The Post For Stuff You Wanna Tell People

To some neighbors: Couldn't wait until after Thanksgiving to decorate for Christmas?!

Same here!

I thought that this morning when I saw that the city has begun putting up decorations on Main Street.

I wish I could say "blow your damned nose."

To my generally pleasant but clueless neighbors - Either corral the yard apes or have the hard conversation. My boys were generally stains on good behavior certificates ergo I have long and deep experience with miscreants.  If it couldn't be smashed, enflamed, or exploded, those three savages weren't interested.  Just because the schools have temporarily released your feral children into the wild for a week doesn't mean you have permission to go 1950s housewife.  I don't have time to village up and look after the children roaming across my front lawn, on my drive and front porch, and down the alley.  If you want an extra relative, I'll happily put them to work cleaning and hauling off trash without pay.  That's how ad-hoc childcare worked back in the day.  However, you don't really want an extra auntie.  Y'all want an unpaid babysitter. Screwww that.
