Nosy Neighbors

Nosy neighbors and troubles with code enforcement. These guy are gardeners from here the Permaculture Forum (a thread about this very subject) that is for growing vegetables and such. They are being hassled for having a garden, not a weed garden but a garden for growing food.

I have seen many kinds of busy bodies. I have seen them sit for hours looking through there windows. looking to catch a sprinkler going off at the incorrect time of day or any other trivial thing they can complain about.

There are the crazies who are mentally off who routinely call the police, 911 code enforcement or any other government agency who they think will listen. Often their complaints are borderline crank calls or what sounds like a legitimate complaint but is actually just made up, but it forces a response which is what they get off on. It could be something like some kids walking down the street and one of them were smoking, 911 call - kids smoking crack on my street. You get the idea.

"Normally the people that rule the HOAs (home owners association) are busy-body tyrants." I have seen this on many occasions and these kind of people live to fuck with anyone they can, they often have too much time on there hands. There are books written about HOA nightmares, this is a long list of headaches.

There are many kinds of busy bodies out there any comment on how to deal with them?

YOu sound like the busy body do you have PROOF they called.......I mean you sit for hours watchin them so you must have and idea what they really do.....have you tried tappin thier fone so you can get a better idea how nosey they are...............you sign up for HOA so you know whats up.........I never would but thats me......I hate bein told what to do with my land............but good luck on your snooping and complaining about em..........mayge get a night scope so you have more hours to watch............

I was working somewhere and someone is peeking through the window at us, as the day went on, this person was there the whole time, I mean 6 hours of peeking through the window we came back the next several days and the same thing every day. I have no clue if they called anyone.
I mean there are busy bodies of all sorts. I had someone one time who felt they needed to look through my mail they thought they were helping me.

I have been on the other side answering these calls. Lets say a 911 answer point right, they know who the crazies are, they call all the time. They try to call using different a phone, fake there voice, or they calling another department to get redirected. The voice is known, still they try to make trouble. And the police are forced to respond.

Of coarse this busy body is obvious so in reality is a small threat. The one you do not know is much more dangerous.

better lock up and move to the mountains and tell nobody you are there..................you wont be safe till you do.

stonypony has a bit of a point though, like attracts like.

i have no idea if i have busybody neighbors, i simply never check.

but true true, there are extreme cases. perhaps difficult to not notice lol.

so, does your girlfriend call you, my little pony? and is that a reference to your "middle" section?

i have the exact opposite issue in my neighborhood. nobody sees ANYTHING around here. a nosy neighbor here would quickly become bored with the nonexistant police response and blatant neighbor retalliation. HOAs are a joke to me. anyone who would choose to live under someone else's rules in a home that they bought and paid for is asking for it. i've seen stories about people not being able to grow food, not being able to hang clothes outside, having to have a certain fucking variety of grass on their lawn, paint the house only certain colors, ect. fuck that. last year there was a story on the news about some lady being threatened to be kicked out of the neighborhood because she had the AUDACITY to have one of those slip n' slide water toy things for the kids at her daughter's birthday party. are these people fucking serious? if i was as rich and bored as the people who run those associasions i would make a hobby of moving in just to tacky the place up with cheap decorations and crab grass. maybe a buick on blocks. fuck those snobby douches.

My pops lives in one of those neighborhoods. I'm like fuck that!! Every year when I visit I put pink flamingos in the front yard. His neighbor is the head of the hoa so I park on the street in front of there house or as close to it as possible. I would never move anywhere like that.

Dude ... Am i the only one who caught how homo erotic this sounded? You guys are losing your touch ... the video was the wrong direction ...

there is only one way to stop nosey neighbors......give them something to see that they really don't want to see.......For example my uncle had a some neighbors that were always watching his backporch area so he set up a toilet and would pretend to have his morning shit out on the back porch.......Newpaper,,,,wiping of the ass and the whole bit......Then to top it all off everytime he would see them he would wave and tell them how much he enjoys his morning shit......Wasn't long before they stopped being nosey and moved out of the neighborhood.
