Neighbors: Love 'em, Hate 'em or just Ignore 'em?

[KChiefs1]

I've been in my house for six years now & the neighbors are starting to irritate me with little things....nothing major at this point but little minor irritations...like being Royals fans.

How does everyone on the board get along with their neighbors?

Good luck with that Carlotta.

If you sell to HUD people, be prepared to get a lowball offer, and then a list of things you'll have to fix, double the time doing paperwork, and then they'll be asking YOU to pay THEIR closing costs.

Never again for me.

I can see why that might be fun for you to do to your neighbor though.

Sounds like its time to get a slingshot and some dough balls of catnip.

Now that's something to think about.

I think I scare my neighbors. They won't even look at me. Except for the nice wife right next door. She's really friendly.

Cat on a leash? I've only seen that done a few times, and the cats always went ballastic.

I live in a townhouse/condo community. Only the dog people are social with each other, and I'm not one of them.

We're really good friends with a younger married couple two doors down. That's about it. The rest range from hellos at the mailbox from most to hostile indifference from the bitch that lives in the unit between me and my friends, who seems to hate everybody and everything. She's so antisocial she makes me look vivacious by comparison.

I couldn't tell you the name of anybody else that lives in my neighborhood other than that one couple. I admit that's kind of sad.

Start calling her Megabitch to her face. Some kids did that to my sister and it really upset her. And she is a retired teacher and is used to unruly kids.

I like that idea as well

Before we got our house, I used to take my oldest cat out on a leash. He really seemed to enjoy it, and it's not like the neighbors were going to think I was any weirder anyway.

I live in an apartment in the ghetto of Overland Park (if there is such a thing)

Nothing but Mexicans. I see them all the time, but never see the same one twice.

They are trying to raise families with 5 or 6 kids in a 2 bedroom apt.

Therefore, the kids spend a lot of time outside. All I hear is little voices yelling spanish jibberish all day and night.

They leave their toys everywhere, like they own the whole friggin complex. So I take advantage of every opportunity to throw them in the dumpster. (the toys, not the kids)

And they play in the hallways between the apartments. So I have to step on 5 of them just to get outside.

Last week, I found 2 guinea pigs in my stairway (completely unwatched), and they covered all the stairs in shit. It still hasn't been cleaned up, probably never will.

You should move your trailor to a more reputable trailor park.

My new neighborhood actually publishes a directory with names of the adults and kids as well as phone numbers.

I don't know most of them very well at all but they seem like nice enough people.

Make a spot for me on your schedule; we should talk.

My landlord is my neighbor. It sucks. I'm always afraid they will come over when I'm or or . the people on the other side are complete WT, but we have an understanding to watch out for eachother's shit because there was some break-ins in our 'hood lately.
