Fire Sale
From the department of concerns I never thought I'd have, my next door neighbors have taken to having frequent and large bonfires in their backyard. I would like to think this is a temporary situation, but they seem to have built some sort of bonfire-related contraption in the middle of the yard. I would also like to think they're just going to burn their own house down and learn an important lesson about the non-entertaining qualities of fire, but said contraption is situated only about six feet from my north wall. So now this is the subject of major discussions in my condo association, many of which are taking place in all caps. The proposed solutions so far are everything from politely asking them to stop to calling their landlord to anonymously calling the police. Personally, I'm thinking about just getting a fucking garden hose.
