Craziness: A Neighborly Epidemic

      It's the 2nd week in May, and here in Colorado, the weather is finally starting to warm up. The sun is bathing suburbia in its golden glow, and after a long, treacherously cold winter, the rabbits are finally coming out of hibernation to snack on the greenery. So too, are my neighbors stepping outside of their houses for the first time since snow began to fall...
      To show how fucking crazy they are.
       I went for a walk the other day and noticed that one of them still has Christmas decor all over her house. Seriously. It was so crazy, it compelled me to snap a picture.

    Yes, there are reindeer, stockings, wreathes, and a couple Santas. I see this woman walking her dog all the time, so she's very well aware that it's now 80 degrees and almost summer. I can only imagine what kind of delusions she lives with.



   
      Don't worry about the bunny. She'll put him out of his misery later when she eats him.
      Unfortunately, she's not the only one who's crazy. There's the neighbors, and I mean THE neighbors. If you haven't read one of our more infamous posts about the neighborhood/my neighbors, this is what I deal with on a regular basis: suburban politics at its finest. They hate us, but only behind our backs. Hell, last week we were pulling out of the driveway, and the same guy that called the police on us because my dog barked, who deliberately revs the engine on his crappy kit car early in the morning to wake us up... was outside, saw us, and proceeded (along with his entire family) to give us the biggest, fakest, and eerily harmonious smiles and waves I've ever seen.


Just act natural!

   
    But the crazy doesn't stop there. Yesterday he was out watering the lawn.

 

    Why is this crazy, you may ask? Because we have an HOA. They water, and trim, and take care of EVERYTHING for us. Hell, that's why we pay them our stupid HOA fee. And yet here's Mr. Crazy, watering his dead, yellow grass, because it's a competition... and he wants to win.

 
 
 

Stay classy, friends,
Bryan

Mood: Unsettled
Beer: Homebrewed
Shower: Welcome on a hot day


Then again, come to think of it, I might just be as crazy as they are.

  7. Too funny. Within 15 minutes of the beginning of my lawn mowing both neighbors are out with theirs. It doesn't matter what day either. If Bushman's needs it then our too is the motto 'round here. (Counting Crows kicks in at this part)

  10. I don't talk to my neighbours... I think they are hookers... and the guy that lives down the hall always comes out in a robe whenever I'm waiting for the elevator... I think he might be a child molester.

  12. So many houses in South Philly are perpetually decorated for Christmas, but it's quirky in a fun way.

    And your hellish neighbors sound crazier and crazier every time. I'd be scared to leave the house.

  13. Hey Mr. Bun-Bun, my neighborhood has the Fox family, they would like you to come over for dinner...

    At least you can't say your neighbors aren't interesting.

    ReplyDelete

  14. I admire the folks that are getting their decorations ready for next Christmas. That's planning ahead.

  15. That is some crazy shit. That guy probably jerks off with Martha Stewart magazines.

  16. We defeinitely have a few of those crazy neighbors here. We've got an honest to god crazy cat lady too. She'll wander through the yards calling for her cats. I don't think she's ever called the same name twice. Sometimes she hangs outside and watches everyone to make sure there are no 'gang bangers' in the area. I know, because she warned us once that there were.

  17. IT'S ALWAYS CHRISTMASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.... ;______;

  18. HAHAHAHA.

    It's nice to know that your hatred for your neighbors haven't stopped you from drawing a nice set of boobs on their cartoons.

    Also, maybe it's just me, but the cartoon of yourself is looking significantly more attractive every time I look at it.

    *male deprivation talking*

  23. Dont drop the soap mr. bun bun!

  24. I've never understood why it would EVER MATTER how your lawn looks.

    My wife and I saw people out gardening at 7 pm in the rain, on a cold day.

    What the hell is wrong with people?

    "The begonias are going to blossom quite nicely this year."
    "GO FUCK YOURSELF."

  33. My favorite is when the neighbor lady asked if she could borrow one of our cucumbers out of our garden so that way she could have sex with it. I told her she could have it. That I really did not want it back when she was done. Gotta love those neighbors! That and miracle grow!

  37. Why do we even have lawns? It just seems like a waste of water.

    ReplyDelete

  38. Love it. I also hate HOAs, just my opinion though.

    ReplyDelete

  39. Very funny. Reminds me of the neighbours we had that would block us in the driveway. Or the two douchebags upstairs chainsmoking storm clouds of tobacco and cannibis in regular rotation.

    Oy.

    ReplyDelete

  40. The comic, taking the joke one panel past where anyone else might into "pissing blood" territory, is why I love this blog.

    ReplyDelete

  42. Great blog... It reminded me of my own shit neighbours! (Ps I'm not slow, we spell 'neighbour' with a 'u' in Oz!)

    My hubby and I had a dick head of a neighbour in our rental property before we bought our house... We moved in and he mowed our front lawn for us. To show our appreciation my hubby took him some of his home brew... This is where shit got weird... He kinda snatched the home brew, like he was offended we didn't by him regular beer and when Todd (my hubby) asked for the bottles back the neighbour said he threw them out and he never spoke to us ever again!? When we finally moved out I saw him down the local shops and my Husband was waiting in the car... I yelled to Todd (Hubby), 'hey Todd! Look! It's fuck head!!!' and started pointing to our ex neighbour! The dude looked really uncomfortable as everyone was looking at him, he walked faster to his car... I sped up and continued to yell "hey, Todd look! It's fuck head! Say hi fuck head! Wave fuck head! Ya fucking FUCK HEAD!!!"

    I felt much better about the whole thing because now if I see him at the shops and he ignores me he has an ACTUAL REASON!!! :)

    Keep up the great work! :)

  43. 'Wanna go on a sleigh ride Mr Bun-Bun?'

    I laughed so hard (and loud) I must have woken up the neighbors.

    And yes, I am slowly making my way thought the old posts because I have nothing better to do in the middle of the night.

    Plus this shit is funny as hell!

    PS: good work. :D

  45. I hate fake smiles. Come to think of it... I hate smiles, especially when it involves neighbors as fake as Liberace on a good day. ;)
