    I was so afraid of getting some crazy boomer like this when I bought my new house. Thankfully they all seem lovely thus far 🤞

    It’s funny I was just talking to my oldest, who said “I never feel more like a middle aged Karen than when I have to call the non emergency police line about something going on” and I said “I don’t know how I didn’t manage to raise you with a healthy fear of the police. I have called them once only.”

    I remember what I called them about, too. The police helicopter was circling and circling and the baby (same one who is the woman in the comment above) kept crying because she couldn’t sleep, I called 911, asked for the non emergency #, called and asked what the heck was going on, told them if they were chasing someone they had lost them. They put me on hold then came back and said it was training! I told them it had been hours and my kid couldn’t sleep. It did end soon after (probably nothing to do with my call) and hopefully at least let them know it was problematic.

    All the trees leafs falled into my lawn and know I need to rake it

    All the trees tree’s leafs leaves falled fell into onto my lawn and know now I need to rake it

    That hurt to read. Please encourage your children and neighbors to learn how to read and write. You can’t even blame autocorrect because neither leafs nor falled are words in English.

      Also, “i have to rake it”. Do you though? What did the Earth do for the millions of years before we came along with our goddamned rakes? Just a global flood of leaves, I guess.

    This is the first time I’ve seen a red circle without knowing what it’s supposed to be indicating. It centers on the number of shares??

    Dumb top reply considering all of their complaints are about stuff that is not contained to the neighbors property, except the google fiber thing which is just bizarre.

    As soon as you’re making other people smell or hear something you’re making it their business.

    All noise pollution defenders deserve to never hear their own choice of music without someone else’s bassline cutting through it.

    Should contact the FCC about theír illegal solicitation of being the first neighborhood to get Google fiber?

    Fake rage bait 🤷‍♂️

    On Halloween they were passing out candy AND ALCOHOL

    My sister and her husband pass out cotton candy for the kids and cocktails for the parents on Halloween. They are the favorite house on many people’s trick-or-treat route. They’ve done it for so long that kids that grew up in the area are grown and excited to bring their own children to their house.

      I find the same thing with cigarettes tbh. I wouldn’t mind my neighbour doing it if she didn’t smoke my old brand, though…

      Not that I’d ever say anything

      I think it smells heavenly, so that’s subjective. I’d probably get along better with my neighbors if they were smokers.

      … Why are you defending Karen anyway??

      I mean, I do have a neighbor that does rev his bike under my bedroom window and listens to loud music a lot. It kind of gets you at some point.

        Yeah but like…would you consider having a normal adult conversation with them about it before calling in the police?

          I didn’t call the police and I had a conversation which lead to a worse behavior for a time. I just ignore them now, but they’re still a nuisance. And I am talking about a 40 year old man, not some adolescent…

            Right on, sounds like you did the right thing. fwiw, I figured as much…my comment was more a commentary on the FB/Nextdoor post from OP.

            Sorry about your luck, I’m sure most of us have had bad neighbors at some point, I know I sure have. It’s such a bummer too because it imposes on your sanctuary of home. Doubly so when it’s a grown-assed man acting like a petulant teenager. Hope things mellow out for you in the near future fellow lemming

    I know this is not the point of this but raking (and mowing) lawns needs to stop being a thing. It’s bad for the lawn, the plants around, the essential bugs, and bad for the environment. Even aesthetically, it looks bland and stupid.
