Get ready to hear about the couple who turned a wild backyard jungle into a neighbor dispute in a DIY fence showdown. So here’s the lowdown on this juicy tale of malicious compliance: a couple buys a swanky new house in an old neighborhood and thinks, “Cool, let’s fix up this wild jungle of a backyard!” They start clearing and realize they’ve got way more yard space than they thought – score. But their right-hand neighbor suddenly turns into Bob the Builder and slaps down a makeshift fence made of tree branches. “Okay, weird flex but okay,” they think.
Spring rolls around, and guess what? Their crafty neighbor is at it again, putting rocks and sticks all over their yard like some DIY board game. The couple, not ones to back down from a challenge, whip out their property survey. It turns out they were right. Mr. Crafty Neighbor though isn’t convinced, leading to another survey and a $900 bill on his end.
The cherry on top? OP not only gets their rightful yard space via malicious compliance but also makes a neat little profit. Scroll down for a neighbor dispute that’s equal parts hilarious and triumphant.
