I’m the crazy lady at the bus stop. It’s not my property, obviously, but that doesn’t mean that I’m gonna stand by and watch kids do stupid shit on the property of other people who aren’t home and are unable to do something about it. Like, hello, maybe whacking that very expensive looking tree until all the bark comes off is not a good idea! Nor is pulling up all of the perfectly landscaped grass! These people didn’t ask for the county to place a bus stop with 20 freaking kids right in front of their house, and they don’t deserve to have their property mutiliated. Learn some fucking respect. Also, if I see two kids laying in the middle of the road who looking to be kicking the shit out of each other, I AM going to say something. Yes, I’m that crazy lady. Because believe me, if it was my kid laying in the middle of the road, for any reason, but especially because he was getting beat up, I would hope to hell any one of the five adults standing around would have the presence of mind to do something. Don’t look at me like that! Get out of the road before you get run over, and if you’re going to wrestle, go home and do it in your own! fucking! yard! I’m sorry, I can’t just let that shit slide. I’m a mother and a former teacher, and I WILL lay the smack down when necessary.

I love your posts!! They crack me up.

I really loathe those kinds of disrespectful little kids. I cannot take the attitudes. Especially from children & it makes it worse when there are no parents to take it out on. But I would’ve had no problem telling those little bastards to get off my property. I might’ve tried to tell them a little nicer than just “NO FISHING IN MY POND YOU LITTLE WRETCHES” but I probably would’ve made my demand very clear. And then hope the parents dare to come over….
I cannot affored to be sued. That’s one thing I take very seriously.

I would have just started sunbathing next to the pond. Naked. While playing satanic music LOUD. Because I’m passive aggressive and assholey like that. Okay, maybe I wouldn’t sunbathe naked….I couldn’t let the bible-thumpers see my dimpled thighs….but I would TOTALLY call up the nearest nudist colony and invite all of them over for naked fishing in my totally stocked pond. And then be sweet and apologetic to the neighbors like, “oh….I didn’t realize you wanted to have a party AT MY POND the same day as my nudist colony bash….maybe you should ask me before inviting people onto my property. And by the way, it will cost you $800 next time you want to throw a party by my pond. I’ll use the money for a lifeguard and clean up and restocking costs and to pay my insurance premiums which will surely go up with all the unattended children running around open water. Oh, by the way, does Jesus handle your CPR?”

Great story. I TOTALLY get where you’re comin’ from. Once I confronted some drunk, mariachi playing, dudes in a remote campground; in the middle of the night. Drunk mariachi music is LOUD; and irritating. My husband stayed in his sleeping bag. When I’m ticked I don’t think too well. I just don’t think people should be thoughtless and inconsiderate. It chaps my hide. Glad you didn’t play the “let’s just be nice and let it slide” card. I mean you can be nice but let’s be HONEST and up front eh? Neat property by the way!

totally reminds me- my son’s friends parents have a big sign behind their place that says “Trepassers will be Shot; Survivors will be Shot again” lol

Maybe they’re practicing to become fishers of men?

Anyway, I cannot believe the rudeness! I think that, had I been in your situation, my reaction would have been the same as yours. And my husband’s would have been the same as your husbands. But I would have marched all the kids back to the party and spoken to the adults right then and there – if I give my crazy time to ferment, there’s no telling what might happen, so everything must be dealt with immediately. But it should be noted that my husband is much better at smoothing things over than I am.

What a bunch of douches. I HATE when people’s rudeness makes you look like the bad person for doing the right thing.

I also hate when my righteous anger has no place to go.
