MY NEIGHBOR THREW EGGS AT MY CAR BECAUSE IT “BLOCKED THE VIEW” OF HIS HALLOWEEN DECORATIONS.
So, last Halloween, I walked outside to find my car covered in eggs. I thought it was a prank at first, but then I noticed the egg splatters reached my neighbor Brad’s sidewalk. Suspicious, I confronted him.
I smiled to myself and tucked the note away. Brad never egged my car again, and we maintained a polite, if distant, relationship after that. Sometimes, he would wave when he saw me, and I’d wave back, but I knew he had learned his lesson. And every Halloween since, I’ve set up my display and parked my car right where it needs to be, just as a little reminder.
Sometimes, karma doesn’t need to be loud or aggressive. It just needs to be smart, and a little bit strategic.
