How far would you go to get back at a neighbor from hell? I found out the hard way, and the neighborhood’s still buzzing about it. When my nightmare of a neighbor turned my backyard into a landfill, he had no idea what was coming.

It all started with a simple brick wall fence. In my neighborhood, that fence might as well have been the Great Wall of China. My neighbor Dan and I were like cat and mouse, always butting heads over something. This fence took things to a whole new level.

One afternoon, I was admiring my handiwork when Dan yelled over, “Hey, Jimmy! What’s the big idea with this monstrosity?” I retorted, “It’s called privacy, Dan. You should try it sometime.”

Weeks later, I woke to a foul stench. My backyard was a sea of garbage. Dan stood on his porch, grinning. “Like your new landscaping?” he taunted.

Fueled by rage, I called in a favor from a friend with an excavator. We moved the trash right back to Dan’s pristine lawn.

Dan’s reaction? Priceless. He screamed, “JIMMY!” but my new security cameras caught everything. Since that day, he’s never dared to mess with me again.
