    geebus, just got a hate letter from a neighbour in my mailbox, not against me but against my really nice Asian neighbour who does furniture making as a hobby. ( he occasionally uses power tools but not often, maybe a few times a week and only for a few minutes ) Coward didn’t even sign their name. Hate letter that didn’t sign their name or implicitly asked for specific action, just did rumour mongering and appeals to self interest.

        I sniggered when they mentioned they had gone to the police but the police did nothing!!

        Of course they didn’t you racist fuck, the neighbour is doing nothing wrong or illegal.

          I’ve had a neighbour try to report me to the police for having long grass/messy yard.

          Bish, I’m disabled and you’re the reason I’ve been too scared to go out there to fix it

          Bonus: They hung over a high fence to take the pictures so it’s not like they would even see it unless trying to

      My old next door neighbour who was elderly and had way too much time on her hands im pretty sure left me multiple letters in my letterbox while she was living there.

      I remember getting one telling me to turn down my tv/movie volume at night and telling me to mow the lawn.

      Of course none of them were signed either but you could tell it just had to be her.

      Not sure what’s worse. The notes in the letterbox or the passive aggressiveness of you meet face to face.

      Glad she eventually moved out when she couldn’t look after herself anymore.

        Huh. Back in my Brunswick E. days, I had the TV too loud one night and my neighbors politely asked me to turn it down. Which, of course I did. Because we are all grown-ups.

        I never had the note experience. I think I’d just chuck it and ignore it. I honestly don’t know what I’d do with it. “What is this high school shit?”

      Ugh, crazy/malicious neighbours are the worst. Be careful and avoid that one as they tend to target multiple people.

      Especially if they try to get you to join them in bullying someone else but you refuse
