'The apple doesn't fall from the tree' does not only apply to family situations but also to friends. People say that if you look at a person's friends, you'll know who they are, but that isn't always the case. See, even when you are lucky enough to land a house with good neighbors, their guests aren't always so polite. In this case, u/cycloscott dealt with the usual, run-of-the-mill Karen, after finding his entire driveway blocked thanks to her and her husband parking their car on it. OP approached him, asserting himself. At first, he was polite, even though they were clearly, and I mean clearly, in the wrong.
Even though I can't relate to OP in terms of owning my own driveway, I totally get rude, entitled Karens making your life unduly difficult. If I were in his place, it would have been hard to keep my cool. Their car was basically sprawled across his entire front lawn. Call this Karen sensitive if you will, but her response to OP's polite and fair request was less than satisfactory. People really don't know how to take criticism nowadays. To see how she responded, and what happened next, you are going to have to scroll down a bit. Enjoy your scrolling, and next, check out this retired engineer who used his skills to get even with his neighbors.
