  • Folks, this is a little different than most of our videos, but subscriber Chris W asked if we had any formula's for getting rid of annoying neighbors, so I decided to tell you our annoying neighbor story and how we took care of it with a crayon. Enjoy!

    There are people in this world that love conflict. Even when you mind your business, they find a way to disrupt your peace. You handled this better than I would have. I would still get a few cameras just incase.

      Not only that, but the worst part is when you do mind your own business...they will spread lies about you that are not true and next thing you know the other neighbors act differently around you
      I know it sucks, but i can totally relate to what you're saying and this is what I am dealing with right now

    Early in our marriage, we visited my mother-in-law. I found her so overbearing, difficult and so on. I had a hunch that she was snooping in our suitcase. When we went out for a walk, I left a paper saying,” HI HELEN!”

      My mother in law was so mean my husband stopped taking us. She excused me of stealing money and food from the surplus I would get. She was going to move and wanted me to pay her money for a sewing machine she gave me. My husband said to go throw it on her porch. I couldn’t I went and gave it back to her. It was the last time we saw her until her funeral.

The spiritual fruit inspectors of others are terrified facts will be revealed. They have ostracisized their siblings from communication. And they can't understand why their own siblings won't talk to them. Yup, there ARE people like this. Brothers united & freed! Sure wished they'd have done this sooner.:0)

      I have a situation where a neighbor, an old lady that whenever she walks in front of my place, she leans on my micro garden and pinch my basils, always stealing my basils, one day I told her: "NO!" She got very mad. And she has her own micro garden too, why on earth she stares at my stuff and take it. Get your own. I can't stand people like that. Rude, disrespectful, entitled. She has nice clothes, have a good life, she has free rent where lives with the daughter and son in law, and coming to my micro garden and stealing from a hard worker that pays for everything. Give me a break. And she keeps staring at my garden, being noisy, and one day she stopped in front of my garden and in front of my kitchen window and staring, like she is checking if I am home and not seeing her, and then I stood up and started cleaning my throat to tell her, hinting her: "I saw you, get out, get lost, entitled" and she left. I feel like to put a camera that talks to her: "It's rude staring, you don't have business here, bug off!"

    I did something like this when I worked loss prevention. An unknown employee stole a new girls iPhone8+ and hid it somewhere in the store to avoid a bag check and pick it up later. I knew it was in the store still so after I spent an hour looking for it I found it behind some boxes in a stock room. I replaced the expensive phone with a note that said "Turn around and SMILE, you're fired. ;) ". On the wall behind her I had put up a camera (fake). When the thief left in the middle of her shift the next day we knew who did it.

    I love it. We had a neighbor who let their dog out to go potty on my front yard. I kept telling them and they just ignore me. So finally I picked up the poop with a plastic bag, hung it on a hanger with a nice polite note with my marker and paper. That was 10 years ago when we first move in our home. They never let their dog out and they moved out after a couple of years ago.
    We also have a neighbor who moved in our neighborhood. They would play basketball and make a huge mess and they would hit our cars, we live in a court street. So we talked to them nicely and nothing. Oh they love kittens and 4 kittens would come around our front porch and my kids love to pet them. They even accused us stealing their cats. So I told them we don’t want to steal them because they are not declaw and no vaccines. They would always be mad because of that. So last Christmas I told my kids to make cards and make presents for them and ever since they have been nice to us.

      Demo Unit Hello Demo, although I see you point, I must respectfully disagree with you. I believe that politicians beco.e what we WANT them to become. Case in point, nearly every politician that has spoken truthfully, has lost; reason being is that almost everyone wants all these promises, but does not want to pay for them. Politicians can be the most truthful people in our society, if we demand that of them...if we elected the honest ones, that would start a trend. All they are is a reflection of our society. Everyone wants tax cuts and more benefits...Any politician who goes against these tenets will never get elected.

