[QUOTE="dgiharris, post: 67059494, member: 322579"] Neighbor didn't know it was me, hence the word anonymous. Besides, I spent $65 of my own money trying to solve the problem as well as provided her with reasonable alternatives. So I consider my dog anecdote reasonable. I mean, I like dogs and didn't want to hurt it, but I'm not going to put up with not sleeping just because she can't control her dog. I'm just not one to whine and complain about a problem I can solve. For instance, parking is a problem in my neighborhood, only so much space to park. Well, there were a few people who would double park all the time taking up two parking spaces. So, I took it upon myself to write them a ticket. Ticket simply said, "Double parking is selfish and rude, if you double park again, I'm going to slash your tires." they never double parked again. Problem solved. I know, it seems extreme but I don't think so. To me, obsessing about something and whining and complaining about a problem you can fix seems more extreme to me. I'm just not one to put up with certain things. I think it is unreasonable for my next door neighbor to harbor a hundred snakes. However, I will say this though. If the ball pythons are no threat to my children and he proves to me that there is virtually a 0% chance of his snakes getting out AND [B]his snakes never get out[/B], then I'm not going to care. I mean, if I never see them and they don't impact my life in any way shape or form, then as far as I'm concerned they don't exist and I don't care. [/QUOTE]
