Today, the elderly couple next door asked me to cut down a tree in their yard. It turns out they told me to cut down the wrong tree, and I cut down the tree they got married under. They now hate me and tell me they plan to sue me for damage to property. FML

why didn't they direct you to the correct tree, or better yet, supervise the tree cutting?

Hope you learned a lesson, seriously always make sure the homeowner is actually the home owner and not a renter and always give them a can of bright orange paint to mark the trees they want down. BTW, I bet you have cursed their marriage now.

who would let anyone cut down anything without looking at what they were cutting first? just cuz they're elderly doesn't make them morons. sounds fishy.

They'll be me? A young, sane man? Why should I pity them then? =) I'm just messing. But "you'll be they" is the correct wording, unless you DO think they'll get younger.

old people are known to steal things, its a scientifically proven fact. why wouldnt they lie about the tree? they probably planned the whole thing to try and cash in on a lawsuit. I bet the old man has a gambling problem and is into a bookie for a few hundred thousand... the story about being married under that tree is a fabrication.
