But there was a "warning police told a friend" people claiming to come to your house to give you free masks from a government program. They ask you to try it on, turns out it is soaked in something to knock you out. Then they rob your house or kidnap you for white sex slavery.
That made me lol.

My all time favorite Nextdoor post: "Can someone make the wind stop blowing?" Many comments followed regarding the poster's mental state and alcohol and/or drug intake.

RIP Nextdoor. It used to be a decent place to get community updates, local recs, and yard sale virtually. Then it became a social/political soap box to complain about issues of the day. Then a ton of covid shaming. Now it's basically a hoarder house combined with chain letters, prayer circle requests, and bragging about you and your grandkids.
