I closed a couple weeks ago and now FFFFUUUUU!!

I was just googling because I didn't know the word "hedge" and I found this:
A hedge between keeps friendship green :lol:

I have a hedge and it's too high for anybody to jump over it / throw shit in the garden, hehe. Also the electric barb wire might have to do with it ;)
 
Our neighbor's kid at my old house used to practice field hockey with golf balls. All the time they'd end up in my yard and I'd nail them with the lawnmower.

So I got in the habit of going outside with my 9 iron before cutting the grass, any golf ball I'd find I'd chip back over the fence, trying to land it in their pool and hear a satisfying PLOP.
 
Thankfully I only have a neighbor on one side of me and about 400 acres of state forest and private woodlands on the other three sides. However, my one neighbor unfortunately has the worst house and neighbors on our road on the other side of her house - I'm talking the biggest (pardon the term) "white" trash household that just drags down the road as a whole. All the other houses on my road (only 6 besides mine on the end), keep decent houses, nice and clean, mowed lawns, trash free yards and generally well maintained houses. Then you have the local eyesore right in the middle of the 7 houses we have a house with it's yard littered with rusted cars (8 of them I think) with half their parts removed, 3 old tow-able trailers that I don't think a homeless person would choose to live in, various piles of household appliances and other stuff that should have gone to the dump long ago, a shed (a polite term for the pile of wood they store the lawnmower they never use under) that partially tipped over long ago, and the list of eyesores keeps going with the pièce de résistance being the huge Italian marble fountain they placed in the center of their front yard 10 years ago and never got the water flowing on - it's now filled with stagnant rain water and small tree growth that just attracts mosquitoes and other insects; I'm not lying or shitting you - it's a big water fountain like you would see in front of an Italian style villa smack dab in front of a worn down house with a yard full of trash. I count my blessing each day that my neighbors house separates my yard from that one and thankfully it's about 4 acres of land that separates us too.

So - long story short - I feel your pain.
 
Thankfully non of my nieghbors have shit hole houses. It's a nice little dead end street actually with a bunch of ranch style houses (mind included).

Actually I feel bad for my one neighbor as the side of my carport that faces him is ugly as shit and I can't fix the eye sore right away. There is a bit of a hedge covering though so I suppose it's cool.

On another note, FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK CHEAP SHITTY GARBAGE LOOKING WOOD PANELING AND THE IDIOTS THAT THOUGHT IT LOOKED GOOD (this is the shitty shit I found behind said garbage):

I'm stoked that the carpet to the left of that photo is getting yanked out this weekend though. Gonna throw down some oak flooring, carpet in high traffic areas: FFFFFUUUUUUU
 
Oh and I didn't mention in the OP what said rope did to my lawnmower:

Threw the drive belt off. :(

Threw the belt that runs the self propelled aspect off.

So rope is now cut off, drive belt is back on... I probably have to either take in or find the self propelled area and get that back on again.

SHIT SUCKS.
