Re: OT: Women of RS Thread

Our 85 yo neighbor fired Tommy from cutting her grass yesterday. I couldn't help but laugh. She our neighbors don't really like us because we keep to ourselves. They probably think we're doing some kind of illegal "big city" stuff in our house. Lol...especially since we mysteriously keep cutting and putting together pvc parts on our front porch. They don't know what the hell is going on.

I was seriously considering seeing if the neighbors were interested in being paid to keep quiet. I was having problems smoking with all that carrying on.

No. These bobos have been here as long as us...all the bobos. We have had one set of neighbors move. No family in that house yet.

So anyway housing comes out. They are going to be locking the water heater closet...meaning the neighbor won't be able to even get to their irrigation system. That's OK, their lawn is dead anyway. Why waste water. I was told, though, that I had the nicest yard in the neighborhood.

Good for you Becky...I like people that stand up for themselves and don't take any BS.....on occasion I'll let something slide...but I would not put up with a dead rabbit simply uncalled for.


I once had the inspection team tell me that I had the nicest barracks on base...man I cleaned like a champ back then..still do but it was allot more homey in there had bought some pictures and few potted plants...also stole the rug from the barracks over on the other side of us when they were renovating...let me tell you a whole carpet is heavy to carry by yourself. I felt like clemenza and Don Corleone in the Godfather Part II

MAN I hated those inspections. We lived in gov't housing twice -- actual apartments, there's very little CG owned housing, if there's even any left, for families -- and I'm not a slob *looks around expecting spousal disagreement* but I do NOT need some military paperpusher coming into my home and judging what he/she sees. Lemme tell you, it was a real good thign I was not there when we checked out of the first housing. The lady -- civilian BTW, made Mike scrub the bathroom. The toilet, specifically. I would have shoved the scrubbrush up her *edited for content*

Re: OT: Women of RS Thread

Guess what Kathy? Now you can pay for a CUC and you still have to scrub the toilet, floors...I was in the vicinity when the neighbors were scrubbing their dive. Pissing and moaning that they had to rent a steam cleaner for the carpet that was going to have to be replaced. I told them they didn't have to rent one...because they already owned one. For this place, I am going to be digging in my pockets for cash. The contractors put up the cheapest crap and as things break...anyway, I will be replacing every freakin blind.

This has nothing to do with dead bunnies thrown against houses, but it reminded me of my dad getting really mad at the doofus neighbors, whose dog would poo in our yard. Dad would take a shovel and throw the poo up against the neighbors house. Ha! Loce it.

Re: OT: Women of RS Thread

I ran across a website once that was a chronicle of stupid neighbors shenanigans. Chickens caged on the back deck, and other redneck hell antics.
Wish I could find it. It was hilarious.

Do you think Mike the Headless Chicken was kept on the back porch? I should track that thread down and bump it up so more people can see it.
lol
