Stupid things you saw on Nextdoor

This conversation brings up an interest observation in my neighborhood. In a 2 block area, there are prob 10 households where we are all good friends and chat all the time. The rest post often on Nextdoor.

We got much needed speed control in a couple of key areas of our neighborhood by talking to our neighbors, on the Internet.

Fireworks = gunshots
car backfire = gunshots
neighbor slams a door= gunshots

And of of course the resident expert who suggests everyone call Jeffco sheriff right away so they can track all the calls to find out where the shooting is taking place- their super secret technology can pinpoint the exact location of the shots from the calls.

In Penrose, nobody would report the gunshots- because it's just somebody getting practice... or it's Ft. Carson [Coffee]

Oh, come on, you could have just told them your name was Hugh Jorgan. Or Dick Leaky. Mike Hunt. Hugh G. Rection. Dick Hertz.

Have fun with it. :D

PS: If you ever see someone on an internet forum named "Dick Leaky" it's probably me. I got that from an old Beavis and Butthead episode. [ROFL2]

I live half a mile north of the Aurora PD gun range. It's only weird when you DON'T hear gunfire, at least from 0600 to 2200.

Another funny thing is people putting up way too much information. My neighbor tells rambling stories with way too much information (all with terrible spelling and grammar), but I don't want to post any of his stuff because he's my neighbor.

Should make private investigator's and BGC folks job more interesting.

We have a neighbor selling used shoes !!!!
As far as using a name, mine is Rusty Shackleford.

Next door provided pure gold.

Yep, there is one lady who has been looking for her coyote happy meal sized dog since JULY, and another who reposts her same used kid's clothing every other day.
