View Full Version : Crazy Neighbors

So I need to rant about the new neighbors I have living next door to me...
There are constantly people over at their house...I mean like 6-8 cars per day....that's not really my problem though...my problem is that all of those cars use my driveway to turn around in when they're leaving my street. SO...about 15-20 times per day/afternoon/night/...somebody's using my driveway to turn around in.
Today I was backing out of my garage, and as I'm backing out I look behind me, and somebody's pulling in...so we almost crash.
What bugs me most is that they HAVE a driveway...why can't they just use their own? Furthermore...my neighborhood is one big circle...they could just go out that way.
I just feel like it's getting to the point where it's rude and inconsiderate. I realize that everyone turns around in other people's driveways from time to time...but this is just over the top.
So....do you think I have a right to be upset about this or am I over-reacting? It's not like I'm losing sleep over it or anything ;) It's just something that's annoying me.
P.S-Anyone else have bastardly neighbors they care to talk about? :D
It would be slightly annoying to you but I would put up some sort of small gate or a rope that you take down each time you leave or enter your driveway until they at least get the hint. Either that or a "No Turning" sign etc. I had that same problem at one point until we went with the small gate scenario.

Yeah, I've actually thought about that...or putting spikes down;) muahahahah.
I really just don't want to start any problems...but it might be time to take action.

The only neighbors I cant stand is the Goddamned Mariachi band that lives across the street.:mad: OHHHH they piss me off.
LMAO. Yeah, well that's the thing. I'll be watching movies or something at night, and at least 4 times during the movie headlights are blaring thru my windows...even worse, while I'm sleeping...the noise wakes me up b/c my windows are open in the summer.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. :(
My biggest problem that I had with it when it was going on at my place was that I always thought some unannounced company had shown up. I mean, no matter how many times it happened I always thought someone was there.

Do you have any menacing looking men in your life? My aunt had the same problem....my dad, who can be quite evil looking if he wants to, talked to the neighbours...problem solved!:D

This is what you should do, smear Karo syrup with red food coloring all over your face and make sure to put plenty on your clothes.
When they pull into the drive run out the door screaming bloody murder. Something to the effect -THEYRE ALL DEAD THEYRE ALL DEAD-run up to the car and jump on the hood and scream hysterically through the winshield.
It helps if you can splash a little blood on the window, or if the driver or passenger window is open, splash a little on their faces. Make sure you warm the Karo in the microwave, careful dont get burned.
MMMMMMMMM warm blood
That ought to get them to stop that shit. Or leave your car at the end of the driveway for a few days, that usually gives them the message.

I have a 17 year old psycho living next to me....he is always yelling obscenities at his mother and father. I think they are afraid of him. They fight all the time, sometimes at three or four in the morning, and very loudly. I almost had to call the police one night. I really don't want to do that, I would prefer they handle it themselves. Problem is I'm kind of scared of him too....LOL.

Oh wait, you could run around the yard in circles carrying an axe yelling "Stop moving, this will only take a second!" Then maybe he'll think his life isnt that bad.:D
Hmmmmmmm......good plan.....then the whole neighborhood will think I am the one that is insane and I won't have to deal with any of them ever again. I like this....:p

LMAO!! That would probably do the trick ;)
I've thought about doing the car thing...but I'm afraid that they're so used to using my driveway, they wouldn't even see the car and they'd just plow through it...I get the impression that when they're leaving at 3 AM they're a little...drunk...so, I'm not sure I want to subject my poor civic to that :p

Yikes. Yeah....I really don't want to start problems either, or make enemies...but I feel like they're asking for it ;)
I'm really easy going and laid back, but for some reason it's just really getting under my skin...I guess it's just the general impoliteness of it all.

Here's what you do...
Hire me for five dollars and I'll sit in your driveway in full chainmail armor, holding a giant broad sword. Once they pull into the driveway I'll just start screeching like a woman and waving this sword around.
If that doesn't work... uh... just buy a gun and start shooting.

LOL...I wouldn't even care if it didn't work, it'd be worth it just to see you do that...I think I'd even pay more than $5 just to see it....like $5.25 :p

LOL...I'm hoping that THEY move actually...seems like they're just a bunch of college students, so it doesn't look like it's going to be a permanent thing...I get the impression mommy and daddy are renting the house for them ;)
