Bad Neighbor

[briano]

My buddy across the street from me has problems with this guy too, so tomorrow we are going to sit out in his yard because there is a better view of the jerks house, we are going to have a camera on a tripod like we are filming and drinkin beer, also my brother mentioned a nice touch, have a big knife or an axe to sharpen just to freak him out. Nothing illegal about sittin by the side of the road in a chair sharpening your machete or axe, I'm just getting thins ready to trim some brush in my yard.

Briano, Have a couple buddy's over for a few beers and have them sit with you. I would do that for a friend. My mother always taught me do not get mad get even.

I was thinking the same thing! If you need some one to keep you company let me know

I found out last week that one of my neighbors are moving out (no loss at all). But now the fear of...........whats going to move in............has started.

I like my neighbors. I've been living here since 1995, the neighbors to the west, I had a 5 minute conversation with him about 8 years ago, the neighbor to the west, older lady, very nice, we don't talk much either. No neighbors across the street, no neighbors to the south. Nobody calls the sheriff when I ride the atv around the block. We have one police officer, part time, and nobody calls him either. Love my little village.

Lots of good stories here. I told my wife a couple weeks ago that you don't have to "marry" your neighbors. If everyone just uses common sense, all this BS could be avoided. We pretty much just leave people do what they are going to do as long as nobody gets hurt. That said, I could rattle off a list of things a handfull of my neighbors could improve on but it's one of those things that are not worth the valuable time we all need to live. BTW, dogs seem to be a HUGE responsibility in suburban neighborhoods. I cant believe the percentage of people that own dogs today. I love dogs but WOW!

A friend a ways back lived on a lake, had a nice house and a vacant lot next door. Then the lot was listed for sale and sold. The new owners built this HUGE house, I mean aprox 7500 sq ft, 3 stories all windows etc. All was fine until the new guy came over and started giving my friend a hard time about some of the things in his yard and how it looked trashy.

SOOOOO, my friend made a bread gun! (kinda like a potatoe gun but shoots pieces of bread) Every night after the workers would leave he would fire a loaf or 2 onto the roof. The seagulls had a all you can eat smorgasboard and in turn would poop all down the roof and his 3 stories of windows. They have lived there now 7 years and still have to get the windows cleaned on a regular basis because the seagulls still sit on his roof.

It is a real nice looking home from the lake 2-3 days a month though.

I had the same problem as a lot of you have a neighbor from **** , Parks in front of my house with tires in my yard , Never mows maybe once its past his knees he might , Then this spring he put up a trampoline right at the lot line next to our bedroom window when he has the whole yard to put it in, kids are out there at 7 am screaming and yelling tried talking to him just ignores me
my friend from work gave me a bottle and told me to pour some in his car window at night and on the trampoline and that will solve my problem well one night a week ago it was go time I crept though the darkness with bottle in hand (even the one my buddy gave me) made my way to his car and bingo window was open so I opened to bottle to pour some in and omg I almost puked this stuff is death in a bottle after regaining my composure and wiping my mouth off ,I poured some in then made my way to the back yard trampoline and poured it all over it by this time im five pounds lighter and eyes were watering I started running back to my safe zone just as I thought I had accomplished my mission I forgot about the wife's new rose bush she planted by the front walk way well needless to say ouchhhhhh!! I crowed like a 5 am rooster lol...(at 1 am) and the liquid I had left went all over me well needless to say the wife was pissed cause her rose bush was on its way to space and I smelled like liquid *** yup you all read right LIQUID *** . that's what my buddy gave me and said would work well ....After 4 -30 min showers and a bottle of the wife's perfume I was ready to see if my mission was a sucsess ....low and behold when he got in his car for work I saw him spring back out and start yakking in his yard like a drunken sailor (or just like me about 5 hrs earlier) he didn't even make it to work that day then around 7 am the kids came to play on there new trampoline and hmm they kept playing on it for like an hr guess it didn't work I thought but once inside after playing I could here yelling and saw the kids run out of the house with the mom not far behind screaming to get undressed out side and get in the showers well all and all my plan worked later that day my neighbor asked if I heard anyone out side that night I said no but I think someone was around cause my wife's rose bush was in the street all in all it was a payback that worked for me its called liquid *** and believe me it works very well ..... just just my point of view

WOW, now that is Fuunnnyyy!

