Fueds, mystery, and death on the mountain... WWID?

Neighbors suck, but I wouldn't wish a flat wife on anyone.

For real.

I live on a private dirt rd with 8 homes, and I live next door to the grumpy old guy that everyone hates. When his wife died unexpectedly everyone on the road showed up to her funeral to offer support. Grumpy fuck thought they were all stupid for going. And still talks shit. The end

 

[45acp]

Put me in the olive branch camp. His reaction would set the tone of our relationship from this point on. Either we can get passed our petty problems, or I can give you a few months to grieve then make your life hell on earth from that point on.

So this guy has 5 acres and built his house 50 feet from yours? Like, you can hear his TV cranked, doors slammed, etc?

 

[Arps]

Extend an olive branch

If he still wants to be a dick, at least you made an attempt

Yup, take the high road. If things were the other way would you want him to make peace?

 

[2big bronco]

Mail him a card with a stick figure drawing of a tree on a car and her hanging half out the window saying "I told you not to try building the shed on the property line" in the style of Mike's vegetable garden

 

[Mr.Ratbastard]

Go give him an awardly long hug.

 

[trampas]

For real.

Breastless women still measure up.

 

[DMG]

Send the gift card and condolences. Offer to help with kids or whatever.


My wife and I both might as well have been raised by wolves (poor wolves) so we have had to figure a lot of stuff out for ourselves. We have a saying to make these sort of decisions easier: We don’t help someone because of who they are. We help because of who we are.

I bet it's that one. But OP can fuck right off with his stupid acronyms.

 

[Sterlingfire]

Nope, he's a prick. Literally tried to sue you for his wrong. Fuck him. Do something for the kids, like a play date or some other shit kids might be intoAnyway, they are the ones who will suffer the most. Dr prick will probably treat them like shit now.

[arse_sidewards]

So this guy has 5 acres and built his house 50 feet from yours? Like, you can hear his TV cranked, doors slammed, etc?

And all sorts of headboard on wall because single men who make doctor money don't stay single for long at that age.


Considering that it cost him 15k to move from 5ft to 20ft setback and OP's house is clearly already at the property line for this to be an issue I'm assuming there's a key detail OP is leaving out like the only easily/cheaply build-able land in the vicinity being at the property line

 

[Sterlingfire]

Send the gift card and condolences. Offer to help with kids or whatever.


My wife and I both might as well have been raised by wolves (poor wolves) so we have had to figure a lot of stuff out for ourselves. We have a saying to make these sort of decisions easier: We don’t help someone because of who they are. We help because of who we are.

You might be an enabler

 

[Slander]

I wouldn't go out of my way to do anything, if I saw him maybe I would say sorry for loss and that's about it. If the dude is a sue happy asshole to evreyone, especially ones that helped him out, karma's a bitch and now his wife's dead the universe has a way of balancing things out.

 

[DMG]

You might be an enabler

Definitely not an enabler. Our other saying is be kind to everyone but have a plan to kill them.


The guy is an asshole but he lost his wife and his kids lost their mother.

Too early, i know.

The guy is an asshole, that's why i said to try to help his kids, but the Dr gets nothing... simply because he won't appreciate it.

 

[Tin Roof]

See if you can find a Groot sympathy card.

 

[45acp]

karma's a bitch and now his wife's dead the universe has a way of balancing things out.

The shitty thing- the wife was probably the only decent/sane adult in the house, and now the kids are stuck being raised by psychopath dad and a long series of gold digging stepmoms.

 

[trampas]

The shitty thing- the wife was probably the only decent/sane adult in the house, and now the kids are stuck being raised by psychopath dad and a long series of gold digging stepmoms.

That's entirely plausible but now we'll never know. She could have been the psycho bitch from hell driving his every motivation to be a buttfuck.

Very possible.

Eh I guess, then again she's gotta have some screws loose to allow pysco put food and drink in here in a romantic manner.

 

[rockmup]

Do the right thing in spite of him.

 

[Thefishguy77]

If thats the case the Doc will get better? Worked for the PO of our house by all accounts. He used to walk around and threaten to shoot anyone on his property. His wife died and suddenly he mellowed out. Apparently got of the doctors pills she made him take. By all account his last few years on this earth he was a nice guy.

Personally having Drs as neighbors as well I find they are the smartest and most important people in the room. All you have to do is ask them. Mine pretty much wont talk to us because they can’t manipulate my wife or myself. Everybody knows their true colors and being part timers in towns most locals dont even like them.

I voted for bacon because fuck those guys. Yea I feel for the kids, lost my dad at a younger age and it sucks. But life deals cards, play youR hand and hope you can get a wild card now and agin and use it for you. If you could help just the kids that would be great but usually thats going to draw a lot of red flags from any parent. “I am only here to help your kids...” Bacon it is

 

[Hawkes]

I am in a similar situation. Private rd, neighbor who thinks every ones land belongs to them. I got drunk and told them to stay off my property at 2 am. They saw that as a challenge, and called cops, building inspector, electric utility... I now have 130 ft of fence and a boathouse, basically in their front yard since they built their place sideways looking up the lake through my property. Since there is nothing left for them to complain about they put their place up for sale for 4 times it's value, then dropped it to twice it's value. Not going to sell because no view. I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.

 

[Lurker]

Dr Dick, I am sorry for your loss. I know we have had our differences, but if you need help, especially with the kids, you know where to find us.

Turn and walk away. Just like 45ACP, his response would define the rest our time being neighbors.

 

[Sterlingfire]

You should stop addressing him as Dr, unless he is your Dr. I would call him by his first name, farmer or prick or dick or whatever the fuck it is. From here on out, if you choose to help him, he is your equal imo. If he is your equal, he does not deserve a prefix to his name in common conversation. That will bring him down a notch or two, still above you, but more common ground. I've found that Dr's you address by their first name come back to earth, and act more cordial.

This is true although I always addressed dr Tony as dr Tony because he was nearly 80 years old and I was 20-something years old and he let us hunt his property and gave us his homemade wine. In retrospect it’s funny, I never saw him doing dr stuff. He was always making wine or wrenching on an old car or being angry at canda geese.

Any time there's an accidental death that's tangential to my life, I post a giant wall of text on the internet. I make sure that it spells out all my grievances and motives, in a way that can only be described as a "manifesto".
