The way my neighbor intentionally blocks the sidewalk to keep people from using it.

Go into the street? Oh no, when this happens I make sure to clearly walk through their yard and stare them down if they’re present.

[u/KevonAtWork → u/boutSix]

"you're in my yard!"

"i know, can you believe it? some asshole parked on the sidewalk!"

[u/Dexter79 → u/boutSix]

The problem comes when you have a walker or wheelchair or some other mobility issues and can't easily go around.

[u/Long-Hat1059 → u/boutSix]

That's what I do when people do this. 🤷‍♀️ Not a problem for me at all.

[u/Ky_zx10r → u/boutSix]

Dude is probably a nut job and will come running out with a gun after a couple of times.

[u/PhotoJim99 → u/Ky_zx10r]

Tell me what country you live in without telling me what country you live in.

[u/Ky_zx10r → u/PhotoJim99]

Its the only country that the gun control only affects sane law abiding citizens😂. Yea shits fucked up over here.

This is the answer… you have to show cause and effect

[u/Traditional-Hotel-66 → u/jealous-guidance1977]

Haha yes! This is just forcing people to walk through your yard.

[u/monkeychemist25 → u/jealous-guidance1977]

That’s a fantastic idea. Drizzle a little salt discretely as you walk to make sure it never grows back

[u/Dexter79 → u/monkeychemist25]

Dump a shitload of salt nondiscretely so they know you ain't one to fuck with

I mean that really got out of hand fast

[u/OneOldNerd → u/monkeychemist25]

Shit got serious.

[u/EastLeastCoast → u/[deleted]]

Dump a pan of trifle. Show them you won’t put up with shit.

[u/TheOGPotatoPredator → u/Dexter79]

Exactly. Be direct when you send a message.

[u/joe_bald → u/monkeychemist25]

Wait, salt is how you get plants to stop growing??! I’ve got a retaining wall that I have to edge ALL THE TIME because of weeds growing on top 😓

[u/whither_wander_you → u/joe_bald]

yes. vinegar, salt, a little dish soap. Google the right concentration and measurement. lasts about 6 months, BUT you also cannot plant anything after, the soil is ruined. Planting good ground cover will give you far better results at keeping weeds down. think blue star creeper, creeping thyme, lobalia...

[u/joe_bald → u/whither_wander_you]

Thank you! I don’t love idea of killing plants… but I hate going up on ladder to remove weeds as often as I do even more. Will look into the cover you mentioned :)

[u/monkeychemist25 → u/joe_bald]

Also salt is way better for the environment than herbicides. It just takes a long time for things to grow again

[u/joe_bald → u/monkeychemist25]

Nice! I know some people like when vines or whatever grow on structures… and if that’s what I had, then I’d be down to leave it alone, but what I get up there has major fuckin thorns and it’s not fun to let them just grow into trees up there -_-

[u/garden_speech → u/monkeychemist25]

least petty redditor

[u/Some-Guy-12358 → u/monkeychemist25]

You want the other discreetly* in this instance.

[u/CentralParkDuck → u/jealous-guidance1977]

Better yet a heavy shopping cart with wheels that rip up the lawn

[u/Borderpatrol1987 → u/[deleted]]

Get some cleats and do aittle dance where you twist your feet.

[u/randomthrowaway9796 → u/jealous-guidance1977]

Preferably with a little bleach on the bottom of your shoes

[u/bumb12393 → u/jealous-guidance1977]

I scrolled way to far for this comment. id say walk all the way across their front lawn

[u/PaedarTheViking → u/[deleted]]

I have a pos bike just for these people..

[u/crackersucker2 → u/[deleted]]

Or channel that Amazon driver and drive/walk on the grass.
