Misc Hanging Out In Your Driveway/Garage - Page 3

**Donger** · 05-21-2008, 06:28 PM

We have some new neighbors. To be blunt, they don't exactly fit in to our neighborhood. The are displaying some anomalous behavior, such as sitting in lawn chairs just inside their garage. Why would they want to do that? They have a backyard, and a rather nice deck and lawn upon which to place said lawn chairs. What's so fascinating about the front? Don't they want some privacy?

Yesterday, these people inflated some kind of pool thing, filled it with water and all got inside of the pool. Again, on the driveway. Why?

Also, at present count, there are four people living in the home. Yet, they have six vehicles. Why?

I'll take a older house with a front porch and evenings with the neighbors. Just one of the little pleasures of life during the summer.

Sounds to me like your neighbors aren't the problem. We used to have one of those snobby old bitches for a neighbor. She'de sit by her window and call the cops on all of us for some of the dumbest shit you could think of. Nobody in the neighborhood liked the old bag and I doubt anybody outside her immediate family attended her funeral. Sound familiar?

They probably eat pizza with their hands
and aren't ashamed of their teeth

Sorry to break it to you, but white trash has moved into your neighborhood.

I suggest joining them in the pool and bringing along a sixer of PBR or Old Style. You might have fun.

They are hanging out in the front of the house hoping to socialize, IMO. We go out front and talk with our neighbors in the evenings. It's nice.

Ever hear that saying Don't judge a book by its cover?Hell for all you know they won the mega millions and are just waiting for their new neighbor to give a friendly welcome.

hanging out in the garage, or drive way doesn't make them trash, that inflatable "pool" does.

Well, to be honest, it is somewhat of a snobby neighborhood.

As I said, they are the anomaly.

I grilled baby backs this weekend and took some over as a treat.

Did they offer to inflate their pool for you in return? If not, I don't think they like you much.

In America, there's sort of an unwritten code to these things.

wutamess · 05-21-2008, 08:05 PM

It's called being nosey.
Nothing goes on in the back of the house so why not sit out in the front?
Hell my wife's mad at me because I sat the grill out in the front driveway instead of the back deck.

I'd just rather enjoy my kids playing as I always have in the front yard while I'm Q'ing..
Back yard is too enclosed.

That's part of the reason I don't want to move in said snobby hood.

No, they did not. I don't possess an inflatable pool. We have well-maintained and readily-accessible pools in this neighborhood. They do not require inflation.
