    Another neighbor gripe.

    I'm in a top floor apartment, it's a small building and there's only one apartment next to me on the floor. The A/C hasn't worked in years and whoever moves in always moves out in summer because the heat is unbearable. The landlord will not replace A/C units anymore. Newest guy next door moved in last October and was immediately a nuisance neighbor with loud music. Old *** guy too, probably in his 60s, always cranking 70s rock or Eminem (oddly), like all day. He'll leave the building and not turn it off.

    I'm not a social person (to the point of disability), the most I'm willing to do is bang on the wall, which doesn't work because the guy doesn't care. Just like downstairs dickhead doesn't care if I stomp on the floor (he responds by turning it louder). But I was at peace with knowing it would only be til summer and then he'll bolt like everyone else. Today I saw a nice new A/C unit sticking out of his window

    Of all the non bothersome neighbors to come and go from that apartment over the years, THIS guy is the one that finally gets A/C. Stuck with him forever
    THIS is exactly why I love home ownership.

      Friends who just show up at your house uninvited.
      I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

        Coco Crisp works for Covelli. I used to crack up over it, but I'm too used to it these days.

        Coco officially changed his name so it's not really a nickname.

            Yeah I hate for anyone to show up at my house uninvited.

              The problem with that is you ever get bad neighbors, you're stuck with them unless you sell your house and move. With an apartment, you wait it out and you can just leave when your lease is up. Fortunately aside from a rare neighbor back behind me that has their music too loud a couple nights a year, I've been pretty lucky.

                The parking lot at walmart. It's hard enough to find a space as it is. But there are constantly people going down the wrong isles so you have to squeeze around them. Then they just go down the next isle the wrong way.

                Then people make parking spaces out of areas that aren't spaces. Sometimes I even see people in handicapped spaces without handicapped plates or placards.

                It's also not rare to see people cutting off other people to get spaces. And also see people driving 25 or 30 MPH through the lot.

                And almost forgot to mention people leaving carts in spaces so there is no way to park in them.

                    I find what happens outside Wal-Mart infinitely more offensive than what happens inside.

                        Coming down with a head cold right in time for 4th of July weekend. Or head colds during the summer in general.
