From Annoying to Downright Horrible: 19 Neighbor Fails

You never quite know what you’re going to get when it comes to the mixed bag of neighbor fails. Some neighbors seem like they emerge from the underworld itself to unleash peace-destroying havoc upon all the furthest reaches of your life. If you actually live next to/above/below a great neighbor, count your lucky stars. Every night. People are wild, and having to live next to someone who is unhinged can quickly impact your ability to find anything close to inner peace.
