    Font - My neighbor called the fire department, so I started a business. Roughly a year after moving into a nice neighborhood, the troubles with our neighbors began. Though I should say that it started with our daughter watering their plants when they were out of town and us speaking friendly to one another over our fence. There were many smaller events that led up to what became almost a year of constant harassment from them. For a little background, the "popes," as I will call them, had lived i

We just don't place as much value on those things as they did. One day, we decided to have a fire, in a regulation fire pit, well enough away from the house that it wasn't an issue. We wanted to roast marshmallows with the kids, and I had just lost my job from the pandemic (food industry), so we were dec

    Font - A few weeks later, I fire up my charcoal grill without giving it much thought, and as I'm flipping the steaks, I see 2 firemen walk around to my backyard. Once again, the popes had called, claiming we were burning trash. It also became clear that they had called the city code enforcement on us who of course gave us a hard time even 1 wood over 3 inches, as well as the police knocking on my door at 1am (when we had a newborn) because the popes said my truck was parked too close to a fire h

Eventually, we got a food truck, and the community supported us on our first night, where we parked right in front of our house.

    Font - He also decided to give a bad review on Yelp using a fake facebook account. After reverse image searching the name, I contacted the 21 year old that he had stolen identity from, and the post was removed. Eventually, they decided to move, but even the day before they moved, I could see her on the phone in her kitchen from where I was smoking, in agony talking to someone. Eventually, the fire department came out and left as they always did, and that sad, pathetic couple left as well. Essent

She was convinced that we • are her old neighbors and follower her to this building, • had a very loud printing machine at home and printing counterfeit money (I kept expecting the police for this one) • were sending light rays through her ceiling and causing blisters on her arms and nosebloed.

    Font - BBQing4Life OP. 9 hr. ago You would think so but for me to do anything I would have had to get a lawyer involved and the police weren't going to press charges.
