that's pretty much what my car is, which is why i haven't been more upset about it. 1995 avalon with 190,000 miles on it... but it's still my property which is enough to lite a fire

Just slip a note under their door with your phone number and talk it out. I remember a revenge thread over at SA that ended VERY badly.

don't really have proof that they did it... I didn't see them, neither did anyone else. Obviously it was. Anyways, I'm going to set up a webcam since I can see their place and my car from my girls window.

you have the note telling you not to park in front of their house...

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Regardless of whether you handle this by ignoring it, calling the police, whatever, I'd maybe consider a future visit to this person's house for recreational fun...such as weed killer applied in 4-letter word configurations....

Better yet, try fertilizer. Burns a nasty patch into the lawn at first, but then for the next few years... there's always that bit of the lawn that's just greener than the rest.

That sounds like the one where the neighbor was stealing cable from him. He disconnected it. They reconnected it. He disconnected it. They reconnected it. He disconnected it and plugged it into an electrical socket. Their house burned down.

Seriously... call the police.

I am sick of people doing stupid sh|t like this and the victims just "deal" with it.

Don't stoop to their criminal level. I know it's not a big deal, but what if he kicked your door in or keyed your car?

It is a public street. You can park there if you like, as long as you aren't in front of the driveway or anything.

Tell the cops, that person has no right to put stuff all over your car because you parked in "his" space on the public street.

What's he doing with that much hobby glue? must be one hell of a model airplane enthusiast...

Here's what you do: buy some model airplanes, cars, boats, etc at the hobby store, take the pieces out of their boxes and destroy them. scatter the remains all over his lawn.

O the Humanity!!! ;)

Or, you could assemble them all incorrectly, and leave them on his lawn. That would probably aggravate him just as much

You should have called the police at the first gluing. You should still call the police. Don't take matters into your own hands cause the crazy neighbor might then be the one to call the cops on you and you could get shafted.

Whatever you do, do NOT retailiate and vandalize their property!

Photograph EVERYTHING, call the police and get a POLICE REPORT. Call your insurance company (if you have comprehensive) and tell them the story and fax the police report to them. Does your windshield have any chips or stars? Get it ALL fixed. Call a detailer and get your car cleaned and let the insurance company and police deal with this IDIOT!

People that take stuff out on other people's belongings (or poison their unleashed pets!) are fvcking cowards! Do NOT let this fvcking asshole get away with this sh!t! :|

I did not read the whole thread, but the obvious solution is to burn his house down.

No neighbors = no problem.

save all the notes - tape all night long with a camcorder with night vision zoomed in, make sure he is very recognizable.

don.
