So at our last place in NY, we had pretty good neighbors except for the one guy about 4 doors down that sold tons of dope and had lots of shady people rolling in and out of our dead end neighborhood. One of our neighbors there we actually became really good friends with and had dinner with them at least once a week and we hung out and drank with them at least a few times a week too. Now at our new place, I have one neighbor across the road that is really cool, but the rest won't even wave back when you drive by. It's kinda strange. On the other side of the cool neighbor behind our house, I've got a guy that walks out his garage door, pulls his pants down to his knees, and pisses in his driveway multiple times a day. This is in plain view, not exactly low key. My wife texted me the other week when she first saw him and I didn't want to believe it, but yesterday I was walking the dog in the back yard and there he was 50 yards away pissing in the driveway with his pants down like a 1st grader at the urinal for the first time. He must have realized I was there when he was about mid stream, and never slowed down or stopped. He also shook it waaaay too many times for normal. I'm not even sure what to do about this guy if anything. Anyone else have a strange neighbor story to share?
Until about a year ago I never had a neighbor. Before I moved in though, one of the 3 neighbors on my rural road was all doped up and stuck a pitch fork through another neighbor's cat. He has since cleaned up and seems like a pretty nice guy.....if you aren't a cat.
I'm lucky in that I have some pretty quiet and good neighbors. Ironically, the only neighbors I don't care for live right next door (we're separated visually from a row of spruces). Luckily, we all have 1.5-3 acre lots so we're not stacked on top of each other, but I just don't really like the guy. He lives on 1.5 acres, but thinks he lives on 100. He has free range chickens that range into my yard and dig up my landscaping and crap all over the place. He has three dogs now, two being yippy small rat-like things. He evidently doesn't believe in fences (underground or traditional) and is the only one in the neighborhood to let his dogs run rampant. They're crapping in my yard, digging up the landscaping, etc., etc. We're going to have a discussion this spring, though once the animals come out. Small problems for the most part, but I hate neighbors in general which is why I need to find land:D
I think I was always the weird neighbor. :D No peeing in the yard tho'. At our last place we had arrow and bow holders attached to the deck so we could just shoot from the deck. Targets in the yard. A ladder stand to shoot from. We also regularly shot rabbits/sparrows/starlings from various shooting portals in the house. (some people call them windows) Right up until we decided to move, we had 130 chickens. At one point we had seven dogs. Most of our neighbors didn't know we had any dogs and only our closest neighbors (all of them more than 100+ yards away) knew we had chickens.
The first two times (months apart) that the propane guy came to deliver propane, I was out in the field/garden, digging big holes with a lumpy, bulgy, bloody garbage bag and bloody axe next to me. I would wave (with blood stained rubber gloved hand) but for some reason that guy was always nervous and in a hurry when he had to deliver to our place. I was just burying big carp... had to hack them apart first.
For some reason our neighbors don't think they should use their drive way. They just drive through their yard with SUV and trucks. I guess it is their yard though. Sent using Tapatalk!
I have good neighbors. They know I have more guns, bows and knifes then all of them combined. They know I like using them and killing stuff. We get along just fine !! Tim
The first morning we lived in the house I woke up to the sound of turkeys in my yard. With a turkey tag in hand I figured I would stick one. I slowly open the door with bow in hand just about to come to full draw when I see my neighbor taking pictures of the turkeys. I just closed the door, My house is in a subdivision on 3/4 of an acre. She never trusted me, I was happy to see her move.
The neighbor directly across the street asked if I was a Cyclone (Iowa State) or Hawkeye (U of Iowa) fan. I said "I grew up 15 miles from Kinnick Stadium and am a Hawkeye Fan when the two play. Other than that, I support both. They won't even acknowledge we exist now, even if we check our mailboxes at the same time (the mailboxes are next to each other in my front yard). Another is in the Army and does not like us because I retired from the Air Force not the Army and won't even return a wave. The rest of the neighbors are nice once we approached them and introduced ourselves.
I also like to pee outside. But there is a time and a place and a suburban neighborhood facing the road isn't it. And who pulls their pants to their knees to pee? I swear I'm not making that part up either.
