You really are full of surprises. Sure you weren't a conservative in a prior life?

I have NEVER had democrat neighbors that trimmed their hedges or even kept their yards mowed. Just like the customer cars and trucks I used to work on. If the car was a pigsty, it was always owned by a liberal. No sense of responsibility. No pride. Liberal women were (and are) the absolute worst. Literally maggots in their cars from old food left behind. How come you guys are such slobs?

You have steel bars on the windows of your home to keep people from borrowing your lawn tools.

Here’s how us not emasculated men do it: “No, you can not borrow my tools”.

Well, unfortunately, the hedge clippers fit between the bars.
I find it ironic that a person that votes for defunding the police and is pro crime has to have bars on their windows. The very definition of stupidity, right there. Let the criminals out---but lock yourself in.

When I got married (1970) I had to straighten out my new wife on subjects like that. I had a 3 stack of those red toolboxes and after a couple problems she was told you do not loan out my tools.

She also was good about telling people/relatives, Dave is a plumber he can fix/install that for you. Then the same deal with my PU truck, Dave can go to the store with you and get it home for you. I told her you do not speak for me. She was a little put off for a while but considering we are now married 54 years she caught on OK.

Nobody ever accused liberals of being smart. Nobody.

When I was a full time home builder I used to carry spare junk Chinese hammers and nailsets and had pliers/screwdrivers in the truck…

When someone asked to borrow I’d hand them the junk and not expect it back.

Like they say, if you want it done right, do it yourself. House and yard are clean and groomed along with myself, wife and dog. Bike is clean and I don't lie clutter.

Datawiz, as he would always have a spare Corvette to loan out to me. And I could upgrade my monitors every few years when he tosses his.

I think GTOguy would be good neighbor. When I first got into classic cars back in the 90's, I bought a 66 GTO and then a friend convinced me to try Corvettes. I'm not a master mechanic but know my way around a garage and help out at my buddies shop on restoring C2 Corvettes. Plus, he is a conservative.

If you were my neighbor I'd let you use my lift and tools to work on your classic. Love to help out if I can. Click image for larger version

Yup 30 years now with mine. Our neighbor is a nice lady but lifelong single. No, not a lesbo.

She would ask my wife if I could do or fix things and my wife would say "sure." Now it has changed to "Let me ask him." and I would tell her the time and day I can do it instead of jumping through my ass
