Only have two neighbors, if we don't count Bambi and all of his forest friends. Next door two healthcare professionals with a lifted Dodge Cummins in the driveway with Montana plates. They're hardly ever home. Across the street, a nurse and a HS Baseball Coach with an Expedtion, an Audi, and 4 great kids. We're all holding down the redneck corner of a very upscale neighborhood. :D

They live a few houses down across the street. Their son, who I think lives with them still, was arrested about a year ago for boosting cars. Apparently quite a few of them. They like to sit in their garage with the door open, in lawn chairs, smoking and glaring at anybody who walks or drives by. When Jr. was busted they kept the garage door shut for a few months, but now they are willing to show their faces again. Lots of different cars in their driveway during odd times of the day and night, and a few weeks ago my next-door neighbor, a really nice and hard-working guy, had his truck broken into and $5000 worth of tools stolen. He rightfully suspects Jr. over there. This is a nice neighborhood and we all wish they would just leave and go find a nice meth lab somewhere. Why Jr. is still on the streets is anybody's guess.

When the weird brother, and fat sister team built a dump next door, we moved....I lost my ass in the sale, but it was worth every penny to get away from that weirdness....Picture spandex bicycle shorts, on a 200 lb woman, riding up at the back of the knees....:ohnoes:

For the last 20 years I have lived in a neighborhood with non-weird people. However, before that the neighborhood I had was just cram packed with weirdos!
The worst were some oil-field trash that lived across the street. What was their double garage faced our house, they converted to a room and replaced the doors with windows sometime before we moved in.
I kept noticing that I could see something piled up in the middle of the garage-room. After a couple of years I had reason to walk up their former driveway to recover a ball my son and I were throwing back and forth. I could see the pile in the floor was a pile of clothes.
Our next door neighbor told us one day that the lady of the house had come over and asked to borrow her vacuum. She said, "We have lived there 20 years and I have never vacuumed so I figure I better." When she brought the vacuum back the motor was burned up.
The guy that lived on the other side of us was an administrator of a local hospital. He was a nice older guy, funny but always drunk. I never saw him without a highball in his hand. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Everyday we would see UPS and FedEx stopping at their house. Sometimes a couple of deliveries a day.
A couple years after he retired he progressively got weirder (his wife never came outside so I have no idea about her at this point.)
One day a guy came to the house, he said he was their son and was wanting to know how long they had been acting weird. I told him that we had been there 10 years and he had always seemed the same to me. I had no idea about the wife as I never met her. The son said they were hoarders and buyers. He had put them both in a retirement home because he could do stop them from buying shit. He took me in the house and showed be that the whole house was stacked floor to ceiling with boxes of shit that they had bought from QVC. Boxes of TV's, VCR's, everything you could imagine and none of it ever even openned. This was pre-Craig's list and the interweb so it took the son about 3 months to sell all the shit and clean the house out.
:lolsmile:
I'm pretty lucky. I live in a cul de sac and like all my neighbors. My daughter is married to the son of the couple across the street.

Since we have alleys here for our cars, noone much goes out front unless you're walking, so you don't really meet anyone. I walk alot with Dover, but I am booking along pretty quickly and don't stop to chat....not that anyone is outside, anyway!
The darling lady next door did come over, though, to welcome us when we moved in. and I've been over to her house several times. She's about 74 and single, looking for a good, fun man who can still get around. Anybody have a daddy or granddaddy looking for a good woman? :D Serious! :lol:

I have an auburn fan right across the street from me.
Friggen hick.
I have no idea if either neighbor is weird. One speaks Chinese and the other Vietnamese.
Some people are building a house on my street, drive a Nissan Cube, gotta be weird.:lolsmile:
Only others on our street have cool cars.
I've never spoke to any of them.

No bullshit, but we actually do have some truly fecked up neighbors.
Both are deaf (Not making jest of deaf people, because I'm damn near deaf:D) and when they have a big fight, she will get out in the front yard and yell at the old man.
Sounds like feeding time at the seal tank in Sea World.
We have dubbed her "Seal Lady".
They managed to reproduce a boy.
He's about 10-11 and has to live with his grandparents because he used to get his kicks by sneaking un-announced into neighbors homes and scaring the shit outta whoever was home.
D-FACS & the local police usually show up there around 2-3 times a year.

You should see the ones on the front end of the bookend thing...I feel like a snob Gina and asked them to please stop parking their cars in front of my home.

:lolsmile: yeah I don't wanna be looking at a Cube everyday. Hope they put it in the garage or I might have to make a similar request.:lolsmile:

Says "Uncle Pervey" :rofl:
The neighbors on one side of me seemed to be nice people. I never had a cross word with them. Then when I moved out from the house for two years during the divorce, they decided to befriend my ex-wife. When I bought her out and moved back in, the wife decided to write a snotty post about me moving back in on my ex's Facebook page (BTW I didn't find it...my daughter showed it to me). Nice huh? Since then, I've found out through the kids that the neighbor gives periodic reports to my ex about the cars I have, people who come over, etc.
I could really care less, but what an idiot. :rolleyes:
The neighbors on the other side of me hated my ex because she was (and is) such a gossip, and were thrilled when I moved back in. Unfortunately, their home was struck by lightning in May and burned to the ground, so I'm waiting for them to rebuild. They were a buncha cool drunks.

