Yes I'm drunk.
Yes I'm drinking
Yes I'm on my riding lawnmower
Yes I'm singing Never Tear Us Apart by INXS at the top of my lungs.
No you shouldn't be giving me the stink eye for it!
What are your neighbor stories? They can be good but... Good neighbors? That's an oxymoron unless you're talking about Fred Rogers.

my downstairs neighbor is a sweet nurse around my age who has an adorable mini dachsund
you either die the hero or live long enough to watch yourself become the villain
I had a hard time making out what he was saying most of the time, but I’m pretty sure he claimed to have cut a deer in half while going like 200km on his bike. I choose to believe this is true.
Best neighbour I ever had.
today I walked by the mailroom, and saw this message tacked to the bulletin board:
"Dear Neighbor who changed their wifi name to '[Escape Room Name] & Sex Dungeon':
We understand your point, and please know that this only happened one time.
We will send out an alert via the usual channels before it happens again.
Best,
Team [Escape Room]"
Twice.
It's not me! My neighbors are all crusty ol white people!
That sounds like something a crusty ol' white person would accuse someone else of being!
This is a strong possibility!
... I miss her.
My old apartment neighbors, this nice Mexican family, once were having a big family cookout in the parking lot and the mom gave me a freshmade tamale when I went outside for a smoke.
I've had some good neighbors. Roommates, on the other hand, trended mostly dogshit.

"Hi! Nice day today!"
"What are you planting? You know the soil here is really great. We got rhubarb growing and..."
"I'm still recovering from pneumonia. I was bedridden for weeks and got a huge bedsore on my bottom."
"Where's your cat? I saw her in your window. She's a tortoiseshell right?"
Listen neighbours you are lovely but please leave me alone.
I was talking to my mom on the phone and told her that everything was fine, but I was a little worried about my flashlight batteries because I didn't have any candles in the house.
About five minutes later, my neighbor knocked on my door and offered me a candle. Which was really nice, but also like damn, man. Can't you at least pretend we can't hear each other through the wall?
Does he want to sell you propane and propane accessories?
I mean, he's never offered.
I’ve got an umbilical hernia and probably shouldn’t be carrying heavy shit around, and I told him so.
He seemed cool about it and said he’d wait for another neighbour, but I’m not sure that he believed me.
Umbilical hernia... Oldest lie in the books
Besides, I’ve already had sepsis. You’re immune after you’ve had it once right? Like chicken pox or Ebola?
Your neighbors are all bears
@Garlic Bread
I got home one day and this guy was out in the hallway with about a dozen old portable televisions lined up against the wall outside his apartment door. He saw me and said hello, and I responded in kind while unlocking my door. He then motioned towards one of the new no smoking signs and said "You see this shit?". I said that I had indeed seen that shit.
"Welcome to Nazi Germany!", he declared loudly.
I nodded sagely and he then offered me my pick of any of the portable televisions that he had so lovingly arranged. I politely declined and retreated to my apartment.
*also pertinent to the grilled cheese discussion in the bad food thread. I didn't ask what would happen if I gave them $20.
BUT SOME OF US
DON'T KNOW WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY
on the other side is a contractor who is in the middle of a yelling and cussin' argument on the phone like, every time I see him. His daughter is adorable though. Her and her cousins always say hello to me when I walk past them. On one memorable occasion she drew what appeared to be a lower-case B in chalk and little kid loud whispered "do you know what this is? it. is. a. butt!" and ran away cackling
Hey dude just an fyi, in a lot of states that’s a dui offense you can definitely get arrested for
(If it’s a riding mower. In some states it doesn’t even have to be riding)
when they have the lawnmower race
Is that true? I grew up near a small town in Texas where a whole bunch of people visited each other on lawnmowers specifically to get around DUI laws!
Not that I suppose the three cops in town knew much about such a law, or would evenly enforce it if they knew.
I’ve heard about people getting nailed for it, yeah.
Looking into it briefly it looks like you have to be on a road, but not sure
Generally those laws are written to be very broad. Like “any self propelled vehicle”
