I don’t know if you meant for it to come off this way or not, but to me it reads like you’re saying people who own homes shouldn’t complain about small things. Someone else always has it worse. That doesn’t mean those who are better off have no right to complain about things that annoy them (especially on the community made for complaining about mildly infuriating things).
I think it’s the fact OP is calling their neighbor an asshole for fixing their fence in a less than perfect way that really irked me. I get annoyed when privileged people want to play the victim; it’s something I know I should work on, but right now it’s a part of my character.
I also wish the same for us both. But I’d like to remind you, people who rent can also find themselves complaining about the neighbour’s mismatched fenceposts
I wish I was lucky enough to be a homeowner complaining about 2 mismatched fenceposts

The 3 inch nails protruding through the rails are much more complaint-worthy than the too-tall pickets.
They don’t even come close to the home owners fence bro
Good news is that many landlords excel at this level of craftsmanship.
Check where you are, because come on, that’s the whole point of this community
There are things I can relate to, and this is not one of them. Hence my comment
I’m more than mildly infuriated I will likely never own a home.
Have you tried looking for a home somewhere undesirable
What? Like in-between lanes on the freeway?
I was thinking Ohio, but sure
have you looked into the United States department of agricultures direct loan program?
Wait, are we in mildyinfuriatinghomeownerproblems?
