View Obstruction Part Deux

A little while ago, we posted an exchange of emails from neighbors, discussing the merits of lawns chairs and their obstruction of the view.
It seems that the matter was not dealt with and so we are pleased to bring you the continuing saga here. And the exciting conclusion after the jump!

  2. Blondie says:

    OMG!! this whole thing makes me laugh so much!!

    if this ends up being fake i think i’ll have to cry

    This freakin rocks!!!! It’d be easier if they lived in Army housing though, call the Military Police 5 or 6 times about this nutjob and he’d be out on his ass. I’ll donate my lawn chairs, old hummvee parts (for welding), and scrap wood or metal I can find… hell ill go and help :P

    um, guys? This john, he also is pretty fucked up; he`s putting towers of chairs on his lawn just to irritate the other guy… that`s just insane :)

    • hrrrm says:

      No he just likes messing with people. I would totally do this if i had a wackjob neighbor like this. Probably wouldn’t do what he did in the second email but the Tower of chairs rules. And i love how he calls Paul out on his Lawyer.

      I don’t know. It seems like all 24 people on the block really want this guy gone. He probably does a lot of other crazy stuff so that so many people know him. There are a lot of different ways to deal with this, but if this guy is getting text messages, phone messages and emails everyday, he has probably had enough. The couple who were in Africa were willing to cut their safari short to fax support to pay him 5% of his home sale, so something must be going on.

    Haha!!! This sounds EXACTLY like some of the “communications” I got from my insane husband, during our 4 year divorce battle. Complete Refusal To See Reality!! Too funny!

  8. katie says:

    John’s very smart, though. He knows exactly how to punish this guy, and lets him know expectations in advance… has John ever taught high school? His behavior modification has a great structure.

    Wow…just wow.

  10. Libbie says:

    John, you are now a god to me.
    I swear – a guy like you should teach classes on dealing with psycho dipshit morons.

    Bless your heart, dear.

  11. Nick says:

    I seriously laughed my ass off at this.
    If you could, I would love to see a picture of the lawn chair towers.

    Sadly, this is fake. Look at the e-mails, the last one on 8/1/09, and the e-mail directly following that. They both say “Sat”. He forgot to update the date to “Sun” when writing that “reply”. 2 e-mails later, it’s still 8/2/09, and again it says “Sat” when the one before it, with the same date, says “Sun”. I wish it were real, it’s absolutely hilarious, and I applaud the mind that came up with this sick, twisted, absolutely hilarious story.

    Sadly, this is a fake. Look at the dates on the e-mails, the last e-mail dated 8/1/09, and the e-mail directly following that. They both say “Sat” despite one being 8/2/09 and the other being 8/1/09. He forgot to update the date to “Sun” when writing that “reply”. 2 e-mails later, it’s still 8/2/09, and again it says “Sat” when the one before it, with the same date, says “Sun”.

      The lines that say “On Tue”, “On Wed”, etc, are not part of the e-mails. They’re editorial remarks, to let you know when we recv’d/read/sent the e-mails. These are all in Outlook format, and that starts with the “From:”.
      As unbelievable as these things are, there -are- people out there crazy enough to write them, so I’m not going to say that they are 100% real, but they’re certainly not fake because of what you mentioned.

    What is it with people and lawn chairs?

  15. ChiaChan says:

    This “Lawn Chair Trilogy” is far more entertaining then anything I could possibly find on TV! Oh, the insanities of surburbia – I’m all the more glad that I live up in the mountains now, and not in the heartland of surburbia, Long Island.

  16. Animal says:

    This would make a great sitcom episode, I wish the television writers could be as creative as this shit.