Once I saw their actions through the election, and continuing to this day, against President Trump...he painted such a clear picture of them, coupled with Twitter (which you mention as well), I agree with you, politics will never be the same. After President Trump's historic meeting with Kim Jung Un, I was appalled with the line of questions from George Stephanopoulos. So far, I have to give Trump very high marks. Although I am dead against his ideas on immigration and a few other issues...what you said about the best ideas coming to the surface, giving the little guy at least a small chance. Heck, Dennis Rodman did more for peace with North Korea than the Bushs and the Clintons.

    You neighbor is worried about security cameras because of his disability claim. If a security footage showed him up and about on your property when in fact his claim may be stating he is immobilized, then he could 1) loose all his benefits and 2) subject to a court hearing that may require him to return monies he collected in the past and possibly a sentence if he were proved fraudulent. It’s a lot to loose for him.

Opened it and BOOM I'm face to face with him. Talk about scare the living shit out of me. He was harmless and didn't even know what he was doing. Used to be his parents farm. I kept telling him you don't know how bad this could have went, come on you got to go home now. I still can't recall if I heard a noise or if it was the breathing behind the door. Straight up horror movie. He stood there with a frozen face like stone. No emotion no nothing.

For example, he might've put up no trespassing signs and then left the property, so the bully might think you won't see trespassing, but they don't know you have cameras.

    In 4th Grade my son had a teacher who was very mean to him. He would come home and complain - and I would simply tell him - YES - that sounds very unfair - but son - you will have to deal with people like this in your grown up life - so keep telling me about the things this teacher is doing - because son it sounds like these things are not educational or fare to little kids. Then one day my son and I were at the batting cages and another Mom walked up and expressed impressive performance of my son - we struck up a conversation and she got around to asking me were my son was in school - I told her - she asked if we had Ms. Waters - I told her yes - she asked how we liked her - I told her well I don't want to get in a law suit with her. The Mom then went into a laundry list of how her son was treated by her. I thanked her and told her - she gave me a good idea. The teacher always gave them ten spelling words on Friday and Monday they were to turn in 10 sentences using the spelling words. So that weekend - our sentences reflected all the mean things this teacher had done to my son that he had reported to me. The mean crap stopped - and we no longer had the sentence part of the spelling words on weekends. Funny how the truth prevails over evil bullies.

    He'd lecture me about my dog.. I'd be lecturing him about ownership of property and for him not to be on it.. But yeah.. my father served in WWII, and when he returned he thought he was going to be a pig farmer, but he couldn't even take their life.. they became pets.. so were the chickens.. and the guineas.. :) Birds would flock and sit next to him, and built nests inside his smokehouse.. he could run his tools, but they were never afraid of him.. He'd talk to the mama birds..

      I teared up. Sounds like your father raised his children well. It’s odd how veterans returning from their various outconus hells say quietly but with steely conviction words (in essence) like Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce said,
      “I will fight no more forever”.

      I could recount so many of his stories to you... He and his outfit as he called it, traipsed across Europe by the skin of their teeth since their landing.. The one thing I always had to assure him of before he passed was that God would forgive him for everything he did in the war.. Just a good ole country boy.. a boy who went there and came back a man.. Him and all his brothers including twin returned.. one not so good emotionally.. From finding love in England to having to leave her there..to witnessing men hanging from trees from a failed jump.. massacred U.S. soldiers by Nazi troops.. to taking a crane through the middle of France just to see the Eiffel Tower and nearly being court-martialed.. to grieving over two fellow soldiers who committed suicide before they made it back home (they were found out to be gay) so as to spare their families humiliation survivor benefits would be distributed and avoid chemical experiments in prison.. so many stories.. I loved that man with all my being.. the gentlest creature on the face of the earth.. he never cussed anyone.. Only three times I ever witness him cry.. suicide of his eldest brother.. the death of my mother.. and talking about the two men who should've been able to come home, no matter who they loved.

