Disputes between neighbours can get pretty heated from time to time, with parking arguments or noise complaints unsettling the peace in even the most harmonious of neighbourhoods.
One woman, whose name is Susie, recently revealed how she and her partner chose to erect a fence outside their home against their neighbour's wishes, with the pair jokily adding "a little architectural detail for them to enjoy".
Taking to TikTok, Susie shared a video of her partner cheekily erecting a large phallic shape on the fence, which can be swivelled upwards whenever they wish.
She wrote: "He goes along with my evil plans and I just love it".

One person commented that they would have opted for a middle finger instead, while another wisely cautioned: "Now don't get too cocky my friend".
Keeping with the cheeky tone, a third person joked that they hoped Susie would add a "sprinkler for those hot days to keep your pups cool".
In response, Susie - who goes by the username the_tiketytok - revealed that she had wanted to share a video of her doing just that, but feared TikTok would take it down.
Thankfully, in a follow-up vid, it becomes clear that Susie and her neighbour are actually on very friendly terms, with the neighbour seen howling with laughter as she takes in the X-rated fence.
Clarifying that there was no real bad blood between them, Susie revealed: "She loved it. And for anyone saying she hates us, she was bringing us goodies".
In the clip, the clearly amused neighbour can be heard describing the fence as being "too funny" before adding "you guys are hysterical".
Followers loved this surprise twist to the tale even more, with one writing: "That's the cool lady neighbour I'd hope to be...and I'm probably her elder. What a jewel she seems to be".
Another said: "This makes me miss my old neighbour! We called her grandma. She'd bring over goodies all the time. even arranged a block party once!"
When quizzed as to why she'd made out that there was serious "beef" between them in the previous video, Susie added: "Because it was freaking hilarious".