When I said cram packed I mean cram packed. We had another old man that's backyard faced our house across the street. He had no fence so everyone could see him in his back yard.
He had a shed in the back and kept a little frig in there, in the little frig he kept multiple bottle so vodka. He also had a tree stump in his back yard. He was trying to get rid of the stump by burning it. Just about every night he's sit in the back yard drinking cold vodka and burning his stump. Every once in a while he'd spit some Vodka on to the burning stump.
He also shot cats with a .22, then the sheriff made him stop so he started going after them with a bull whip. His wife was a Kiwi or Aussie import, she was crazy as a shithouse rat. In the morning kids would wait for the school bus on the street corner by her house. She's run outside screaming at them chasing them with a ball bat. The sheriff was called on her several times for that shit.

We are the weird neighbors here too.
The people that live directly behind us are batshit insane. The wife has some kind of obsessive disorder and the husband is close to being certifiably paranoid (blinds always have to be pulled, he thinks the neighbors on either side of them listen in to conversations, etc.). We used to be good friends with them until the wife made a few very insulting remarks to my wife (and me). I just feel sorry for their child.
My neighbors when I lived in the city and burb were ok, but when we bought our summer camp we found we had a dingbat at the lot that was next to the driveway to our camp.
He was an ultra liberal college professor who to this day probably thinks Barack Obuma is a right wing conservative.
We had a few minor skirmishes, but the last straw was when I was sighting in a .22 rifle/scope on the back end of my property. Now I had checked with the state police and town and where I was I was a 100% legal & safe. Now if the noise was bothering him and he came over and acted OK, I even though legal would have stopped in the interest of good neighbor relations.
He came over yelling like a ass and proceeded to give me (at that time about a 30 year NRA life member) a big lecture how guns were evil and only the military should have them, and cops only on special assignments like England was. Well I straightened him out real fast with a few words his students never dared say to him. He then called the cops on me and they arrived and as all was legal proceeded to leave.
I figured fair was fair and told the cop about his unlicensed motor boat, the jumped cable service he was not paying for and all the grass him and his wacked out buddies smoked there.:beat:
Without a doubt he got the worst of that encounter and to this day he still owns the camp but never came back up, his kids and grand kids now use it.
Nope no crazy neighbor/s there now!:roll:
Not anymore although if you ask my neighbors, they might say yes.
The guy that used to live behind me was a real redneck douche. He screwed in 8 ft. fence slats to the existing 6 ft. fence on his side and didn't bother to put any extra support poles or cross bars on it, because "I can get a discount on my homeowner's insurance". The first big wind tossed his pool slide into the fence which knocked down 1/4 of the fence. He and his son kept coming over in my yard and bracing slats against the sections to hold them up. I kept taking the slats away and letting the fence fall.
I offered to go half w/ him to have a new fence put up and his reply was "MY fence is built like a brick wall. YOUR fence is the problem".
I ended up pulling the sections apart and stacking them against my house to wait until the bulk trash pickup day came. He and his son came over on my patio and started to pick up the sections and I turned my big dog lose on them.
I ended up taking a chain saw to the sections and threw the mess on the curb. We went without a fence in between us for a good while and the SOB's came over and stole my garden hose. They cut the hose to get the nozzle off and hooked it up to their house to put water in their pool.
There were a few "white trash" moments on my part, I'm ashamed to say, when his kid started yelling that he would kill my dog. I'm usually pretty easy going, but DON'T mess w/ my family, my friends nor my dogs.
The house was finally foreclosed on, he left and my dog then had the run of 2 yards for awhile.
I actually have some excellent neighbors for the most part. We all know we're here for one another if anything is needed but we are considerate of one another's privacy. Now if we could only convince the guy beside us to let us cut down his damn overgrown cedar trees right by the property line, life would be good. Our yard is always the nicest but on that side of the drive way, those damn trees are killing the grass and it's starting to look like hell.

My back neighbor is a hick car guy in his 40's with a '63 Thunderbird, 70-something F-250 with straight pipes as a daily driver, a silent, immobile but clean looking Ranchero, an 80's Thunderbird that looks like it's been sitting for 20 years and 16 dogs. Amazing thing is, I've never seen a single one of his dogs anywhere but his yard. Never in mine or anyone elses. He's got to have an electronic fence or something.
He's a hick, but not a dick hick. His yard is cleaner than mine, non-running cars aside, his dogs stay on his lawn, he turns the country music down at sunset and took his tacky-as-f**k blue christmas lights down a week ago.
His son is another story. Thankfully, he's in jail.
I just wish he'd put an exhaust on that pickup, if he's gonna be leaving for work at 6:30am every day, and I don't believe it really takes 10 minutes to warm it up in the morning either...

I see nothing wrong w/ the above bolded and highlighted in red. That's what our friends and us use for an excuse to drink. I DO find it appalling that he would waste good booze by spitting it on the burning stump. :lol:

Next door neighbor is a lonely, angry, hate the world (especially men), bull dyke bitch.
Weird isn't quite the word I'd use to describe her though. :willy:
