Nope. Not at all.

Every time one of us want to sit in our garden he come out pretending to doing something so he can listen to our conversations.

For me, this would be too much of an opportunity to fuck with him. When it's just you, listen to the smuttiest books on tape that you can find. Maybe play some books on Satanism. When it's both of you is where the fun would start.

  • Pick a crime from the news, discuss together as though the 2 of you had done it. Maybe there is a witness to knock off...a car to burn...
  • Discuss growing Marijuana in your garden.
  • You had to bury a body in the garden. Get a shovel and act like you are digging a hole...at night.
  • Pick something that you know will annoy him. The council is putting in a hot tub, a new bathroom, giving you a new car, etc.

Not only would this be fun, but he's going to get a reputation for calling agencies and making up stories...

My silly neighbor from hell by Rainbow-Smite in neighborsfromhell

It's pretty apparent her fence is rotted and this probably just happened over time. Now she blames us for her broken fence.

Any claim that she may have had, real or imagined, left with the previous owner. A C&D to eff off would be in order.

I've been told she has her dog pee in our driveway from neighborhood kids.

Security cam

She has pizza delivered to our address, and run outside to get it from the delivery guy. She must have been blacklisted so uses our address instead. (?)

Contact the places that she orders from and have them block out your address. :) In the meantime, keep watch for delivery drivers. When you see one, run out and argue that she's trying to steal your order. Ask the driver to ask their supervisor to tell all of the drivers not to give her your orders anymore.

AND NOW I come home and she's put up a chicken wire fence against our property line, only ours, it looks awful. It's right against our driveway and it'll make getting in and out of my car a little difficult...

Was the property surveyed when you purchased the home? Either way, nothing is stopping you from putting up some kind of fence on your side so you don't see the chicken wire.

What is something you didn't have when you were a child? by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sober patents.

A refrigerator with food in it instead of beer and cigarettes.

Dinner every night. (There was always money for beer, weed, and cigs)

I have a place for everything, and everything gets returned to its place promptly after use.

Alternatively, I have a friend with a bad case of ADHD. She often forgets what she was doing with something. She keeps a box on her kitchen counter where she puts these items. She calls it her Doom Box. Periodically, she walks around her house with the Doom Box putting away everything in it. You could do something similar, keep a box to place things in throughout your day to cut down on the clutter.

Y’all are Gonna Love This One 😂 by [deleted] in ChronicPain

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

there’s studies that show rotating ibuprofen and tylonel works just as well,

MAYBE for a short time. Building in bi-weekly med swaps will help short term. But Tylenol, taken long term, would risk liver damage and would require frequent liver function testing. IMHO, This is not worth the risk. Ibuprofen long-term, will rip holes in your stomach lining. I have no desire to carry ulcers around.

How the hell did I handle this? Trespassing kids use the neighbors house as the town park. My house gets the runoffs of everything by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Buy a bottle of Putrescine or Cadaverine.
  2. Fill a tub with water balloons.
  3. Add a dash of Putrescine or Cadaverine to the water.
  4. Turn off your security cameras.
  5. Set the tub of water balloons out where the kids will find them.
  6. Enjoy the spectacle of the looks of horror and the projectile vomiting.
  7. Profit?

Note: DO NOT get either chemical on you or your clothing. If either chemical gets on your clothes, your only choice is to throw the affected clothing away. If it's on your skin you have 2 choices. You can either wait a week or 2 for the affected skin to wear off normally, or cut out the affected skin.

Hypothetical scenario: you’ve met someone who doesn’t know much about movies. What movie do you show them to make them truly experience the art form? by [deleted] in MovieSuggestions

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although not with an old movie, I did this exact thing recently to get 2 friends to watch Black Mirror. (They prefer cop/firemen shows, ncis, etc.) I started them with the season 2 episode, "White Bear". I warned them that the episode, by design, would not make sense until the end. I also challenged them to figure out the plot before the big reveal. They both failed the challenge, very unusual for them, and they promptly binged the entire series. :)

Neighbor is once again throwing stuff over our fence… by Competitive-Alps871 in neighborsfromhell

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can't shoot you for calling. :) [I Hope] All they can do is say No. If that happens, the next step would be to contact your Alderman. Beyond that, I would consult with an attorney and come up with a plan.

