Spine-Chilling Neighbor Encounters

Not My Lawn, Not My Problem

My parents’ neighbor owns a landscaping company, so he has a dump truck. His house is set further back from the road than theirs, so his driveway, which is right on the property line, extends past their house and next to their backyard.

One time, my dad noticed the neighbor turning the dump truck around in my parents’ backyard when the ground was very soft from some recent rain. He went back, and sure enough, there were giant ruts in my parents’ yard.

When my dad confronted the neighbor about using their backyard to turn around, the neighbor’s response floored him: “I’m sorry, but if I turned it around in my yard, it would have left ruts in my lawn.”

So he knew it would leave ruts, then decided he didn’t want them in his yard, so he left them in my parents’ yard instead. Story credit: Reddit / (livecaterpillarflesh)
