Butthead
I can
sometimes be easily annoyed…maybe that is why Mrs. C calls me “Cranky.” Somethings I should let slide, but they just stick
in my craw.
We are
staying three weeks in a small apt. off a garage, under the main house, just off the beach. It is not fancy, but it is still a sweet
deal. Next door to our place is a gigantic
multi-million-dollar humongous house on the beach with multiple views of the
ocean. The owner of this home is very wealthy. He has everything, including a large belly and
the biggest head on the beach.
Apparently,
his shit has no odor. I call him Butthead. That is not a term of endearment.
Butthead’s
house is about four yards from our place.
He has several downspout water diverters. He could point the diverters toward the
street. He points them directly at our
house. Periodically I readjust
them. He points them back to our
place.
Butthead!
Four times
in the last two years he has parked his car in our driveway and directly behind
our cars such that if we wanted, we could not get out. He has a driveway that can park about 10
cars. When I tracked him down the first time
to move and not block us in, he did apologize and say he was only going to be
there for a minute because he was expecting a work truck to come to his
driveway soon. No problem, but why does
he think it is ok to inconvenience me so he would not be inconvenienced?
Butthead!
In my whole
life I have not once blocked another person’s driveway. Four times in two years…Butthead!
Yesterday he
was having some kind of sale for a charity (what a hero…with all
his money, just write a check!) Where was his stand
holding the sale goods? In front of his
driveway? Why no, it was blocking our car.
Dickhead's driveway just to the right
Butthead!
I had to
make him move so I could go to the store that I really didn’t want to go to.
Butthead!
At the end
of our block right in front of Butthead's house but not his driveway, are racks
for bicycles. I have never seen a
bicycle block his driveway. If there
was, bicycles are pretty easy to move.
Today I
noticed Butthead had a large chalk circle drawn in front of his driveway with
large chalk instructions in the circle, “DO
not block driveway with a bicycle…EVER.”
So, this Butthead
can block my car in with his giant SUV whenever it happens to be convenient for
him, but to make sure an eight-year-old doesn’t leave a bike at the end of his
driveway he leaves a message on the street.
Butthead!
Park right down at the end of your driveway so there is no room for him to pull in ??? People like that are SOOOO annoying.

ReplyDeleteTHE CRANKY OLD MAN Random thoughts and stuff from a cranky old man. Humor (maybe)and satire, mostly stuff from a confused head. I intend for this blog to be non-political. If I offer a political statement, rebuttals are permitted, however this blog is not for the unsolicited political opinions of others and as such those comments will be deleted and not published. Thank you.
Some people! And i know a few very weathly people who do write checks, but also do fundraising. He might be doing that also. For the rest, he’s very inconsiderate, i agree.
ReplyDeleteThe name BUTTHEAD seem to be correct!!
ReplyDeleteOnly slightly confused has a great solution for his car. Not sure what you could do about the yard sale. Butthead is too a nice name for that Jerk.
ReplyDeleteNext time he parks in your driveway, ask one of the other neighbors to park their car right behind his. And then you and that neighbot go for a long walk on the beach.
ReplyDeleteI could say that maybe he's used to having your driveway to himself when you're not there. But seeing the way he set up his charity sale goods, he's just trying to win a pissing contest. There was plenty of room for him to move that over without blocking his own driveway.
ReplyDeleteIt might be worth it to go buy a flea-market bicycle, just to abandon it in his driveway...
He is a Me Firster of the first rank.
ReplyDeleteDoes he have a monopoly on chalk? Get some yourself and mark "MINE" and "YOURS" on the street. Oh, and Home Depot sells cans of foam (that expands when it exits the can and hits the air) you use to seal around windows, etc to keep drafts out. I would imagine a cans worth could also plug up the end of a gutter downspout, too. Just sayin'. ;)
ReplyDeleteMy older brother is not butthead rich, he's butthead poor. He would do all of these and more, then blame everyone else for THEIR problem.
ReplyDeleteClearly, you need to write in front of your driveway, do notbever block this driveway. Period! Cannot imagine anyone so inconsideratey doing to your drive what he doesn’t want in his own.
ReplyDeleteSounds like Butthead would get a buttwhuppin’ if he lived around here.
ReplyDeleteYou calling him "Butthead" is being kind. I would have gone for something saltier.
ReplyDeleteDickhead has already been taken.
Delete'Shithead'?
DeleteI would have driven right through his stand of crap.
ReplyDeleteHeh; I like it. . .
DeleteWhat a moron. You have way more patience than me.