Forgot all about this post. How are things working out with the neighbor? I ran into a pretty good one to do to a nieghbor. Found this out by accident but it sure was funny. I have nieghbors all the way around me (live on the lake)who do not care as much about lawn care and yard up keep as I do. For the past few years I have been feverishly trying to keep the creeping charlie out of my yard. None of the neighbors really care, and a couple love it because it doesn't grow high and therefore doesn't need as much mowing. So this year I asked everyone around me if I could spray the property line and into thier lawns with a Pre emergent. Not knowing anything about lawn care they didn't know what I was even talking about but they didn't want to look stupid so they agreed. The spray was a little spendy but man did it work. Two of the neighbors lost "all things green" in thier yard. Now I sprayed on a day that they could/did all watch what I was doing. They couldn't blame me for spraying Round Up in thier yard and not mine as I swept across the the properties. Now they are trying to get grass seed to take because they don't want the kids to track in mud from the yard!!!!

 

[briano]

he won't even come outside when I am out in the yard, so I am always looking for things to do, but I can't wait to set up a lawn chair and just give him the stare down when he mows his lawn. I figure I will wave at him every pass that he makes

I am the same way you are..........I try to keep my yard as nice as possible, but one of my neighbors does not give a crap about their yard and only cuts theirs every other week or so. I actually cut their grass right up to their house (about 15 feet past the lot line). I also fertilise about half of their yard to help keep the weeds down. But the dandelions that he has in his yard I walk over and give them a couple shots of round up. I kind you not, and I do it in the day, he has never said any thing about the dead spots in his yard.

I would be your neighbor from **** (by your opinon). Life is way to short to worry about weeds in the yard. My neighbors yards look worse than mine and I do nothing to mine, except mow it every once in a while. I don't care what the neighbors do or think. We have a well paid code violations guy to take care of this stuff in our town. If your yard looks nice he also is the guy to make sure your taxes go up. How can anybody live in a developement usually with gates (what a false sense of security) and must keep your garage doors closed and no trucks, snowmobile trailers, camping trailers,etc in the drive let along parked in the yard. Life is to short.

My neighbor is driving me nuts, he lives right next door on the same side of the street. It started about 8 years ago when I moved here with my brother, this guy hated our dog. He always complained about the dog crapping in his yard and had pics to prove it was our dog, we worked all day and the dog was in the house and when we were home the dog was on a leash always. This guy would be walking up and down the road in front of our house with his camera taking pics of our cars, trucks, wheelers, and sleds. Last year I bought this house from my brother and things been kind of quiet for a while, til a couple months ago. I went to a snowmobile show and the girlfriend was at work, I get home and the arse of a neighbor had a party at his house and had 3 cars parked in my driveway. I called him up and very kindly asked him to get them out of my yard, he has the balls to tell me that my driveway is not my property and he was calling the city, I responded not very kind and said I was calling a tow truck. The cars were moved immediately, he comes strutting down my drive and wants to talk, I wanted to smash him but he is a sue crazy nut job. Now yesterday he calls the cops on the guy across the street for riding his lawn tractor with his grand daughter, he felt the child was in danger. I hate this guy, any good tips to make him crazy, or things that you have to deal with with your goofy neighbors.

Put a web cam up and let us watch him. We can always use more cams on here

Awesome, remember make him move them call the cops whatever it takes. Check out all of your lines first so he can't come back at ya. I've had some success when I "found" a realtor sign and put it in front of "someones" house at 3a.m. I have never felt better. I would do the listing on a public computer though, in the event of a court case.

Call the cops on him for calling the cops on you. I would also tell him you know Chuck Norris and he owe's you a favor. Cause you bot the Total Gym.
