I used to have an elderly lady in my neighborhood who hated that the next house over had a tree which dropped seed shells onto her property. They were sharing an area where the street curved and therefore the boundary lines didn’t form squares, which convinced her that the tree was “really” on her side. She pretty much kept asking people who visited her if they could cut the tree — which was very obviously on the other side of a line of bushes — down until she found someone dumb enough to do so. That was bad enough but, unfortunately, the neighbor it actually belonged to had dementia and had to be looked over pretty much 24/7; the disappearance of the tree upset her badly, so her family sued the neighbor who it cut down. Between this and her own feebleness, she checked into an assisted living place much not longer afterward.
Just keep asking, Karen. Eventually you’ll run out of people who tell you “no.”

Now, THAT’S a neighbour from HELL!
