Sisyphus: Busybody Neighbors Suck
Sisyphus:
I had a car quit on me recently. It was not worth funneling more money
into it so we parked it out front letting the new one occupy that space
in the garage. We spent a couple days evaluating how best to unload it
when damned if one of my neighbors didn’t call the cops saying it was
abandoned. I thought that was pretty chicken shyt since no one
complained to me about it first. I think I’d rather have you as a
neighbor Lynne, not that I’d leave a car parked for two years, but you
seem to have much more patient than the busybodies I have.
Question: Sisyphus brings up something I’ve been wondering about. As I listen to Scanner Traffic, I’m struck by the number of times per day that people sick the cops on others, neighbors on neighbors and motorists on other motorists, via cell phones. Have we become a nation of busybodies?
