holy fuck i hate having boomer neighbors
i bought out in the suburbs in a SFH subdivision, homes are ~30 years old, 4+ bedrooms on half acre lots
within 6 months of moving in, 2 of the neighbors also sold their homes, and i thought "yay, the neighborhood is turning"... and the homes both sold for 25k above asking
then they move in and it's a 74 year old and 65 year old buying a 4 bedroom house for themselves
i searched property records and found that literally every house on my street was occupied by boomers.... about 20 homes, no one is within 30 years of my age
a nice subdivision, community parks/playgrounds, quiet, safe, 95%+ white people, 5 star schools, except it's a literal retirement community
they won't leave, they won't die, they are still blocking younger generations from affording single family homes
the worst thing about boomer neighbors is that they know their time on earth is limited at this point, so they'll behave however the fuck they want
one of my neighbors installed wind chimes in their front yard, CLANK CLANK CLANK every fucking day
the other neighbor "didn't want to pick up leaves" and cut down half of the tree in my backyard
every one of them plays music on their patios in the summer
they don't care to be considerate.... the only way to fight it is to be even more inconsiderate
ended up buying wind chimes that were even louder than dumb fuck boomer's across the street
ended up getting the loudest bluetooth speaker i could find, and when i can hear their music, kendrick lamar comes on
another neighbor decided "i like using your backyard as a cut through" and would leave their off leash dog outside barking all day, privacy fence went up and i blast a dog whistle through a bluetooth speaker
boomers have no children, they are bored, and they have zero issues starting neighbor drama, do NOT buy near them, buy near millennial families who are too busy to annoy you, or just get a shit ton of land because all neighbors suck

Having non-boomer neighbors wouldn't be much better. Living in the suburbs is shit.

>>80293Only thing worse than this is that they're beginning to buy up estates and build new houses with dodgy Chinese building companies, made of breadsticks.

>>80355>made of breadsticks i highly doubt that they're building structures out of breadsticks, could you post sauce to this claim?

>>80293Millennial ninja neighbor family on one side have pitbulls which bit me and whose shit smells almost as bad as the chemical laundry detergents that waft into my yard. Millennial white trash who used to live on other side were always yelling at their kids and fighting. I'm millennial and I cough loudly while smoking outside. My boomer retired marine neighbor who works on his lawn hates us all. But I hate him for wasting environmental resources on lawn care. So it goes.

>>106910His lawn is an act of defiance toward a world thats gone to hell. He didn't choose this nightmare future the decisions were made above his head. That manicured patch of green is worth its weight in co2 and then some because of what it represents. Its a revolt against the pitmommy, the shit parents and its a revolt against your performative greenwashing faggotry. If you want to outdo him maybe grow some veggies, compost your scraps and collect rainwater. But you won't. You'll gorge yourself at the trough of Chinese consumer goods and industrial food trucked across your country by wasteful carbon intensive supply chains. Then you'll judge the boomer for his lawn as if youre any better. Because youre a fag.

>>107823I have been obsessively composting for years and this year helped landlord/ex/roommate grow a vegetable garden. I put a jar under the dripping sink and used the water for cleaning later. Turning off lights obsessively. I walk everywhere. I have shit in a hole I dug myself hundreds of times and pissed outside thousands, saving tens of thousands of gallons of water

>>107828>I have shit in a hole I dug myself hundreds of times and pissed outside thousands, saving tens of thousands of gallons of waterThat's uh, very Indian of you. You know the water doesn't disappear when it goes down the toilet right? You aren't "saving" water you're just creating a public disturbance by shitting on the ground. Even our resident shit spammer allegedly uses a toilet.

>>107832Most people with dogs simply let their dogs outside to shit on the ground. It doesn't cause any issues at all. Our friend here doubtlessly has higher quality poop than the average dog, so his poop is almost certainly harmless (or even beneficial) for the environment
No.107838
>>107828You are actually walking the walk. I kneel. Its worth considering that modern LED lighting is tremendously efficient, we date ourselves with our preoccupation over lights being left on. In some ways the embodied carbon wasted by cycling them on and off, wearing them out till they require replacement, may be worse than leaving them on till you're done in that part of your house.
>>107833Human shit contains stuff thats uniquely bad for humans, its way worse than dog poo. You have to be careful what's downhill from your shithole to avoid water contamination and so forth. Sanitation is important if youre going to do what this guys doing but I have to assume he knows this if he's that committed and has taken precautions. I'm pretty offgrid but even I use a septic system.

>>107832You think the hole I used to shit in was near where people live or something? And , digging a 6 foot deep hole is not the ground.
Have to admit once or twice I skipped washing hands in the winter cuz washing hands with 40 degree water in 10 degree air doesn't feel good. Also the soap I had that whole time was disgusting. I have much less bad soap now
