A man who has been repeatedly blocked in his driveway by his neighbour decided to take sweet revenge – and he accidentally ruined the neighbour’s date in the process
A man has been hailed for his sweet revenge on a neighbour who repeatedly blocked his driveway “one too many times”. He painted a picture of his neighbour as an “arrogant six-foot something hulk” in his mid-20s who thinks rules don’t apply to him.
He claims the neighbour persistently parks his motor in front of his driveway, leaving scant room for him to get in or out at will, despite numerous warnings, notes and face-to-face ‘mate, seriously, stop’ chats. His excuse? ‘I’m just here for a bit.’ A bit apparently translates to an eternity… 3 to 5 hours every blooming time.
“Last week, I come home and surprise. He’s there again. Blocking my driveway with his shabby silver Sedan. I see him through his window getting ready, cologne and all. He’s going out. I decide, tonight’s the night.”
In a bid for revenge, he says he did “something he should have done weeks ago” and rang a tow truck to haul away the vehicle. His revenge turned out even sweeter than anticipated. He added: “No warnings or, notes. Got it towed straight up.
“About 45 minutes later, I’m sitting on my porch enjoying a beer when a random lass walks up the pavement. Clearly dressed for a date.
“She knocks on his door, he comes out grinning, then clocks his car is gone. She’s puzzled. He’s losing it. He starts looking around like someone’s nicked his stuff.

“I casually say, ‘If you’re looking for your car, it got towed. You were blocking my driveway. Again.'”.
“He tries to argue but the girl just says, ‘Wait, you parked in front of his driveway?’ He tries to explain, but she just says, ‘Wow. That’s trash,’ and walks off.
“I haven’t seen him block my driveway since, and he never called another girl home after that. His confidence took a major hit.”
In the comments of his post, reactions were mixed with one user chipping in: “He blocked you, you blocked him. Fair is fair.”
While others rallied in support, another chimed in: “You saved her so much time realising he’s a piece of garbage.”
A third commenter highlights the influencing power of disappointment, stating: “Nothing like a woman’s disgust to change a small minded person’s behaviour.”
Another tale of driveway war emerged, with an added twist: “This is the way. I had a neighbour jerk as well. They had a large garage sale and a random dude decided he would park in my driveway instead parking down the street.”
The story continues with a direct confrontation: “I come rolling into my driveway, so I block his car. I go inside. Random dude knocks on my door 25 min later asking me to move my cat so he can leave.”
The payback was sweet: “I told him he would now have to wait 45 minutes to leave (about how long he parked in my driveway) as I was busy right now. He got all annoyed and yes, I did make him wait the full 45 minutes.”
