To begin, I live in SC, on a quiet little town street with mostly families and stay at home moms...good little road, pretty peaceful because of the big church nearly across from me.
For the last 20 minutes SO and I have heard knocking sounds on our doors and windows, only to open the door and discover no one is outside (big wooden blinds are in the closed position). Low and behold we open the door the last time very quickly and there is some bratty little jerk in the front yard throwing ROCKS at my windows and doors!!!! He hid in the bushes at first and I spotted him and yelled "HEY, KID!!!" and he ran off down the street! Why is he not in school?! Where are his parents?! I'm 22 years old and feel like an old person yelling at the neighbor about their pet dog, though my 80 year old-man neighbor next door just told me I should set out bear traps...hahaha I love an elderly person with a great sense of humor :boxing:
I've had this issue since I first moved in! The first year I moved in a pile of kids threw all of my pumpkins off my front porch and broke them up in my yard (I love pumpkins, I wanted to kill them ). I've received 4 notices about my grass being one 1/2 inch higher than it is supposed to me within the last three years, and I've come outside to city officials taking pics of my yard at 9am in the morning, blocking me in when I have to get to class, because a female neighbor called to say that my newly mowed grass was too high. These women cross over to the OTHER side of the street when I pass by. OMG WHAT DID I EVER DO?!!? I never throw parties, my house is always quiet, no loud music...grrrr!!! They have even called the city on me for leaving my trash can out a day longer than I was supposed to!!!
The other day I looked out the window and two women that really do not like me (they tend to whisper and point when I pass by) were stopped across the road speaking to two men. They pointed to my yard and the man walked over, and let his dog poop in my yard!!! What the heck?!
How do you guys handle nasty neighbors? My Dad wants to stick a victorian claw-foot bathtub in my yard and plant flowers in it and then see what they say about the grass after that!
Omg and while I was sitting here typing they came back again! Two of them now! Call me *****y but I called the police, hah, cop is wandering the neighborhood to see if he can find them. If they weren't throwing stones at my glass windows and doors I probably wouldn't be so annoyed, but since they are, well, the cop should scare them a bit
