Miscellaneous: Today, I found out that my neighbors took it upon themselves...

By Pool-less - 04/09/2011 06:09 - United States

Today, I found out that my neighbors took it upon themselves to knock down the fence we shared, and putting up a new one. Thus fencing my pool into their yard. When I asked them why, he replied, "We thought you weren't coming back." I was gone for 4 months tending to my sister with breast cancer. FML

Today, my neighbor yelled at me because her two kids got into my pool. They scaled a two-meter wall to get to my backyard. They used a tree in her yard that hangs over the wall. I guess I could install razor wire on top of the wall. FML

Today, I went to check if my neighbours were home to return their dog, having looked after her for a few days. I looked in the window and the place was empty. They'd moved house and stuck us with their dog. FML

Today, I agreed to lend my daughter's inflatable pool to my neighbor for the day. Barely an hour later, I witnessed his son jump off their balcony, missing the pool by inches. He's now in hospital, and my neighbor has sworn to sue me, saying I'm responsible because the pool is mine. FML

Knock it down, boys

Today, I finished a fence around my house that I have been working on all week. About an hour after I finished, a water company truck pulled into my driveway. They told me they would have to take down my fence to make repairs on a water pipe. FML

Neighborhood watch

By TheAnnoyedNeighbor - 03/10/2011 06:08 - United States

Today, I came back home to find that my house had been robbed, one week after my neighbors. I was walking around my neighborhood to see if anything was suspicious, and discovered that my neighbors had put up a sign, reading: "Rob the neighbors, THEY don't have a security system." FML

Today, my neighbor called me on vacation to tell me that she let my mother into my house to feed my fish. I don't have fish, and my mother passed away 3 years ago. FML

They... essentially stole your pool...? This is just bizarre. In what universe would anyone, from any walk of life, think this is okay?

After OP's neighbors are done paying fines and lawsuits the amount they payed could have been used to bold their own pool.

Oh man, that's gotta suck for them. If OP has any sensibility at all he'll/she'll sue them for everything they're worth! Yup, the neighbor's did NOT think that one through...

This makes me seethe in rage. I had a similar situation where a neighbor didn't like our fence and wanted it taken down. It's on our property so she had no right to even suggest that. One day my ma was across the street at this cafe and saw a stranger go into our backyard and start measuring. When asked "The **** are YOU doing here?" he said "I'm taking this fence down." "No you're NOT this fence is on my property now get off my property before I call the cops" You have every right to knock that shit down. Even if the shared fence was more on their property line it does NOT give them the right to encroach on your turf. Light that bitch up.
