Neighbour revenge (light hearted)

74 replies

Timeforkarma · 16/01/2024 17:16

My NDN has made our lives hell since we moved in 3 Years ago. We haven’t settled here and we made the decision to move again as it damaged my mental health.
We now have a lovely house lined up with lovely neighbours to match. We move in the coming weeks and I can’t wait.
So now, I need to find some revenge for NDN for our last day here. Obviously I don’t want to break the law, so any fun suggestions to annoy them and to go out with a bang would be appreciated 😁.
Id send a glitter bomb but the neighbours aren’t worth the money! And walking away without revenge isn’t an option, I’m a woman on a mission 🤣

As a previous poster suggested ( about buying one of those sound dodahs that go in cards) could you buy a few and manage to chuck some on the roof and guttering of the neighbours house.

Loving all the suggestions, having great fun imagining the stress it would leave behind. Their garden is very small only about 20 foot by 10 foot so would they notice handfuls of salt appearing over the lawn if I begin now? 😆

We lived next door to a massive fish pond [ never had fish in it, ever] no plants just clear water, but knobend neighbour had a really loud waterfall going all year round, we had asked him to turn it down a bit, but being a Billy Big Bollocks... You have to ask yourself, WHY??
On the day we moved and were just leaving, I leant over the fence and managed to accidently drop a whole bottle of washing up liquid into it then legged it!

BloodandGlitter you are my hero 🤣

well they have been a noise disturbance from day one - banging on our walls overnight being the main culprit, and all because she hates children. It’s a 4 bed semi who does she expect to live along here! I’ve had dog poo at my windows, nails and glass on my path way, rat poison sprinkled on the grass where my kids play. The list goes on and on. I’ve reported them numerous times but no one was interested as I could never get enough evidence. So now it’s time for me to have one last ‘fuck you’. Some great suggestions.
How would I go about disguising fish somewhere to rot? 😂 She has a ring door bell so I have to be careful.

wtf is wrong with people? Good luck on the revenge OP and hope you have good neighbours in your new home.

Love the catnip idea, but would the neighbours hurt the cats? I'd steer clear of permanent changes like the salt as it's not fair to people who move in there down the line. Such a shame about the ring doorbell - so many possibilities.

The poster with the scrappage connections - that idea was brilliant!

I agree with bird / flower seed . You don't want ti do something that could land you in hot water at any point.

My plan for my NFH is to pee in a plastic tub, Freeze it then post it through their letterbox at 1am. By morning it will have melted and absorbed into the carpet and they'll have no idea why their living room stinks of piss.

I expect you've already thought it out thorougly, but just in case I'd suggest checking for a ring doorbell/camera first. And you'll get a better effect if you don't drink much water for a few hours before hand and get nicely concentrated pee. Good luck 😂

Draw a phallus on their lawn with weedkiller...

Madly brilliant.

S'mash (powered potato stuff) on their path... looks like powder until it rains.

@Timeforkarma salt does not work that well! i tried it on my neighbours garden!

My teen DS has had a very large cock drawn on his bedroom window facing our racially abusive neighbours for months...

Teenagers.. what can you do..

DogLover24 · 17/01/2024 12:52

"I know a song that will get on your nerves" 🎶, left playing on repeat on a plugged in cd/tape player right next to the wall adjacent to their bedroom or living room Doesn't need to be exceptionally loud, just loud enough to drive them round the bend.

Many years ago our retired neighbours put up a six foot fence when I became pregnant with my first child. We sold the house to a family of six (four children under 12) when my son was two years old and left with a smile.

What’s wrong with putting up a fence?

Eh?

You do realise the fence may have had absolutely nothing to do with your pregnancy?

Unless there's more info you havent told us, this is a weird assumption to make.

Oh I wish I could put sausages in her lawn 😂.
does anyone know a decent website to send out leaflets and freebies? The more embarrassing the better 😁

There are websites where you can order animal shit to be packaged and posted to someone. They might like a dollop of horse/donkey/cow/pig shit ?

LenaLamont · 17/01/2024 16:52

Sign them up for every single mail order catalogue you can think of. Drown them in junkmail.

(My MIL 'helpfully' signs me up for things she 'thinks will be of interest' and I can attest to how bloody annoying it is!)

Or some of those damned MLM businesses as a potential sign-up? Ann Summers? Bettaware?

@Timeforkarma

Cotton Traders - they are still sending my Dad catalogues 8 months after he died and I keep telling them to stop, I return every single one they send,, they are relentless.

Chums is another one that would probably be very annoying

@vidflex

So our revenge . Two scrap cars with tyres removed,one on their drive, the other blocking it in were delivered to their home the day after we left. Then another two delivered three months later when they finally got those removed.

Excellent. Shame you had to live anywhere near such utterly vile people though. 🌹

CatOnTheLap · 17/01/2024 20:15

@vidflex you legend. I salute your genius.

I told DH about this thread and he would like to make a suggestion: If you're going to hide something in the shared wall/chimney...make it a battery operated smoke alarm. Put a new battery in it so it'll be months or years before it starts chirping.
The furby is funnier...but the delayed effect of the smoke alarm adds a new dimension. Talk about a dish served cold! 😂

This is an excellent idea. I once had to drown a fire alarm which had expired but refused to properly die - it took a little while before it finally gave up the ghost. 🌹
