Miscellaneous, Neighbours and Football: Nice neighborhood you've got here

Nice neighborhood you've got here

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United Kingdom

Today, my neighbours kicked my football back over the fence. They'd slashed it and taped a note to the remains that said, "Do it again and it'll be your face." Now I'm scared to play football in my own backyard. FML

Today, my friend and I were playing football in the street, when out of nowhere a skinhead sucker-punched me in the gut, grabbed my football, and ran away, giggling like a maniac. FML

Today, the only thing that managed to get me out of bed was scrambling to watch my neighbours have a screaming match in the middle of our street, about which one of their brain-dead kids spray-painted "CUNT FLAPS" and a rudimentary knob on the communal garage door. FML

Headshot

Today, I was walking around in a park when I passed some kids playing soccer. One of them kicked the ball as hard as he could at me. Luckily, I caught the ball, then I drop-kicked it, intending to say, "Go get it." Instead, it bounced off a nearby tree and hit me in the face. FML

Today, I was sitting on a fence watching a friend play soccer. He accidentally kicked the ball at my face and made me fall off the fence into mud. I laughed it off and got back on the fence. Two seconds later he did the same exact thing. I fell wrong and slammed my face into the fence. Pain. FML

Just a prank, bro!

Today, I played a harmless joke on my neighbors by pointing a laser pointer out of my window onto their wall. Apparently, my neighbors don't take jokes lightly as one of the sons pointed at my window while screaming and swearing, then took out a gang bandana and wrapped it around his face. FML

Nice neighborhood

Today, my neighbor's sons decided it would be funny to throw rocks at my house. I went outside to scold them and saw my other neighbors gathered around, watching. They didn't stop them because they thought I wasn't home. FML

Run!

By Anonymous - 05/11/2011 01:21 - United States

Today, I was dared to walk home through a rough part of town. My rep hung in the balance, so I accepted. A kid kicked a football in my direction, so I kicked it back at him hard. It hit him in the nuts, and the next thing I know, I'm running for my life from three bald, shirtless, six-packed thugs. FML

Today, I accidentally hit someone's car while in the supermarket car park. I left a note, went shopping, and when I came back my windows were shattered, my tires were slashed, and "FUCK YOU" was written on my windshield. FML

Today, my neighbours watched and laughed as I chased my dog around the lawn, trying to rescue the only clean pair of underwear I had in my house. FML

Bring a shotgun out to your back yard and kick another one over the fence. Then wait...

Don't let them intimidate you. Hold your ground and do what you want in YOUR property. Their bark might be louder than their bite

The fake 'stache screams "My life is bro". I don't know if I like it... Or if I want to kick your shins.

do YOU want to test that theory?? because I certainly don't want to lose my face and I get the feeling that OP likes theirs too.

actually just because it's "YOUR" property doesn't mean you can do whatever you like on it. You have to get council permission to build structures any larger than a certain size. You're not allowed to have excessive noise and can have police demand you reduce the noise. And seeing as the OP was kicking a ball INTO THE NEIGHBOUR'S YARD, where it is NOT his property, the point is moot anyway.

It's your property, you can do whatever you want. If something goes into their yard, I'm pretty sure they have no right to do things like slashing your property and destroying it. Plus they threatened you. If you feel uncomfortable, you should go tell someone or an authoritative figure.

Well, if OP can do what he likes on his property, then that suggests that the neighbours can do what they like on their property - such as slash OP's football...
