Random Sucky Neighbor Thoughts

[MoonCat]

Ew. Yeah, there's a guy who lives two houses away from me who's on the sex offender list for my area. His crime was a couple of decades or more ago, and in another state, but still. The house between his and mine has two kids in it (the Warts - and while I can't stand these people, kids are kids!)

Best part? The guy who owns the house Mr. S.O. lives in....is a cop.

Please don't be standing in your front yard or the middle of the cul-de-sac staring at everyone like a creeper when we're showing our house, k?

We have one of those where I live. This guy will slowly walk around the circle, and will stare at certain houses, especially if he knows they have children While he hasn't done anything, he's creepy. There's no reason to do that, and yes, the children in the area will go the other way if they see him out walking. We've had him checked out by the cops, but so far, because he hasn't done anything, he's left alone.

That grass your kids are tearing up out there is not yours. The property belongs to the management company. On top of it, they are blocking the sidewalk in front of the stairs. I remember when I used to come home with my rolling cart because I didn't have a car. I am sooooo glad I don't live in that building. It's a good thing the lady with the mobility issue lives on the opposite end, close to the parking lot. She's got a mental disability, too. I don't know what would happen in this situation.

ETA: nice large branch they left in the walkway. I should take a picture of that.

Maybe your roommate should put on some SHOES when taking out the trash.

I agree. Or at least, not open-toed shoes or sandals.

My roommate has now cut her foot a second time.

So I have no idea what's going on with the apartment next door to me. The guy that lived there moved out a couple months ago, and they had a lock box on stair railing with the key to the place, did the usual carpet cleaning and whatnot. And random people were parking in the parking space assigned to it. Now all of a sudden the lock box is gone, the spot remains empty, and random packages outside the door, two different ones with two different names which have now disappeared. With NO sign of the actual neighbor, if there is one. It's like a phantom. Oh and for hours now keys have been stuck in the lock outside. Just hanging there.

I've seen no sign of anyone moving in. I'm starting to get freaked out.

Dear neighbors,
We know it was you that accidentally broke some mirror by the curb where we all put our trash cans. One roommate already cut her foot on the broken glass out there. It had been a week now, and the broken glass is still there.
Clean your mess up, gorrammit.

Annoyed Winger, who is tempted to sweep up the glass and leave it on your doorstep.

Dear neighbors,

It's been almost a month now. The broken glass is still there.

There are kids who play in this neighborhood. Including your kids.

My roommate has now cut her foot a second time.

The HOA sent around that email recently about various things we need to take care of. I'm now seriously tempted to contact them about you.

Also, while we're talking, stop putting your trash in our bins. Especially when you put trash in the recycling bins!

I'm not entirely certain that dog really is a service animal. They're supposed to be trained not to bark at people and you leave it at home. If it's a service animal, don't you need it with you? I'm usually a champion of people who need them but I don't know, I'm just not certain this is the truth. Call it a gut feeling.

Apparently they are vetting their potential new neighbours ... ?

We haven't gone on the market just yet, but him standing around like a space cadet isn't unusual. Nice enough guy, just weird. I'm not totally convinced he's not on something.

... Tiny Dick Syndrome ... Common in people who drive gihugeous loud trucks and spurts cars that are prick parked so nobody gets near them.

Aka "Rev that engine louder, I can't hear how small your dick is."

Grumpy Old Bat who lives across from me is, I think, a smoker. Periodically the smoke wafts in under my door. Ugh.

Yes, this is a non-smoking building; however, smokers who already lived here when those laws were passed were given a 'grandfather clause pass'. I understand that and I don't have any real problem with it. She and I got off to a bad start right from the start, so this is just something else about her I can grumble about.

[jedimaster91]

Can you do me a solid, here, neighbor. Please don't be standing in your front yard or the middle of the cul-de-sac staring at everyone like a creeper when we're showing our house, k? We want someone to buy it.

OK, I've obviously missed this one; what does TDS mean?
