The Most Outrageous Karens Seen In The Wild

"Ok buckle up. I have a neighbor who owns the place behind mine on a private drive. A couple of months ago she threw a Halloween party and had family members driving off-road vehicles all night in circles for a haunted trail.

Part of it came onto my property near my house and was keeping me awake. So I walked out in my pajama pants and kindly asked the guy driving to stay on their side of the line. He stopped, it was all good. I thought.

A few weeks later I got a package accidentally delivered to my house meant for the neighbor. It was one of those soft Amazon packages, definitely nothing breakable, like slippers or maybe a coat. So I went to that neighbor's house and tossed it towards her door.

Apparently, after this, she called my work, demanded to talk to my boss, and demanded I be reprimanded. She said I confronted her cousin and yelled at him to stop riding his ORV, and I callously threw her package at her house. Clear exaggerations of what happened. My boss explained that my work has nothing to do with a dispute between neighbors, she still wanted him to “talk” to me about it.

My boss called me into his office and told me what happened. It was so embarrassing. Plus I work for a notable firm in the area that doesn’t appreciate negative PR. I decided not to make things worse and didn’t confront her. It was so frustrating seeing her smugly drive by every day.

Fast forward 4 months to today. I got home from work to find packages on my deck. I brought them inside and discovered one addressed to the neighbor. Yay. I decided to go for my evening walk as planned and figured I’d try to be the bigger man and return the package when I got back.

The temptation to be petty was immense admittedly.

When I came back from my walk I found the neighbor and her older daughter on my deck. She asked me if I had a package. I went inside and grabbed it and handed it to her.

I told her I did not appreciate what she did by calling my boss and lying about the details. Well, that went about as well as you’d think. She accused me of stealing her package and told me it’s a federal offense to mess with her mail! I told her I had planned to give her the package but she was stuck on how it was inside my house. She asked me if I planned on throwing it like I did the last one. I told her if anything was broken I’d gladly pay for it. Then she said it… she asked if I wanted her to call my boss again. My heart sank and I told her to do whatever she wanted. She started to waddle away and I started going back into my house.

Then I heard her yelling at me again.

She turned around and started screaming about how I had taken her mail. I turned away from my door and told her to leave and that she was trespassing. She wouldn’t leave! I told her at least 10 times to just go. She kept yelling about calling my boss and telling me she had cameras. Well so do I. I pointed at them and she finally left.

And then the cops showed up. She is the main reason I put up cameras because of other stunts she’s pulled and thank God I got them. I showed the fuzz the footage and they laughed. I guess she reported that I stole her package and threatened her.

I showed the cops the video of the UPS guy dropping off the package, me bringing the package inside without looking at it. Now she’s been officially trespassed and can’t come onto my property anymore.

But wait, there’s more. She called my boss and told him the same lies she told the cops.

I sent him the video and he said he understands. Still a garbage situation to deal with. How do you all deal with neighbors from heck?

UPDATE

Met with attorney. Going to let things marinate for a bit. Yesterday was the only in-person negative interaction we’ve had and I’m still putting together the other stuff she has done before (social media posts etc.)

Also found out this woman had a kid with a married man expecting to ensnare him into a relationship. He decided he’d rather stay with his wife. A few years later she doubled down, tried AGAIN, and had another kid with the same guy.

He still stayed with the wife. So now she lives off a dead-end job and child support."
