Taking to Reddit, user SpookyGirl0123 explained what happened a “few years ago” and how she got revenge on the “entitled parents”.
She said: “I lived in a house that was a block away from a public park. It was a very large park, and I noticed two soccer games occurring when I left one Saturday to go to the grocery store.
“When I returned home about 45 minutes later, I noticed there was a truck parked beside my property. The occupants of that truck were on my property. There were two children dressed in soccer uniforms, their mom and dad, and a large Doberman.
“The Doberman was lying on a picnic blanket, the parents were setting up their family’s picnic lunch, and the children were chasing each other – all on my front lawn! I couldn’t believe my eyes.”
The woman parked her car and “walked over to the family asking them why were they on my property”.
The mother, whom the homeowner described as “entitled”, responded: “‘What does it look like? We are eating lunch.’ I asked why are they not eating in the public park that is a block away, and she responded ‘It’s more peaceful here.’
“In complete shock I then said, ‘This is private property, and you all need to leave now.’ The mother’s response was “Go f*** yourself you little b****.”
The homeowner was understandably “furious” and decided to get “the easiest revenge”.
She revealed: “I walked right beside them to the outside tap that was attached to my sprinkler system, and turned it on. The family started screaming and grabbed all their stuff as they ran to their truck.
“The mother and father screamed obscenities the whole time, and said that they were going to ‘get me’. Well, this is where revenge number two came in. I downloaded my security camera footage which showed their licence plate, and brought it to my next door neighbour who just happened to be a police officer who working that day.
The parents were charged with trespassing, and I had a smile on my face for the rest of the day.”
The post received several comments, one of which read: “These people are nasty and entitled. I would have done exactly the same. Karma is a b****. One can only hope they’ll think twice before they pull this stunt again in the future. Without consequences… they’d have probably done it over and over to whoever would tolerate it.”
A second said: “I love your instant karma revenge. Fk entitled trespassing a-holes.”
Another commented: “I have fantasies about installing a motion activated sprinkler system on my front lawn for the assholes who walk onto my property to steal my plants and walk their dogs.”
