Don't you think if I did, I wouldn't pay for this to get done?


I don't know, OP, but when we moved, I asked my as yet unknown neighbor to help me move a piece of furniture, because I could not do it myself. He helped, and I thanked him profusely. My husband was at work, the furniture was blocking the front porch, and I thought the worse he could say was no... a decade later, we aren't friends, but we're good neighbors, and we help each other out regularly.


And I love that for you. Two months ago when I had an awful upper respiratory infection and was up all night for a week coughing, my next door neighbor banged on our shared wall and fake-coughed before screaming at me to shut up three nights in a row. So I don't really feel comfortable knocking on his door and asking for a favor. "Friendly neighbor" is not the vibe he's put out there.


It sounds like the “fake coughing” was a way to show you that he could hear you clearly every time you cough. It sounds a bit obnoxious but it must have been hard being impossible for him to sleep for an entire week but still needing to work, drive, etc.

Woah, way to be rude. The pp was only trying to help.

I am sure your "obnoxious neighborhood" vibe isn't helping things either.

And OP was supposed to do what, exactly, with this information? Are you thinking she chose to cough and just didn't realize her fun time was hard on someone else?

Are you related to the guy on the plan who had a tantrum because a baby was crying?

Are you sure you can just toss your old TV in the trash? That's highly discouraged where I live, we have to take such things to an e-waste dropoff center.
