A Neighbor Lawn Chair War That Won't Die...Reaches Climax?
Our favorite neighbor "lawn chair" warriors are at it again -- Paul and John. But this time with a twist. Frustrated John seems to have turned the tables on freakazoid neighbor-tormentor, Paul...and John is not alone. For context, we've linked below to the earlier email chains between these guys, already posted on Burbia.
For those interested in the backstory, a quick recap:
- Freak neighbor [Paul] complained about his normal neighbor [John] keeping a couple lawn chairs on John's own lawn. John replied with what you'd expect: STFU and, by the way, worry about your own yard which is basically a sh*t-hole.
- Unsatisfied & coming undone, Paul continued -- with a barrage of messages that included a comical "settlement offer" allowing John to keep only 1 lawn chair on his own lawn. John's response: "No"...and then to erect lawn chair towers in his backyard, in addition to discovering for Paul (& town authorities) a leaking underground oil tank on Paul's yard. Not good for Paul.
- Paul seemed to cave -- except, unable to really let go, he demanded that John stop leaving a single garbage can outside John's house and repeated his ask that John only use 1 lawn chair. John responded...by taunting Paul with threats of returning to his [John's] love of outdoor welding and demolition and refusing to accomodate Paul until essentially Paul acted like a normal human being.
Here below is the 4th exchange between these 2 combatants, a week or two after their last exchange and this time John initiating the contact in the hope of finally "resolving" the dispute.
