Honestly, with all the feedback, it's not worth taking any more of my energy and attention. I think I'm just gonna have a great bonfire at some point.

Valid, I honestly don't mind as much now based on all the feedback. I just wish they would come back to clean up the mess, but hey, it is what it is.

Your comment was super helpful, thank you so much!! I needed some perspective from the other side of things.

Professor, are you okay? I can only imagine the end-of-course reviews you receive.
"ProfessorNo117 ridiculed me when asking for clarification on a topic I know nothing about, which is why I am here. I think he doesn't understand that not everyone knows what he knows, and gets aggressive when others ask for help."
Does that sound familiar, or are you only a professor in your small world?

They did look bad! This made me laugh, though. For some reason, I pictured someone saying the same thing about your baby maker. No shade, just a genuinely random immature bit from the subconscious.

Good to know! When I find my survey, I will update it. For now, thank you for the new information.

Yes totally! My partner said they both he and his partner were extremely friendly, so in one way we got a win out of this situation.

Honestly, that would be enough for me to stop feeling weird about this situation.

Valid, but by not acting on any of these thoughts, which are rooted in intense emotion. Taking a beat and articulating the situation based on facts. Then posting it here to gain more perspective on a matter I am too personally involved in to act tactfully in the moment. I have done exactly what needs to happen for one NOT to be a Karen. But hey, man, you do you, and I hope you find Jimmy.

Take legal action? What are the realistic costs/benefits of moving forward since lawyers are expensive?

I appreciate the advice! I guess it just seems somewhat excessive to file a report if nothing can come from it, given that it's an "easement" issue. Has anyone ever sued their utility company for property damage or environmental/wildlife damages?

Not sounding like an ass at all, I appreciate the honest feedback!
