  • Is my neighbor a judgmental misanthrope?

    We moved into a new house 6 months ago and couldn’t wait to start sprucing it up. It came to our attention that a neighbor, Derek I think his name is, was less than impressed with our efforts…even going so far as to whinge about it online to a bunch of complete strangers!

    Not long after, following a hard day’s DIY, I treated myself to a little bifta…just to wind down. Some like a glass of wine or a beer (don’t touch alcohol myself) I prefer my medicine as Jah intended! But lo and behold, old Derek’s up to his tricks, sticking his beak into my business and posting about it online again! What is this guy’s problem?

    I could overlook the above and pass it off as ‘a bit wierd’ but now I find out that he’s taking an unhealthy interest in when my two underage daughters are at home alone. WTF?! Seriously….I’ve a good mind to get in touch with Operation Yewtree.

    I’d be cautious if I were you. He’s got guns… 😯

    Do not start farting, or Derek will have a fit! And will most probably contact……the internet police!

    Just make sure your bar ends are plugged

    It is right to nip this type of negligent behaviour in the bud – it’s a slippery slope.

    Today it’s just leaving kids alone in the house, but before you know it those people will riding bikes without bothering to install bar end plugs.

    Woahhhhhhh.
    Forget the house renovation stuff. A knock on the door and a heads up would gave been my tact but hey.
    Smoking class Bs in the back garden with kids in house. Okay. I have a red wine or three (but it’s legal).
    Leaving two under 15 yo girls at home for two nights. Not my call but I think it’s wrong.

    Two weeks ago father burst into 14 yo’s bedroom and called her an efffing tw@@ and an effing nob head as she’d spilled something on the carpet. It was loud. And very, very aggressive. We have thin walls and her bedroom is next to ours. That’s how I know. I’m not nosey. I’m pissed off with the noise and vibe and concerned that it may escalate.

    That is all.

    Derek,

    I’ll put it to you again…
    Have you spoken to your neighbours face to face, or do you think airing all of this on a mountain bike forum will make it all go away?

    If it was me having my private life plastered all over a public forum I would not be best pleased.

    Just saying like…

    7/10 good effort OP.

    Some people really need a hobby.

    So, from my tedious and futile ranting on here, you know who my neighbours are and I have compromised their privacy?

    Do you work at GCHQ?
