OT - I AM PISSED!!! (foul language warning & rather long)

Thanks, sweetie.  Once I get some of this adrenaline out of my system, I'm sure I'll find some positive way to look at this whole deal...

Im so sorry....  but you go girl.. she deserved every F'ing heimer you gave her!


Now... being not nice and not christian like  :)

Go out at night... get some bleach and pour it to right ***** in her grass............ or take the bleach to her fave tree's. or flowers etc and give um a big drink.

Ooooooooooooo thats so mean... < evil laugh >

Im sorry...bad neighbors can really make your day to day life awful.

Hugs honey!

I don't have it in me to retaliate, all my energy went into my controled RAGE at her front door!  Fortunately, she's rarely outside, keeps all her shades down, and keeps totally to herself when she IS out.  I've tried to greet her too many times to count, she just ignores me.  Her loss.

Hey Darla~
Revenge is just a momentary pleasure that could have longer-lasting repercussions. (Like legal ones if things get out of hand.)

I'm glad that you vented--now take a DEEEP breath and let it out SLOOOWLY. Do this several times until you get light-headed--and enjoy that little tiny buzz. 

Nope--that dame ain't worth the angst she's causing you.  And ***** that she appears to be, she does have the right to ban your kids from 'trespassing'.   And  I totally agree with the others--her going ballistic is probably a symptom of something bigger and out of control in her life.  This is YOUR chance to show her that you're the BETTER person. (I was gonna say BIGGER person, but with your height...) Forgive and forgive--you probably won't forget.)  

Here's a chance for your kids to get some exercise and fresh air in the morning. That's the only positive thing I can think of from this episode, but more might come.

 Have a wonderful weekend!  

And I'm off to my wonderful minimum wage job! (But my supervisors are good.  And did I tell you  I can get a 10% EMPLOYEE DISCOUNT  here?? OOOOH baby!!)  Yup-- I know I did--just TRYING to be funny.)

(((HUGS)) and  
**SUE**

Yeah, like I said, I don't have it in me to retaliate.  Nor do I want to set that kind of example for my kids.  This will pass, we'll continue on with our lives, the kids will have to leave a little earlier and walk a little further every morning.  It's only an inconvenience.

The only "retaliation" I can see happening will come when the kids get asked WHY they're walking all the way around to the bus stop.  (and I have NO DOUBT they will be asked, in OUR everyone-knows-everything-about-everyone kind of neighborhood!)  They'll tell the truth, and the word will get out HONESTLY and INNOCENTLY about the kind of person Jo is. 

I agree with Rickpete about the fertilizer.  I think that all of us, your OH buddies, should help you get your revenge.  I suggest that we all go out to the stores this weekend and look for the absolute TACKIEST lawn decoration that we can find - then we all give our donation to Darla who can display them in her yard so that her neighbor, every day, has to look at Darla's tacky back yard decorations.  I think that we should also go to some photo studio and have a picture of Darla's kids taken with all of their school gear on - we can get a life size cutout of them and put it right on the border between the two properties.

I love the poop idea too, but that might be illegal and I'm always too chicken about getting into trouble.

Yeah, that would probably backfire, too!  I can refer to myself as "trailer trash" when appropriate - but I don't want to give my neighbors any reason to label me as such because of my lawn decor!!

WTF   is right......  You should have a block party all night long with all your neighbors  (except her you know she wouldn't come anyway) and live it up be as loud as you can for as long as you can.....  Have the children run and play,  play loud music, and just have a good ole time.....   The kids could have races right next to the property line,  then you can all scream and carry on when they win...... Man ole ladies really make me mad....... How rude after all this time now it's an issue.  Is there like a border line that the kids can walk on to get across, like another house next to hers that they can walk on there lawn but right next to her side?????????????????? No fricken wonder her hubby left her......... I will come with all my daycare kids and let them loose then we will see what she says...... they will all whoop her azzzzzzzz......... I hope she knows how ugly she is and how rude she is........  I don't know where the heck i was going with all this but anyway have a great day.......  Let me know when the block party is I will be there...........

It's tempting, Marsha!  But the vampire stays in her house 97.3% of the time, shades usually pulled down & all...   

Good Lord - something just occured to me!  Now that I've shared this here, and so many of you fine folks have shared your "ideas" with me, do I DARE have a bonfire come October???

 - y'all might get me in some SERIOUS trouble!!!

Ok, besides the fact that revenge is sweet, I think we (your friends) need to come up with the best revenge possible.  And I'll tell you, the poop thing certainly is at the top of my list.  Sure, we shoudn't need to lower ourselves and do things that aren't appropriate.  But WTF!  She irked everyone and its time that her princess, poop-less butt get kicked down off her pedestal and right into a pile of poop.  Maybe her problem with dog poop comes from a deeper problem she has - obsession with feces.  Was she by any chance arrested in St Paul this week for throwing bodily fluids at cops?

Now, the very mean part of me would do countless things just to tick her off.  Yet not so obvious that it was coming from me.  There is a website out there that is "Worlds Worst Neighbor" or something like that.  You can post a comment about people who live in your neighborhood.  So when potential buyers read what the neighborhoods are really like, then perhaps that will deter a sale of a home.  Heck, I'd be sure that my kids would go to almost the end of the street - but still on her lawn - and walk across there.  Aren't the lower parts of your lawn owned by the city anyway?

The best - which I'm very tempted to do to my own neighbor, is to get total vegetation killer (in a spray bottle) and spell out a nasty word in the lawn.  Then, as the grass dies, the word becomes very obvious.  And they can't get rid of it unless they kill all of their grass.  Or, you can always use food coloring to spell out a message in the snow.

hahahahaha.....  What a BIOTCH!
