I had a neighbour that would park in the street in the winter, directly across from my driveway. In the winter, this would block the snow plow, and to avoid damaging his car, all the snow would be piled in front of my driveway.

The city is suppose to ticket and tow, but they don’t actually enforce that law. So one night I was shovelling out my driveway, and boy was I angry. After I cleared my driveway, I proceeded to clear the other half of the street with my shovel, piling all the snow to block in his vehicle.

It was a master piece. I carefully piled the snow not to actually pile the snow, but there was a mountain of snow about 8 feet tall, he would have to clear just to get to his car. Then he would learn I had also packed his tires with snow, so he would have spend an extra hour clearing to get the car out.

I was feeling rather proud of myself, and imagining his flustration when he went to try and leave for work. He would probably miss work all together. Further, since he was in a feud with my neighbour across the street who felt he owned the spot, I wouldn’t even be a suspect for his revenge.

Yep. Of course by then all my anger was gone so I spent the rest of the night clearing that snow away. So presumably when he got up in the morning is all he would see is someone had cleared out the snow around his vehicle. That ended his feud with my other neighbour, as he assumed they did that as good will gesture. And one good turn brings another. So eventually he stopped parking there in the winter and went back to parking in his empty driveway, and everyone was happy.
