What Makes You Angry Today?

[JarHed]

Today it's my neighbors. They're just so damn inconsiderate. To me if you wake me up during the middle of the night, someone better be dead or there will be someone dead.

They don't work, sleep all day and are then up all night. I don't really care what they're lives are, but don't do shit that wakes me up. I have a hard enough time sleeping as it is.

The sad part is that logically there's nothing to do about it. Can't really call the cops, they make noise then they're quiet. Can't talk to them, I've tried, they have attitudes, which puts me in kill mode.

They rent, I own my home. Why in the hell do they have to live next to me???????????????

Can't live with them, can't shoot them. DAMN!!!!!!!!!

Jar, build a few chicken wire cages in your back yard. Put a few gopher snakes in them. Go over to your neighbor's house and ask them if they had seen your great western rattlesnake around anywhere, that it's feeding time and he gets real grumpy.

Could have new renters in a few days!

Sounds crazy but I had a buddy that was a Green Beret in Nam and he kept vipers in his back yard. He couldn't understand why turnover in the rentals next to him was so high (he would say with an evil grin). Hee!

That made me laugh. Thanks, I needed a good one today. :)

I'm on a roll. Temper has flared twice in two days.

1st time is when room mate sets off fire alarm making breakfast at 0530. I freaked. Hate alarms anyway. So I kindly advised him to turn on the ever fornicating fan and that he was indeed a person of inferior mental means. (aka, Turn on the f*cking fan you idiot) Cursing cuts to the chase.

Then last night 0200, I'm struggling to go to sleep. Some jackass decides to have a walk and bark session in the park across the street with his dog. This goes on for a bit. Then I lose it. March downstairs, out the front door, into the street barefooted and.....and unleash some of the finest gutter speak and cursing this city has seen in a long time. NO sleep last night. Played video games until dawn.

A little concerned about this. The bridge between me and my ex is so enticing to blow up at the moment. You know that bridge in The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Pow! To the moon Alice.

I think that guy with the dog must be related to my neighbor. Had a night of sleeplessness myself. But to compound it, 'goofy', a pet name for the jerk next door, had his disco lights going and out on his front stoop chatting away with his buddy at 2:00 am. What a maroon!

So, I did the same, I mean play video games. There's really no talking to this guy as I've done it all in the past to no avail. And disrespectful attitudes set me off like a powder keg, which is just bad for everything, me especially. I know he's doing drugs to stay up all night. He's in his 50's so his time is short. Can't keep that kind of lifestyle up at that age for long. Just hoping to outlive him. :rolleyes:

Speaking of neighbors... My ever so wonderful neighbor, who managed to rot all the fence posts at the ground from over watering, dog broke through said fence and almost killed one of my dogs last night. Over the years, I can't count how many times I've caught one of her animals in my yard, and the repairs I've had to do to the fence. They get a new pit bull on average once a year. The old one mysteriously disappears after 6-12 months. The current one they have had only about 3 months, it's around 6 months old.

My dog will be lucky to live through this. My dog has a punctured jugular vain, punctured lung (sucking chest wound), collapsed lung, several punctures into the abdomen, a broken leg/hip, and many deep punctures to the leg/hip muscles.

Her dog, actually her son's pit bull was taken by animal control last night and if I have any say at all, will be put down for this. The owner will pay dearly in cash, both to fix the fence properly and for the injuries to my dog if it lives, and if it doesn't... they will regret living.

Hmmm. Anti freeze fixes nasty dogs quite well. They love the shit. Sorry for that Barberian. That is just absolute shit.

I almost went three for three today. Damn near ripped off the guys head I was helping out. He broke his ankle and lives on the 4th floor with no elevator. A Welshman. So I run errands for him and even cook a dinner every so often. But damn if he doesn't get on my right and left nerve. Wanted to kick him in the ankle tonight. Home again. Think I need to go into deep shelter for awhile and hide from people.

At least you guys are sane. :whistle:

Update to my post above: My dog died sometime this morning at the vet's office. We took her there last night for emergency surgery. I almost posted pictures, but don't want to trigger anybody.

I spoke, with surprising civility to my neighbors this morning after we learned our dog passed away. I explained they would be receiving a vet bill, a hospital bill (forgot to mention my wife had her shoulder dislocated by the neighbors dog), and that they had better fix the fence including removing a brick and wrought iron fence they had installed about 2 years ago partially on our property (not along the property line, and against our permission).

f*ck it man. It is the land of litigation. Just go after everything they got. You got grounds to unleash a herd of lawyers on them especially with the wife being injured. I know our type don't get into that shit. But I would definitely see a lawyer. I can almost see the dollar signs in his eyes now.

If that shit happened where I grew up, that would be one dead dog and the owner might end up not so great for wear either.

Again sorry. My sympathies.

I'm so sorry, Barberian.

Being respectful and courteous by say holding the door for someone is the right thing to do. But expecting them to respond with a 'thanks' is sometimes not in their vocabulary. Do it, if you like, but don't do it expecting anything for it. Sometimes knowing that you did the right thing has to be payment enough. Otherwise you just make yourself unhappy, and that's not really necessary. As with all things; some get it and some don't.

I love holding doors for people who don't say thank you. Used to piss me off like no other. Till my buddy showed me a trick. When they don't say "thank you" you make sure every single person in 10m knows it by saying "your welcome!" very sweetly. Pisses them off quite well. If they get upset set and say "I didn't say thank you!" you keep killing them with kindness. A super overdramtic "Oh, my bad! I thought you did!" makes'em look like the arsewholes they are. I haven't got in one scrap cause of it either! Makes Everyone around you either smile and giggle or put their heads down and cower away

Hey Bar

I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. Go the legal route, take them for all they have. Call the police every time you see their dog outside. Have the authorities alerted about their dog, viscious dogs like that are a danger to everyone and should be put down along with their owners.

Personally, I'd kill their dog and then them.
