A rant/sarcasm post : Strange
Feeling a little strange today.
The neighbors were burning something yesterday and I’m still trying to get over it.
Here’s a little bit about my neighbors you never wanted to know:
Do you remember the mom in “Malcolm in the Middle” screaming louder than an opera Diva sings? The mom screams like that at her kids, only most of what she says are curse words.
I’m wondering if her toddler’s first word is going to start with an “F”?
They’re the kind of people who make WalMartians look good.
If they wore a face mask it would probably look like this one:
These people have nothing more to do than have parties during a pandemic, with their 3 children inside their house, run around in illegal vehicles, yell at their kids, and scream at each other.
It isn’t enough that social services and the sheriff’s office went to their house after their toddler went missing. They found him a half mile down a rutty road that I don’t even like to walk on. Isn’t it strange though; just before that missing kid alert, the guy had been flying around on his ATV in places where they’re illegal (aka, every road in the neighborhood).
Hmmm….
I wake up every day feeling like this
And now…
NOW I have to wonder what’s in their burn barrel; The remnants of a meth lab? Left over drugs?
Used toilet paper?
No…they’d probably recycle that.
Could they be burning….
I can see the headlines now: Burning diapers send neighbor to the emergency room.
My house and their house are the only two on an entire block full of trees. Loggers from the Amazon would make better neighbors.
How did we get such “interesting” neighbors?
From what we can piece together (aka gossip), “Daddy” didn’t want his son, who had just gotten out of jail, to be homeless, so he bought a place as far away from him as possible.
Lucky us.
Don’t you just love those types of neighbors… NOT! I can relate on many occasions.

I feel sad for the children, and anyone who lives near neighbors like that.

And I thought our neighbors around the corner were bad.

The house used be be owned by someone who lost her son (she moved to another city to work through her grief). She sold it to a company that turned it into rental property. Eight years after I moved here, we had neighbors who were crack heads, some who used it only for parties during the weekend, and one that almost burned our fence down, etc. Of the people who rented it before its present owners, there were two who were decent. They were only there for a year and moved on.

Do I presume once the masks go on, they just unzip to feed themselves? Also, they were likely burning plastic because bogans don’t know about recycling and ozone-layers? Cheers,H

You have a good point: They may have been burning plastic.
Unfortunately, much of the recycling has ended up in our oceans — compliments of everyone from kings to the lowliest commoners.

Our neighbours are very quiet, you would hardly know we had any. This post is very entertaining.

I have a quiet neighbor across the street and we get along well. We have helped each other out many times.
It’s the people in “that house” who have been the problem. Maybe it’s the the house that’s cursed and it either drives out the good people or makes the bad ones worse. 🙂

We have pretty good neighbors now. I have lived next to some pretty interesting people in the past, though!

I can only hope that one day the house will be inhabited by decent people.

Horsefeathers! I’m glad you’re trying to laugh about it — and you did a good job of making us laugh. 😀 But I know all too well what it’s like to have bad neighbors. It’s a terrible thing to have to put up with. Wishing you a peaceful weekend. Hugs on the wing!

Laughing about it makes it seem a lot less stroke-inducing. 🙂
That’s always a worry when moving to a new neighborhood. I lived in a place for 7 years where people thought I was saying terrible things about them. When I left, they discovered it was the neighbor in the house behind mine. But it wasn’t pleasant to live there for the last few years.

I had the most horrible noise problems in my DC townhouse. I was already struggling not to have a breakdown, when the “kids” on one side got a dog that never stopped barking. I wasn’t financially ready to leave work (and housing is so expensive there that just moving somewhere else wasn’t a good option), but a few months of that dog was the last straw. Similar to you, I was afraid everyone would think it was mine (because we shared the same little porch).
Fortunately, it’s pretty quiet where I am. Finally a detached house. Now if my stalker across the street (old pervert who refused to take “no” for an answer so he comes out to stare every time I go outside) would just go away, it’s be terrific. I hope your neighbors will go away too. Hugs.
