I wish I had taken pictures of it but in the neighborhood I lived in ten years ago, someone’s house and yard were absolutely covered with like twenty home made signs with huge arrows pointing to the house next door saying poo poo like A RACIST LIVES HERE! WARNING BAD NEIGHBOR! HATE CRIME! —-> and so on.

I always wondered what in the hell happened there between those two neighbors. I didn’t get a photo because I didn’t want to be seen and somehow pulled into some crazy drama on someone else’s street. If nextdoor had been around then I’m sure it would have been an even bigger shitshow involving lots more people.

Insane lawn guy post, not from Nextdoor but from my brain:

When I moved here it was rear end-cold end of December 2017. My neighbor directly to the east, an elder in his 70s, made a huge deal of telling me he's "a grass cutter" and he'd cut my grass for forty dollars. Very cool, I'll take him up on that in the later spring, I tell him. I just have to get my leaves and stuff cleaned up in the yard from the previous owner; he says ok.

Fast forward to March, it's still rear end-cold but there's no snow. I schedule a gutter cleaning since it hasn't been done in two years. Gutter guy says hey, my brother can also remove all the leaves off of your lawn l. Cool. I pay them, they do it, it's all good.

My neighbor becomes furious with me and tells me "I thought I told you I'm a grass cutter." You did. "I do it ALL." Okay? He then refuses to speak to me until June.

Around that time his adult son, my age, and I were talking outside and his son told me that dad is mad because I let someone else remove my leaves and fell a dead tree from my lawn. About five years of accumulated leaf debris. I'm baffled, and neighbor's son explained that dad used to do everyone's lawns in the neighborhood so they were "up to his standards."

He slowly lost all of his clients due to death from old age and also being a nosy weirdo.

We don't have an HOA, we have "Arthur" and he's a nosy old rear end in a top hat with a sad case of rapidly declining cognitive function.

He still mows my lawn because it keeps him happy, it costs forty bucks for my giant suburban hellscape lawn, and he's never yelled at me again about it. This will probably be the last year since he's getting really bad off and honestly, I'm about at the end of my ability to deal with his nosiness.

Watch out - BATS!

Seen a lot of bats in the neighborhood lately, many of them coming from "That certain castle" that we all know. I have started whipping them when I find them and will continue to do so (we support 2A in this neighborhood) but something needs done!!!!

I was walking down the street the other day and saw a werewolf (possibly a bobcat) running "wild". This neighborhood is going downhill - FAST! Not surprised thanks to our Commie Socialist Governor - first he allows abortion - now VAMPIRES!!!

Warning - early morning runners or walkers. June 10 about 6:15 am, Ralston Creek path, east bound between Vigil and Quaker ... I saw a man this morning dressed head to toe in a royal blue sweat suit with sunglasses standing four inches from a tall tree. It struck me that he was dressed and standing by the tree as a predator. I was totally creeped out, therefore the warning. Be careful out there.

So instead of being passive aggressive on the internet, here is what happened last night in my tiny village. One of the 2 young, seemingly meth'd out sport bike riders staying at the lovely apartment-house type deal, that's had at least 2 OD's in 3 years, comes SCREAMING through at about 10:30 pm. Then again. Any nice day for the past month, he or the other one will do this. I ride sport bikes, I get they are loud, and I know what 100mph looks like. It's a 35 zone. There are dozens of children out all the time. Unfortunately, the village is located at the bisection of 2 pretty major state routes, so traffic is a little annoying, so most of the parents are careful with the kids, but kids are kids. So anyway, he screams down to the new storage unit, is there for less than a minute(def think he's got a stash there, but that's his business, and my immediate neighbors all agree we done want state or county boys sitting around town all the time. After the drop off/pickup, he comes back! But this was going to be his third pass. At the second pass, I decided, possibly against better judgement, I had had enough. I grab the staff I keep by the door, bang open the garage and step out into the street, start heading across the back yard toward the idiot at the storage unit. I notice, with great satisfaction, both dads on either side of me had the EXACT same thought, and were both out there with me. At this point, biker kid starts heading back, hammers it and crests the hill, only to find the three of us standing in the road, waiting for him. He comes to a stop in front of us, my big country boy neighbor grabs the bike by the forks. I start yelling at him, you stupid gently caress, do you not know the loving speed limit, do you not see the loving kids everywhere, do you realize I know precisely where the gently caress you live, and we don't call the loving cops, etc. The neighbors also chime in, at about the same volume. The kid was shook. I won't lie, I was prepared for violence, but I'm going to stick to my guns here, and simply state I have enough evidence to be hesitant about calling police, who tend to escalate the situation. I did not want to confront the dude at his apartment, where there are more people, probably definitely more guns(Ohio!), and felt this was at least the most rational course of action. He starts nodding, eyes very wide, mostly listening, and we are calming down. He goes "okay guys I get it I get it, but couldn't you have come to me more respectfully? Maybe without THAT thing(the staff)?" Before be could finish, I was like buddy, respect is not flying though your own loving neighborhood, and what was I supposed to do? Politely ask you to stop as you're screaming past with the front wheel lifting off the ground? He went quiet, neighbor let go of the bike, we stepped back. We had more than made ourselves clear. I thanked him, told him to have a good night, and thank you again. And he rode off back home.

Not 5 minutes later he goes by again. This time, 35mph, 1200rpms. Fixed.

Sure, some of you would insist you should never confront anyone, ever, but I disagree. The more we use apps to be passive aggressive with eachother, the more we will resent and misunderstand eachother. I personally feel that's loving dumb.

This reminded me of the neighborhood I grew up in. It was a heavily wooded neighborhood off the Chesapeake, lots of pine trees, so us children were always making bike paths through wooded areas. Down a dead end road, there was a large patch we always went. One of the last two houses on the street faced eachother on either side of the street. One of them had an 8x4ft sheet of plywood, with a printed mug shot of the neighbor across at the top and CAUTION emblazoned across. They even put caution style hash lines on the boarder of the street. Then, a paragraph, hand painted, something along the lines of this: CAUTION: THIS IS FIRST NAME LAST NAME, AGE, SEX OFFENDER, WE HAVE CAUGHT HIM A NUMBER OF TIMES PEEKING INTO OUR WINDOWS, TRYING TO SEE OUR YOUNG DAUGHTER, LOCK YOUR DOORS, PROTECT YOUR KIDS, WE HAVE CALLED THE POLICE A NUMBER OF TIMES AND THEY DO NOTHING.

Pretty crazy poo poo.
