ok so I have some rather strange neighbours …
the one from hell was finally evicted yesterday but as she only took a couple of suitcases there will be a sequel to this ongoing drama!
And here is how one guy decorates his hunting vehicle …
yes, the bonnet reads … “You’re Next”
please share the weirdest thing you’ve seen or done?

Hi there. I am going around the neighborhood introducing myself. My name is Marc. My blog contains excerpts from my book The Driveway Rules. It contains memoirs about growing up with undiagnosed autism. I hope you stop by.

Do they have what is called in America, the Baker Act in your country? If so, I what be tempted to use it in such a situation.

In Florida, you can petition the local government to take action to remove an emotionally deranged person from your custody for immediate psychological treatment as I understand the Baker Act.

the weird male neighbour is NOT a problem … my post mustn’t be very clear … the neighbour from hell is a very disturbed woman … who likes to disturb us for 11-12 hours at a time 😦
Maybe he could seat her in his truck!

I did misunderstand, Kate, but never mind. The truck may come in useful in your context. Have a super weekend.

Wow. I’ve had strange neighbors but not one scratched a message in their car paint! We had a neighbor who loved to decorate for Halloween – complete with a real coffin. He’d leave it out for 3 weeks before and 3 weeks after Halloween… it was a little too creepy.

Interesting. My neighbors ignore me now or simply say “hi.” In WC, some of the people were jealous I don’t work, so I had to move. The management thought I was retarded and talked to me in a high pitched voice. I live in a huge apartment complex now, and we don’t have hallways. I know my neighbors, but we don’t bother each other.

Good Lord, Kate. Who is this guy, Mad Max?
I hope, for humanity’s sake, his comments about burying people only was a posture, but as another reader asked, who makes this into a light conversation topic with a virtual stranger? If he is telling the truth…shudder (from 10,000 miles away). When the news reporters interview you afterwards, at least you’ll have something a little less banal than, “He was unremarkable – I never suspected anything.”
Oh, Kate…I had no idea. Now that I do, though, what a relief they’re gone!

lol that was my first thought “Mad Max” when I saw his hunting ute … I was talking to my landlord and had to ask, so it’s been on my mind a while … then just had to share my horror 🙂
Oh he is still very much here, neighbour from hell is a SHE …

It’s a pity she got Das Boot. Otherwise, you could have played matchmaker.

And I’ve seen a lot of weird things…
Just one…on the doll theme…at Halloween a neighbor puts a mannequin standing next to a 2nd story window…it looks exactly like a person staring out down, out of the window and watching everyone. It’s freaky the first time you see it. Ha!

Wow! Riffing on the doll theme, our downstairs neighbour created a Barbie & Ken doll lakeside vignette on his balcony filled with intricate accessories, he and his partner were eventually evicted due to other unsavoury habits that were a fire hazard…my Dad moved into their suite after extensive renovations (they wrote life-size comments on the walls and barricaded their front door!). Needless to say, Dad was a much quieter neighbour, Lol!
