A few years ago, when my wife was pregnant with our oldest daughter, we were living in a tiny starter house in a great neighborhood. There was a "should have been condemned if it wasn't owned by a city councilman" rental property to our east and the house actually sat only 6 inches from the property line.

I had to tell the mongoloids next door at least 6 times to stop throwing their seeds in my yard so I didn't have to mow over their ditch weed. They would get high and saw apart vehicles.

At one point, they embarked on a project to transform a late model conversion van into a flatbed truck. Even though they knocked out the body work pretty fast, the couldn't keep the thing running, so they parked it next to their house - technically on my property.

So I asked them to move it. They said they would but left it sitting there for like 2 more weeks, just long enough for us to get a foot of snow and drift the damn thing in.

One Friday night, while we were getting ready to go out for dinner, I could hear them out there firing up that van and trying to get it moved. I looked out the window and it looked like they had shoveled exactly no snow - they were just gunning it and hoping to jar it loose.

As we were leaving, we walked out the door and I could smell gas - ALOT of gas. I told the wife to go back inside and proceeded to walk over to the neighbors since I could see them standing in front of the van staring at the house.

When I arrived, I was overwhelmed with the stupiditiy. The van had indeed gotten unstuck - it lurched forward and ripped the gas line and regulator clean off the house. Both of the morons were standing there staring at the open pipe as it sprayed at gas, their jaws slack, and one of them was SMOKING A CIGARETTE. The other one turned to me and said "if I call the gas company, do you think they'll come this late on a Friday night?"