    Hey, Hope this finds you and yours very well brother. First off, thank you for what you've done for us as a nation.
    At 63 I had never served and do carry a sense of betrayal to those who had over the American Centuries.
    You dealt with that troubled fellow very well with and with enviable patience born of your considerable experiences overseas. You've endured conflict in ways people like me could never imagine and so many again, like me do appreciate the strengths of your contributions over ours.
    Be blessed my friend, enjoy your family, life, land and watching the morning haze being chased from your fields the morning sun..... That's the best morning cup of coffee!

    I really enjoyed this especially when you got off topic. It is good to think outside the box with remedies like this. I had a girl at work that was on my case frequently. One day I was told "You know you will eventually have to face this situation". Well I really did some praying and came up with a solution. The next time she jumped me about something I said "I wish you would get a life and get out of mine I am just someone your work with". That was all it took.

    I am sincerely sorry that you had to put up with this mess. I'm from the Carolinas but have called Texas my home for the past 25 years. I'm still the new guy albeit I own one of the bigger farms in East Texas and I have a cabin on the place and I allow my sons, and my police, fire and veteran friends to hunt and stay in the cabin for free year round. And I had a neighbor like that. Wish I had your patience. When the bully neighbor thought it would be cool to intimidate my youngest son (15y at the time) and even went so far as to lay hands on him, I grabbed my dog (Belg Mal) and went looking for him. My dog is trained and quiet. We found him setting up a tree stand on my property. Yep, got into an argument with him. Yep, he raised his voice to me and yep, he took his finger and poked me in the chest to make a point. My dog didn't like that. My neighbor learnt fear that afternoon. My dog never bit him. He wouldn't do that unless I told him to. But my neighbor didn't know that. It's been maybe 5 years since we've seen him too. Oh, I've seen him around town but he stays clear. Bullies are the same everywhere.

      They're not bullies, they're "COWARDLY BULLIES"!!! You also have restraint, personally I would have let the dog at him at least the first time. If I could prove I did nothing wrong, that is exactly what these low-lives deserve because if they act this way with a person, lord knows what else they are doing-probably torturing animals. You're a better man than me!

    Good for you. In my past i had a terrifying experience with a past husband and he would call making threats and such and it terrified my mother and sisters and me. I talked to police (before cell internet) they told me when he called the next time to click on the receiver a couple time not to hang up but then to say, while he was still on the phone, did you get all that officer..... My husband hung up and that ended all those terrible frighting calls. One bad situation resolved, but it was so bad my brother was gioing to come from another state to help protect us..but he did not have to after that last call. I wish that was the last of my worries, but as you see i did make it through all the difficult situations, praise God. Thank you for sharing your experience...

      Just like half this country...and 99 out of 100 miscreants where I (sadly) live - NY! My husband & I saved enough to buy our home, 8 years ago - NY real estate is obscenely overpriced, as are the taxes. The first day we moved in, I had the misfortune to meet my loud-mouthed, illiterate neighbor, her boyfriend (she'd been thru' a couple, before she finally moved) & her not-too-bright, unruly, but basically good kids. Within the first 10 minutes of conversation, I learned she was receiving food stamps (EBT card) and her 2 teenaged girls were on SSI, for being learning disabled. Because she saved all that money on food & the govt (my husband, I & the other neighbors) was paying her mortgage, I got to watch her go shopping twice a week & even got stuck signing for her FedEx packages from Bloomingdales & Macy's, until I told the poor delivery guy I wasn't willing, any longer. Her last boyfriend got into a car accident (with his ESCALADE) and wound up with a hefty settlement...funny how parasitic trash ALWAYS finds a way to win a lawsuit...and he & my welfare trash neighbor bought a huge house, not too far away, with an inground pool! haha It seems like THEY'RE the smart ones - they live the good life while people like us work our fingers to the bone & pay the bills...ours AND theirs. Welfare recipients used to be embarrassed - when my Pop split from my Mother, she was on it for a short while, when I was little, but we were embarrassed. It's what got us OFF of it so fast!!
