LabattBlue Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) I think I've ranted above this before... Next door neighbor is a complete slob and I have no idea why they own a house. Old pieces of a swing set in a flower bed(which are just filled with weeds), sh*t all over the deck, cuts his grass maybe once a month, garage filled front to back with crap(they have never used it for one of their cars)and my favorite...had an above ground pool put in 4-5 years ago. As the installers always do, they bring in a bobcat to skim and level the ground. They always leave the pile of dirt behind, and it's your job to spread it around, or get rid of it. Fast forward 4-5 years, the moron left the pile of dirt right where the installer left it next to the pool...it is now covered in weeds, and actually has a small tree growing out of it....and oh by the way, I think they f***ed up the liner in the pool, as it got uncovered around the 4th of July, but never opened beyond that. These are the kind of people that belong in a trashy apartment complex...or a house in one of the trashy areas of the city. Not sure why they ever bought a house to begin with. I've given up and will be planting privet or something else that can grow 10-15' high and block the view of this from my deck. Don't care as much in the winter time.

New neighbors (like four months in the neighborhood new) call code enforcement on our pastureland for being overgrown. Not even adjacent to their property. Consequence? Using a scythe to cut it down (two acres) before COB tomorrow. Don't even know the woman, but I hate her already. Let's hear about your ***** neighbors. You have pastureland? Are you grazing sheep?

MarkyMannn Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 My previous neighbors were the most obnoxious slobs out there. Can't believe they were next door 10 years. My castle felt like my hell hole. They got evicted and house sat vacant 2 years, some of the best 2 years I've been there. Now all re-habed, a young couple owns it. The guy is out of down 3 weeks a month, and she goes lives with her mother those 3 weeks. The only problem now..............

GoBills808 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I had some bad neighbors once when I lived in the industrial area. At first it was just one guy who used to talk to himself a bunch and hit golf balls at odd hours into other people's houses. Then he started having a bunch of his friends over two, three times a week real late at night. There would be a ton of yelling and fighting sounds going on in the basement. After a couple weeks the smell of lye and nitrogen coming from their home soapmaking business became intolerable. I moved away from that city right before the guy blew up a bunch of bank offices. He was the worst. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previous house I owned, the ex and I had three vehicles, all parked in our driveway. Neighbors across the street had four vehicles, and the same size and layout driveway. But what always happened is whoever got home first, would park in the driveway next to the front porch. So the next person home, if there was room, would park behind them or in the street. Vehicle three and four were always in the street. And if I happened to need to park one of my vehicles in the street in front of my house, it would piss them off because they considered it their parking spot.

teef Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 it's my general rule of thumb, that the closer you live to me, the less likely you'll ever be inside my house, (didn't come up with it, but i find it helpful). my goal was to move to a wooded 5-10 acre lot, but my wife would have nothing to do with that. her vision was to live in a neighborhood where all the kids and families hang out together, (my nightmare). we compromised and live in an area where all the lots are 2-3 acres. it's just far away from each house that it's unlikely you'll have a random neighbor walk up and start a convo. that being said, all of my neighbors are extremely nice, quiet people. we are starting to see a turnover though. new families coming in with young kids, and my wife is all over that. when i see her texting the couples down the street, i cringe. i have enough going on with work and my own life that i just don't want another random element in the mix. i've heard too many horror stories that i stay far away. it seems like it can evolve into high school nonsense all over again. for example, my sister in law lives in an extremely nice neighborhood...the houses are a million an up, which for this area is insane. younger couples that all hang out, all belong to the same country club, dinner clubs, etc. they also all go to the kids birthdays together, swim, vacation together etc. well there was one couple in the mix i became friends with. husband was fun, wife super hot, kids were pleasant. apparently the wife made a comment about two of the other couples, and all hell broke loose. to turn a very long story short, the neighborhood had cut off this family. they're just not invited to do anything anymore. no discussion, no reason given...just done. it's ***** mean, and i want no part of that type of *****. 9 minutes ago, ShadyBillsFan said: I think everyone can say they had bad neighbors ...

LabattBlue Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I’ve learned from others...if you become best friends with your immediate neighbors and then have a falling out to the point where you don’t even say hi or wave, it sucks.

muppy Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) I have a seriously crazy neighbor lady ULTIMATE NUISANCE....she falls under the category of funny Not funny. The Lord strike me down if this be a lie I swear to you it is not. Both myself and my neighbor were cub scout leaders and one day we held a meeting of the 2 troops at her house. The boys were in her side yard playing basketball and just having a good old time. Each year cub scouts sport a different color scarf.... my troops were yellow and hers plaid with the customary blue shirts and hats. All of a sudden we see a gaggle of police cars come racing down the street.... This lady had literally called the police "reporting gang activity in the neighborhood including yelling and screaming" ,she feared armageddon I suppose SMH The cops pulled up..looked at the boys and you could tell they were PISSED. THEY were the ones that told me why they all had showed up LOL...From that day on she was put on a "call list" to basically prevent police responses to her waste of time calls. That was the funniest most crazy ones. The rest were nearly equally outrageous. We live in front of a canyon and houses across the street have one behind theirs. LOTS of critters including skunks,snakes, rodents, rabbits , coyotes etc etc etc. She called the city of San Diego and reported that neighbors were putting half eaten rats in her back yard...TCK. Yep Im sawing those rats in half in my spare time absolutely ..... Edited August 8, 2019 by muppy typo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
