those people are such assholes. i'd rather have breakfast with 10 loud chewers than have breakfast with them.
they're all "ooh we have nice people over and do sing-alongs and use cloth shopping bags and we belong to the neighborhood committee" and yet they never never never even acknowledge their actual neighbors.
except, that is, the day the man came snooping around to see what i was painting (though he didn't even care once he found out), and then it came out that he thought i'd just moved in. 12 years, dickhead. i've lived here 12 fucking years you self-involved prisspot.

take a deep breath and do your best not to bludgeon your neighbor to death with his own "welcome friends" door plaque.
I don't have any hard feelings toward the type of neighbors who have very little interaction with you because they're intensely private/shy. but these people sound like the smuggest, most self-congratulatory bastahds on earth, so I feel for you.

yes, ur, that's exactly what they are. well stated.
t, if they got booby trapped one of their song-singing friends would probably organize some motherfucking goddamn candle-in-the-window/flag-at-half-mast/potluck-at-the-turnaround kind of bullshit, so best leave them to their healthy tediousness, i think.

i am outraged, on account of the terrible guy referenced above. he moved to a new office (which is wonderful), but before leaving he sent a gushing email about how there was such a surplus in the coffee fund, so there was $100 worth of coffee/sugar/creamer and coffee would be free for the foreseeable future. then he abolished the coffee donation program and jacked almost all of the supplies when he left.
my blood is boiling.

― lxy, Wednesday, 30 May 2012 16:27 (twelve years ago) link
i would chase him
chase him to his stupid new office, then yell at him, and steal back the coffee supplies, although technically it wouldn't be stealing bc they are not his.

Defendant was convicted of bastardy. The Criminal Court of Baltimore, S. Ralph Warnken, J., entered judgment adverse to defendant, and he appealed. The Court of Appeals, Hammond, J., held that where Criminal Court could properly have found, as it did, from evidence of witnesses other than mother of child and her husband that mother and her husband did not have intercourse at time when, under the laws of nature, the child must have been conceived, mother was competent to testify that she had had relations with defendant, that he was the father of the child, what he said and did after he knew that she was pregnant, and her reasons and her husband's reasons for marrying.
