenience for anyone else. He went as far as moving her trash cans to the side of her house so they wouldn’t get picked up.
In response, the woman decided to teach him a lesson and plotted a clever and satisfying retaliation, which she then shared in a post on r/pettyrevenge.

According to research by Find Law, a popular legal information website, 42% of Americans say they have had a dispute with their neighbors.
But at least they’re still a minority; the survey found that the remaining respondents – 58 percent – say that they have never had a dispute with a neighbor. Here are the top issues and their prevalence:
- Noise 48%;
- Pets and animals 29%;
- Children’s behavior 21%;
- Visual nuisance, property appearance, trash, etc. 18%;
- Property boundaries 17%;
- Suspected criminal behavior 8%;
- Health or building code violations 4%;
- Parking 1%.
Starting off on the wrong foot might be one of the reasons why among Americans who know at least some of their neighbors, only one in four say they have face-to-face conversations with them at least several times a week. (An additional 24% say they have these conversations about once a week, 21% say about once a month and 25% say less often than that.)
The author of the post said they made sure there were no loose ends
And people applauded their effort
Some even shared their own “garbage wars”
What do you think ?

Do the trash cans have timers on them? HTF would the trash company know WHEN they put it out? Neighbours are d***s and glad y'all are moving away from those toxic asshats.

Yeah this is really dumb. Why would anyone care if they put them out later if the trash company hadn't come yet. If anything, it's better for the community the less time the trash is sitting out. It's less likely to smell or allow animals to get into it. The reason for having them out before 7am is usually because they might come early and to make sure they don't miss the pickup.

You weren't terribly obnoxious until that last question.
