Post Your Bad Neighbor Story Here!


I have a neighbor that is very trying on my nerves to say the least. I won't go into details. He is about 80+ years old by the looks of him and the grouchiest man I have ever known. Yesterday he took his rake handle and wailed on the side of my metal workshed from across the fence in his yard while I was in there working and scared the bejeezus out of me...just to tell me UPS had dropped off a package.

it was kinda funny actually he was grinning, I think he gets a kick out of tormenting me. LOL

yet he is very mean and set in his ways...the incident I just mentioned is nothing to some of the things he does..

if you feel like it post your funny or or dysfunctional stories about your bad neighbors...it would be interesting, maybe mine isn't so bad after all..haha

JC

oh and he hates leaves...if I dont keep yard raked constantly he goes on these tyrants...This time of year I can rake and the yard would be full of leaves the next day..he rakes everyday..he is retired and can do this...geezus man some people have to work and cant rake everyday...LOL

LOL...I try to be as respectful as I can, I consider his age and senility may be a factor so I keep all that in mind, yet sometimes it can really take every ounce of self restraint I have to remain civil... I peek out the window first to see if he is out sometimes...get in vehicle and do the haul ass thing too!

edit: I should quick take a picture of him when he stares me down and post it here...it would be a riot I know it!

Well, I went ahead and solved this area of tension between me and my neighbor. I went and hired a guy that does my other neighbors yard and hedges and edges the driveway...he did it today. He charged $40.00 to get the yard in shape(wasnt bad)...raked, mowed, and trimmed hedges back and edged driveway. he charges $25.00 each additional time and does it once a month or as asked. He bags up all the leaves and puts them to the road, supplies all his own tools and gas.

he does a lot of yards around this neighborhood. I bet he makes a small killing...wow he's fast too!


Anyway I think the bad neighbor is actually smiling for once. hopefully problem solved.

I find that if you shoot the first neighbor that comes over to your place, and hang him from your front porch, that the rest will just naturally stay away.
