My temper is flaring. [View all]

I've written ad nauseum about my terrible neighbors.

Years ago, they erected a piece of shit trampoline in their yard, right next to our chain link fence.

There's always a fucking problem over there, and the cops and/or CPS are over there at least once a month.

They don't do jack shit as far as home maintenance, and now the snow is piled so high on the trampoline that TARP IS SAGGING TO THE GROUND the springs are fucking flying off, one by one, and FIRMLY EMBEDDING THEMSELVES INTO SEVERAL INCHES OF THICK, HARD ICE IN OUR YARD.

My wife is trying to keep me out of this, and she is handling it herself. She knows that I'm confrontational, so she is calmly speaking to the woman in the relationship over there herself. I've had several run-ins with them over the years, and my wife is insisting that I don't get involved in this.

I'm reading on the internet that those springs can embed several inches into a human body if they release and hit you. This is a large trampoline...probably 14 feet in diameter.

I guess I'm just going to call the non-emergency police number if that shit isn't taken care of by tonight?

I'm not kidding...the way those things are embedded into the ice, they'll fucking kill you dead if they hit you.

They'll kill my dog if he gets hit by one...
