I've dealt with the police more this week than I have done for years. Coming home last night James was putting the car in the garage when the neighbour opposite us ran up to him and started having a go saying our garden was a disgrace. This is the same guy who reported us to the environmental health people and then later the council because of Tex. The guy was drunk and to cut his babbling short it ended up with him telling James 'even if you are a spastic I'll still hit you' then chasing him home. I was just so pissed off you know? So we called the police and reported him, they wanted to know if James wanted to press charges but what good would it do? So they're just going to see the crazy idiot and giving him a warning about his behaviour. Some people man, they shouldn't be allowed to drink anything alcoholic.

But good things. Numb3rs! Numb3rs is downloading now, it's at 3% now and I can't wait. I have so much love for the show and need to get my fix of the brotherly love. Hmmm, it's at 25% now, not that it's downloading that fast, just that I've been reading the flist in-between. Man, I can't wait. Hurry up damn you!

Okay, a distraction. I managed to catch Extreme Makeover last night and man, yet again it had me crying. The woman with cancer and her three adopted daughters with AIDS, how could I not cry? I know the show is set up to tweak at your emotions but I don't care, I'm a sap, I admit it. Sadly I'm a sap who can't help slashing the show and that's so wrong. As wrong as the fact that there's no EM slashfic out there. That is if I'd looked, which I haven't because that would be wrong...ahem. Moving on now.

The anon memes that are going around where you comment on your fantasies, whoa at some of the things that are being posted. I want to read them! I haven't posted any myself, maybe I should do so? *ponders what I'd like to see*

I finally posted comments to all the stories at sentinelsecrets including my own. I resisted the urge to do the OMG best fic eva! comment but man, it's weird commenting on your own stuff. It feels so....I don't even know. I mean I like my story and know it has good points but it feels strange pointing those out in public. Which is silly as you shouldn't be afraid of doing that. But now I'm babbling and I've lost my point so I'll go.

32% now...sigh.

'even if you are a spastic I'll still hit you'

How fucking rude!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It really is. He's a horrible man who's taken a dislike to us and I have no reason why.

[digital-diva.livejournal.com]

Maybe the comment he made right there is a hint?

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You're probably right, it just sucks that there's people around who think like that.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

All the stories you're always telling us about would almost be laughable if they didn't really happen to, you know, real persons. I mean, God, what is wrong with some people? Dammit!

Your download is going faster than mine is. Of course, it might be because you started it first but it's just... I want it now! Even if there's no way I'll have time to watch it, I just want it to be here and know that when I'll be back I'll be able to watch it for sure. Cause in the meantime? You never know what can happen *knocks wood so that nothing bad happen*

I didn't comment on all the stories - I stretched the commenting a looooooooooot lol

26% *sigh*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He really pissed me off last night, I mean totally to the point of fuming about it, because I know James can look after himself but the fact remains he'd have no chance if he was attacked and that scum was seconds away from doing that.

I'd love to know what we've done to piss him off so much. It's not like he's our immediate next door neighbour, he's across the pavement and one house down. I mean our nearest neighbours have never complained, it's just him.

Man, yes. I want my download to end now too! I can't imagine what it would be like downloading on dial up. Waiting days. The horror!

I sat and commented on everything in one go yesterday, though commenting on my own was a trip *g* If I knew the deadline was going to be extended I may have stretched it out too, then again at least they're done and there's some awesome stories in the batch.

56%. I need my cest fix like now!

[charlidos.livejournal.com]

My Numb3rs download just finished! Yay! But I won't have time to watch it until tomorrow... But still. Yay! Charlie! :)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Mine's at 50% now.

I don't think me sitting staring at it is making it go any faster sadly *g*

But yes, Charlie!

I must get an icon!

[charlidos.livejournal.com]

Yes. You need an icon. :)

This show is strange. Once you start thinking about it in a slashy manner, it seems the writers are doing it on purpose, doesn't it? It's so terribly, terribly tender and angsty and obvious. I love it so much.

[agent99.livejournal.com]

It's a good thing he dosn't live around here. I don't know how things are where your from, but in this part of the country, every block has a pissed off hick waiting on somebody to run their mouth. He'd get his lights knocked out if he acted like that around here...by my MOM needless to say! Aye.

No wonder every episode of COPS has somebody from around here on it...

