We lived next door to a neighbor who would call the cops when we parked in the street. Once, when my parents were visiting, once, when we wanted to clean out the garage, We thought they were just picking on us, but found out they had called the police on our both of our neighbors across the street, for a visitor and a worker. This got to be a regular thing with them.
Some people would rather call the cops, (like a kid tattling to mama), instead of going talk to their neighbor or just helping them deal with a problem.
Agreed. We have one of those in my neighborhood too.
We had a family get together here a while back....and I have a large family, and live in a cul-de-sac in a tony golf course community.
Arrogant ass across the street chased a couple of the family (well, their cars) away from in front of his house. We have virtually no curb space here. There was no reason for it, and if any in his little clique had visitors park there.....NO problem.
Well....that pissed me off. I stalked out of the house...and this candyass who’s twice my size started to bolt towards his garage. I wound up putting a dent in the door of my own Suburban with my fist, I was so angry...and he saw it happen.
Never had a problem with him since.
Or mow. I'm with you on that, with the minor note that we don't know if anyone offered and she refused.
If she was so anxious to call her son, both at the house and in the jail, where was the son while the lawn was drying out?
