Random Sucky Neighbor Thoughts

Ah, that kind of fallout... I think we all understand. :P That's why I always try to determine if someone taking my spot is a complete stranger or just someone in the complex who had a brain fart before I get them towed.

[morgana]

Yeah, legal fallout I'm not worried about.

Probably going to call the office on Monday.

[greek_jester]

...since I'm now the only handicapped placard in the building.

You have more right than anyone to complain, then. Do you know who owns the car? Maybe that would give you a feeling for whether there may be fallout. Of course that would also be an HR issue.

[morgana]

Thinking about discussing it with the office. Could wind up impounded . . . Just not sure I'm up for the possible flare-back, since I'm now the only handicapped placard in the building.

[Food Lady]

^ There must be some rule against that that you can cite.

[morgana]

Dude, we only have ONE handicapped slot in front of our building. So WHY has your so-huge-it-has-to-have-running-boards-for-you-to-get-in black no-handicapped-sticker-or-hangtag pickup been sitting in it for the last four days?

MC, similar over here. I went out for a walk and left the screen door open with a fan in it cool off the apt. When I got back of course my neighbors were outside smoking, because nobody in his complex can go more than a couple of hours, and I had smoke in here. If they want to have a proven unhealthy habit then that's between them and their maker but I shouldn't have to be subjected to second-hand smoke. It isn't just the smell. It compromises my breathing.

Look, you effin' assholes, it's dark outside now and the air is finally cooler than lava! I need to keep the windows open for a while! Why the hell are you running that godforsaken mower IN THE DARK! Keep your stinking exhaust to yourselves, you obviously don't care about your lungs, given what you normally smoke, but I care about mine!!

Can someone tell me that the soccer world thingy has finished now?

It's finished, thank goodness.

And thanks for the laugh as your guests were leaving last night. It was pretty funny listening to a drunk man trying to make shushing noises at other drunk people walking (stumbling) down 4 flights of stairs.

At least they were trying to be considerate. Better than some.

Dear lovely new neighbours,

The walls are pretty good here and block out normal noise. But they don't block out whatever noises you were making with you friends late last night. I'm going to guess cheering and groaning about the ball and all the guys running around chasing it.

I hope your team won. Or at least didn't lose too embarrassingly.

(Even though this was at 1:30am last night I was still awake trying to organise Centrelink paperwork in the lounge. They weren't loud enough to be heard in the bedrooms above a low radio. If I had the TV or music on in the lounge I wouldn't have heard them as clearly as I did.)

To the twit two doors down...you've had that wreck sitting in your front yard for a month. Who are you fooling by pushing it back and forth every so often? We all know that it's well overdue for a state inspection, and the registration ran out a long time ago. Why the need for the charade that it runs?

[MoonCat]

Hey assholes, the 4th was 10 days ago! You can stop with the illegal fireworks now, buttheads.

One blood-curdling, banshee-imitating scream from your 5-year-old* is bad enough but you didn't stop it there. You let them do it 3 more times. My friend on the phone could hear it several yards away.

* I expect that from a one-and-a-half year old who's just found her lungs.

Sounds like Princess Bitchface's MiniMe, next door. That kid's screams could cut glass at 50 yards. And she's around 5 years old, so there's really no excuse except that her parents rarely bother to tell her to stop it.

Hubz went to put the trash out last night, only to find our garbage can half full of grass clippings. Not in a bag. Also, not from our yard. I have a suspicion of which neighbor is responsible and I am beyond annoyed. Here's a thought, deadbeats: maybe try mowing your grass before it reaches chin height and pay for your own trash removal. I'm moving the trash can behind the privacy fence. Problem solved.