But yeah, just think of happy stuff :D Don't let the idiot get to you. And if all else fails, send him over here, I'll throw him in the swamps with all the aligators :D

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Sadly we live on an estate where it's mostly older people who keep to themselves which is great normally, but does mean assholes like him are allowed to do what they want.

I think I should ship him over to you, being eaten by alligators would be a fitting end.

Thanks, honey.

[trumpeterofdoom.livejournal.com]

God, your neighbour is such a fucking arsehole.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He really is. I just wish he'd quit and go away.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bettina_/]

Rude and creepy people should be kicked hard in the ass! *grrr*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

They really should. There's just no excuse for it.

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

Your neighbor deserves to be shot. Or something. SOmething slow and terribly painful because man! That is just unbelievably rude and small minded... Gah!! It's amazing people are still like that now a days.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I just wish he'd move away you know? He's so annoying and always there doing something. I ignore him most of the time but it gets old getting reported all the time and calling James that was inexcusable.

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

It's completely inexcusable to call ANYone that.. But good grief... Yeah, I don't blame you.

[autumnyte.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry about your nasty, drunken neighbor!! What a jackhole.

We have really asinine, druggie/drunk neighbors as well, and I know how uncomfortable that can be. Good for you for even having the courage to call the police. We've not even gone that far, for fear of making situations worse.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I was worried about calling the police too and that sucks. Why should we, and I mean you here too, live worrying about what people will do. I haven't seen him since which is probably just as well.

[iconis.livejournal.com]

Lord almighty with the police stories. This sort of crap just seems to pile up. [hugs]

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Yeah I know, things went a little crazy last week for sure.

*hugs back*

Thanks, honey.

[rikes]

*hugs*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

*hugs back*

Thank you, sweetheart.

[trickyjazzer.livejournal.com]

Some peoples behavior towards others really baffle me. Through in some alcohol and it's ridiculous.

[trickyjazzer.livejournal.com]

Through should be throw...I can't spell today.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

My spelling sucks on the best of days *g*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Yeah, me too. It's not that hard to behave well to others. Sadly alcohol causes so many problems.

[ninjetti75.livejournal.com]

Oooooooo, I'm gonna part logical and part spaztastic hyper-violent nutjob on this one, what fun!


Ok.


My thoughts? A can of mace. Even one of those mini-keyring ones, that'd probably be great, 'cause if this guy is gonna accost James at home, it'll most likely be when he's leaving or getting home, keys already in hand, right?
Spray the bastard asshole right in the eyes, up the nose, just drop him right there.

Then go inside and call the cops, say he felt threatened and defended himself.

After an incident like today, the law is HOW much on James' side? And I suppose you could warn the guy first, explain that he was threatening last time and it won't be tolerated, etc etc... ..but meh, where's the fun in that why bother?

you could even kick him a few times when he's down, tell the cops the guy freaked out and caused James' to fear even more for his and his family's safety... ..but i'll just keep that and the further extrapolations thereof to myself, heh.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

The only problem with that is Mace is illegal here as are most things you can use to defend yourself. The law is a total ass about things like this to the extent that people have been jailed for defending themselves and hurting the attacker in the process.

The police did warn him in the end but because James reacted to him they said there was nothing they could do. Like I said, in terms of this our laws are insane.

[ninjetti75.livejournal.com]

o.O'!?!?!?

Sounds like.

That's just... ..insane, yeah.


Because James reacted they couldn't do anything!? Reacted how? What are you supposed to do, curl into a ball around your cellphone and call the cops, hoping they show up before your attacker does permanent damage? WTF?!?!?!!!!

Oi.


Sorry Luv, that one just caught me totally off guard. I can't even begin to wrap my head around not being allowed to defenf myself. I mean, I've spent over half my life in the martial arts, the idea is just... ..anathema to me, almost alien. Weird, weird, weird.

*boggles*

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

Whoa, some people... *kicks your neighbour hard*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I know, I like the idea of you kicking him though ;)

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

Heh, it's my pleasure hon. Stupidity like this needs to be punished. *kicks some more*

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

he said what????????? holy fuck, I'm coming over there and kicking his ass.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Yeah he said that. He really needs his ass kicking.

[ihearthings-ii.livejournal.com]

I can't believe some people, man, that's just so incredibly rude.