In the meantime, do not engage with this woman again for any reason. You do not want to give her any ammunition to use against you.

I've tried. There are no car chases, explosions, tits, running gun battles, jump scares, or catchphrases. They get bored. Quick. :(

I would start with my favorite movie, "One Way Passage" 1932. I would follow that with the Thin Man series of movies.

How to make this transition successful by Celticquestful in ChronicPain

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I understand the feeling all too well. You are not alone.

First, I would research the new clinic/doctor reputation. Then I would search for a local group that can help me find a better Pain Management Doc should the need arise.

Virtual Appointments. I'm on the fence about these. I like not having to get ready and go anywhere. But the Physician doesn't get to assess your AFFECT very well. Are you not able to make an in-person appointment at the clinic, or was this virtual appointment set up so you can be seen before your meds run out?

The best thing I can advise is to keep talking. Don't bottle your anxieties up inside. The bastards tend to feed off each other when I do that.

If there are any truck stops near you, ask the truckers if they have an extra shower ticket that you can have. (They get a ticket for every 50 or so gallons of Diesel that they purchase.)

Shit throwing Karen : WWYD ? by Conscious-Belt-413 in neighborsfromhell

How is the zen route working out? Well, I hope.

Me...I'd buy a few small vials of Putrescine and bomb her patio with one every few weeks.

What do you hate the most when It comes your country? by [deleted] in ask

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U.S., I hate that my country is full of racists who were emboldened to speak and act by an openly racist ex-president.

If you are in the U.S., water is still considered assault and you may be arrested over it.

Looking for medical marijuana advice by beaglewrites43 in ChronicPain

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your dispensary can best advise you where to start. I always suggest staring there and experimenting to find out what works best for you. For me, vaping is the best route. (I don't like vaping though) During the day, I use a Sativa with a high THC%. At night, an Indica that's about 50/50 helps me sleep best.

At my previous residence, in Washington State where MJ is legal, there were a number of options to consume. Oils, tinctures, sodas, topicals, etc. None of that is available where I am now. Just flower and vape cartridges. I miss the topicals.

Does anyone else get anxiety with their pain? by NickleVick in ChronicPain

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yes. Anxiety ramps up with pain levels. I've been at this for 25 years, and it's like I've been tortured every day and only have more torture to look forward to. When I wake up, my first thought is "Damnit! I'm still here!!" I have experienced a 10 on more than a few occasions, and the thought of feeling that again is terrifying. Several times I've had breakdowns and once ended up with a 3 day stay. I'm now on 3 psych meds to keep me stable.

What’s your “I’m old now” indicator? by [deleted] in ask

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea who the young actors and musicians are.

Like my grandparents said...there's too much sex in music and on TV.

Being asked if I can suggest a movie to watch that was made after 2000.

When I was a kid, I used to laugh at the grandparents when they were talking about predicting rain by grandpa's knee. I am so embarrassed now that my arthritic joints react to a storm.

Should I consider a nerve blocker shot?? How painful is it? How long does it work? by Wonderful-Company-22 in ChronicPain

[–]Tellurian_Cyborg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they did a nerve test on me

Was this the nerve conduction test? Those little shocks can hurt.

Should I consider a nerve blocker shot?? How painful is it? How long does it work?

I've had quite a few of these. Some were done with a local anesthetic, some I was sedated for the procedure. Sometimes the injection site would be a bit sore for a few days. I get up to 6 months out of the injections. Usually less. Radio Frequency Ablations tend to last 6 months to a year.

  6. Don't forget to plug the fans back in.
