Or "Get off my lawn!" xD
Background: I live in a flat, which I rent from a private landlord, who works thru an agency. The flat is part of a block of flats, some of which are owned by the occupiers and some are rented from private landlords. With the flat comes two lawns. One which is situated next to the car park, and one round the front. It's the front lawn which seems to attract the problem. Both these lawns are owned and maintained by the landlords, who contribute towards their maintenence.
The problem is that recently, a few families have decided that rather than get off their fat arses and walk five minutes down the road to the lovely park where they are allowed to take their children to let off steam, they prefer to park their car next to the front lawn and let their screaming hellions run around like loons there. I'm not an unreasonable person, but it's the constant screeching along with the mass litter droppage that annoys me about these people and their offspring. I don't think that the parents would be all that keen if I were to sit down on their front lawn and throw litter about while screaming at the top of my lungs.
However, I have found that standing by my kitchen window seems to shift these people. XD I think that they spot me standing there, and it hammers it home to them that they are on private property, and they remove their kids sharpish. I've also, while standing there watching them disappear down the road, seen a traffic warden ticket the car left there in the permit only parking section. XD
