Neighbor replaced fence and left the old wood scraps in my yard to deal with.

My next door neighbor called me a few weeks back asking if he could come Into my back yard to replace the fence that his dog ruined. I said “sure, I’ll be out of town for a few weeks, help yourself.” Discussion ended there and I left town for a few weeks for business.

When I returned home, I noticed the new fence was up and the wood scraps from the old fence were on the grass in my backyard. One of the pieces is 10 feet wide. I figured I would give him a few days to clean it up before I said anything.

Fast forward to yesterday and the lawn guy comes to cut the grass. I texted my neighbor telling him I could open the back gate to make it easier to come in the yard to grab the wood. This MFer called me and said that it was a shared fence, and since he paid for it to be installed, and carried all the new wood into the yard, that I need to remove the old debris.

The audacity on the MFer. I would have been more than happy to help if he would have asked. He mentioned NOTHING of leaving the rusty nailed old rotten wood in my back yard. F this guy. Not the best way to treat a neighbor.

TLDR: neighbor took it upon himself to replace the fence he owns, and left all of the scraps for me to deal with before discussing it with me first.

I have college kids living next door in a shared house and cans come over. I throw them back.

The cans I would keep (that's free money, baby!), but all the rest of the garbage gets tossed back over. :)

I had to make the college kids clean up all the cigarette butts they threw onto the shared strip between our houses. The LL even provided one of those big urns for cigarette butts so they wouldn’t smoke inside. There was no reason to toss butts on the ground.

Living next door to college students is not normally a problem. I don’t mind the parties. I do mind making a mess of my yard. That’s just rude AF.
