I know that feeling. Sometimes I ask myself, was that third fountain out front of the great house really necessary? And I think yes, since I already had the nightscaping done to highlight a fountain, it was.
Just sent an email to nextdoor to create me an account as I couldn't since our neighborhood is new. Looking forward to seeing what goes on in this place and sharing with my TMB brethren.
I created an account and now my wife and I send dirty private messages to each other like we're having an affair with a neighbor. This is exciting for a married guy...
cant you create your neighborhood group or something? seems like i remember when one of our neighbors started ours
My neighbor and I had a dispute that reminds me of this. Apparently, my cat injured his dog. He came over to my house to tell me of this, I laughed. He then proceeded to threaten my cat's life. It almost got out of hand.
SIAP This one was pretty good. Guy had a bad experience getting a pizza and decided to write a book about it: Bad experience at Domino's Pizza Ajay Vohra from River Rock Ranch Domino's Pizza, Fair Oaks Ranch & I10, Manager - Alexis Libhart. I placed an order for 2 pizzas and a specialty bake chicken at 5:30 pm on 8/16 for delivery and received confirmation to be delivered within 20-30 minutes... 1. At 6:30, still no pizza, I called the store and was on hold for 40 minutes before I hung up. 2. At 7:15 I decide to go to the store with my son. 3. 7:25 - The employee at the register could not locate my order. 2 other employees continued to assemble boxes and put labels on for new orders, and completely ignored the ringing phone. 4. Alexis comes over... a. "We don't have your order". I showed my email confirmation. b. "We don't have it". I had already paid for it. c. "Oh, I found it, pizzas are still here". She could not find them. d. "The driver has already left with them". So I called home, still not delivered. I wait 10 minutes and call again - still nothing. e. Alexis offered to make new pizzas et al. f. Her husband Steven (non-employee of Domino's) walks over from the gas station side, tells me to to leave the store or he would call the police. So I tell him to back off since both of us are being recorded on camera, and the police can easily see the footage. He backs off to the other side of the store and keeps staring at us. g. Alexis starts making the pizzas, she is not wearing any polythene gloves used in food processing. She put the cheese and meat, and then shockingly reached into the waste and scrap (dump) pit under the table, grabbed pepperoni and sausage pieces and put them on my pizza. (this pit/dump is a collection bin for all the scrap and waste that gets cleaned off the prep table to be discarded. h. When I questioned her she completely denied it and handed me the boxes and walked into the back of the store. I hope there is a CCTV camera in the prep & cooking area to see this scenario unfold. i. Needless to say, I walked out and left the full boxes on the trash bin outside the store. Domino's will never get my business again. This is a prime example of a store that is run so very badly, defying all norms of food safety and operating procedures. If a manager can do this, what about the other employees? Rest I leave to everybody's imagination. I have called Domino's corporate and filed a complaint. Their Customer Care folks have called me to get all facts. Waiting to hear further.
I am thankful for the glorious smile of satisfaction my kids get after working hard to look great in their costumes and walk from houses to houses when they finally get to look at how much candy they were able to collect.
can't believe he went through all that trouble for 2 hours over domino's pizza (the chicken bake, i get...) apparently he didn't order it online like normal people?
Some neighbors made a group purchase of ring doorbells yesterday, so this morning had to point out where best buy had the basic ones cheaper...
Team neighbor. How about keeping your nasty ass cat inside where it's supposed to be so it doesn't run around the neighborhood and kill birds, shit in kids' sandboxes, and start fights with adorable, wonderful dogs.
Someone recently began a discussion about hearing Coyotes (and asking what a Coyote howl sounds like), which reminded me of this scenario. One of my neighbor's lets her 2 cats roam free, but they might be brought indoors when in Winter. SW PA is experiencing a huge influx of Coyotes (technically CoyWolves - a Coyote/Gray Wolf hybrid). My development is right on the outer cusp of suburbia, and there is plenty of farmland in every direction. Those cats will get got here soon enough, which is awfully negligent - but could she face legal problems for this?
Apparently the smart ass comments I have made related to the people wanting to get rid of the bobcats has encouraged people to be smartasses as well. Now we have people starting threads saying "Hawks!" "Oh goodness the Hawks are everywhere killing rats and rodents, they might kill a pet!!! We need to call the City!!!" Then you have people laughing and then others confused who don't realize the history saying "You can't call the city!". Its really a giant cluster fuck yet I find it hilarious. Team Bobcat.
Tell them its the first part of an old gypsy curse ritual. First they "mark" the house with a bag of coins. Then after they feel its taken root they come back to rob the house. Could be days, could be weeks, could be months before they come back. But rest assured they will be back. You could even take it a step further and make up with some shit he could do to scare them off for whenever they come back. Like throwing chicken bones randomly around the yard will scare them off when they come back and see it because the bones reverse their gypsy curses.
The gypsy curse is good. You need something better for an anti-curse, though. Something like, gypsies are afraid of skeletons and will refuse to rob a house with one prominently displayed. Therefore, you have to leave your Halloween decorations up year round, preferably one hanging from a tree in your front yard.
I was thinking go "Dead-Man's Chest" and claim that, if they've spent any of the coins, the only way to lift the curse is to get those specific coins back and put them on someone else's doorstep. If it isn't those exact cursed coins, the curse will stick and $ will continue to disappear from the household that spent them.
I've been on nextdoor for about a month now and there's been some great conversations. One going on right now is about installing speed bumps. Turned into a debate between two women on how lowering 5 mph won't matter. One gives detailed explanations and math on breaking distance and speeds. Another discussion on small gators in the lakes that resulted in Florida people calling northerners that moved down stupid for wanting to get rid of the gators. And lastly, someone is stealing all the baby jesus's from manger scenes.
I've got a good one from our sister neighborhood. I need a second to take screenshots and get it all together. Short summary though... Lady makes post with pic of suspicious guy she says is casing her house. She says she has video of him using the n-word. Random emo girl named celestia shows up and says don't type the n-word or she will report to nextdoor.com. OP says she can use the n-word because she has black cousins in Detroit. Random black dude named LaVincent shows up and disapproves of n-word usage. Good stuff.
I love that the names of three idiots arguing are Angelique, Celestia and LaVincent. They were destined to meet on nextdoor.
It's on her FB page apparently. A bunch of randoms posted in that thread they watched it. Not sure how to find her FB page though.
first hit, but I dont have a facebook to be able to see the videos https://www.facebook.com/lachicana09
and he very clearly says "Its like uhh, you know you gotta package out here right" then he says "dammit" when he drops the flyer trying to stick it on the door handle
Can I become an e-resident of River Rock Ranch or does NextDoor have a process for verifying identities and addresses?
I think as long as you get invited by someone in the community they do not verify the address. At least that's how it worked for me like 2 years ago. Maybe they've changed it
Plus, he clearly does not have a bluetooth in either ear and he's talking to himself, not anyone else.
saw the white people arguing about "nword" so I quickly scroll to see when the first black person calls them out but it's just a bunch of dumbass white people.
+ adult braces, walks around with a gopro on her wrist, and her husband has the worst tattoo of all time. the things learned in 5 pictures.
He'll be alright. LaVincents are recruited into rich white neighborhoods so that you get the token black dude and the token gay guy all in one person.
