Yeah, because those bins get picked up by an automated arm thing. It won't work with all the junk sticking out like that.

Please Don’t Wake Her Precious Baby
I Need Petty Revenge Ideas
I’ve absolutely had it with our back neighbor. We’ve had issues with her for years.
A bit of context to understand how she’s able to do what she does. We share a driveway with the house next door to ours. Neighbor lives on the street behind us, her property sits between the two so she shares a border with the two houses. Neighbors to the side of us took down their fence six years ago and never replaced it. So neighbor has full access basically.
She regularly uses our driveway to cut through to get to her house instead of walking further down the street and around to hers (her street is a cul-de-sac and ours isn’t). We’ve seen a bunch of other people do that over the years too, cutting through her property as well. Neighbor got fed up of people using her yard as a shortcut, and put up a massive gate blocking access to her street. So for others to do this it’s totally unacceptable, but absolutely fine for her apparently.
She always let her dog out in to the yard. The dog would perpetually do its business in our yard. Did she ever come to pick it up? Nope.
And then today my mom sends me this photo while I’m at work. Neighbor is in OUR yard. Cutting lilacs from the tree that is 100% fully on our property. Did she ask us for permission first? Nope. She literally just walked over with gardening gloves and scissors to cut of a bunch of flowers.
Charge her with trespassing and get a restraining order. Hopefully they can put up their own fence!
My Neighbor Keeps Her Camera Pointed Straight At My Back Door
Tack a fake plant to your side of the fence so that it blocks the camera. Or a big piece of cardboard.
Upstairs Neighbor Cut Their Hair On The Balcony
Alright I’m Done Being Nice…
My neighbor has the same bright light that shines right in my bedroom window, all night. Asked if he could aim it somewhere that isn't my bedroom, and he said no, it's for security. I now have tin foil on my windows. Jack.a*s

Weird Airbnb Neighbor
For this college program I'm in, we have a trip where we visit businesses in cities
The group split an Airbnb and we all arrived around 7pm went to sleep around 10pm-11pm
At 4am, some of us woke up to a loud bang in the backyard. When all of us woke up, we noticed there were multiple trashbags and glass bottles broken on the steps
A random lady decided to walk back and take a picture with her digital camera. We didn't think too much about it.
We told the host and they said the trash would be cleaned soon
A few minutes later, we all go outside to get our Uber and the same lady rushes outside to take pictures of us at 8am
Next day, same thing
We told the host about it and they said "Oh we have a crazy neighbor that does that because she thinks Airbnb's are illegal" ??? Wish they could have mentioned that
She also put this sign up
Luckily, we leave soon but we feel like a zoo animal.

Update On Neighbor That Puts Sandbags Across Sidewalk
From Reddit: So this is the new form of blocking the sidewalk. It crosses the entire sidewalk causing a tripping hazard to anyone who using the sidewalk. I’ve called the village to complain about the bags and they sent the police out a couple times to have them removed but they keep getting put back each time it rains. I have purchased my own sandbag to stop the increased amount of water from rushing down the sidewalk next to my house to help control the problem he is causing to some degree. Not sure what else to try to do. Talking to him is not a good idea because he and we do not get along and it will lead nowhere just as it has in the past.

Police Called For “Tall Grass”
From Reddit: Police officer was knocking on my front door at 9:00 am; relayed that someone had called in my grass this morning as being too long (pic from immediately after visit). We laughed incredulously. Disclaimer: I have never had any notes in my mailbox or neighbor coming over to express concern. 0-100. Straight to the police. What a great use of resources.
When Your Neighbor Doesn't Dig Out His Own Path To The Street And Just Uses Mine And Decides That Parking In Front Of It So No One Else Can Use It
Both Of Our Neighbors On Both Sides Constantly Block Us In. We’ve Asked Them Both Not To, Have A Sign On Our Garage, And Have Even Contacted Our Renters Office (They Did Nothing). Very Mildly Infuriating LOL

Off Leash
My neighbors constantly allowing their dogs to run loose in the neighborhood. They breed Pits and can’t contain them. They run into the streets, harass people and other pets. To be fair, I’m concerned for the dogs getting hurt as much as for my children’s and pets safety.
Call Animal Control. They will take care of loose dogs and fine the owners.

Neighbor’s Flag Irks Me To My Core
I have watched this disintegrate over time. He knows it looks bad but has yet to do anything about it.
Is it considered vandalism if I put a new flag up on his pole or simply trespassing?
