Complete this sentence with what you want to say to your neighbor, but won't.
Here is mine: Dear Neighbor, if we don't answer the phone please don't drive down here to see if we are home. We are, we are just ditching you due to your constant neediness.

So you decided to move out of you POS house and rent it too some crack head Rednecks. They haven't lived in the 'hood for two weeks and yet there has already been three visits by the police, one of which looked like an episode of Cops. Thanks for being such a douche bag.
Our meth house has been vacant now going on 3 years.
You're fine. It's the landlord that concerns me.

Living next to you is like living next to a kennel. You are the second renter there who thinks it's fine to leave your dog outside to bark for an hour or more at any hour of the day or night.
I like dogs but bring that farking yappy thing in before I call the association or animal control for fark's sake.
I had hoped that after a couple of weeks your little furry bag of yap would have gotten acclimated to the area and calmed the hell down but this has gone on for months.
Signed,
Your tired and very cranky neighbor

The other option is ear plugs.

Yes fire pits are fun but I have asthma and apparently you decided to burn at least half a cord of wood, which gave me a terrible asthma attack, so we shut the windows even though the house was still warm due to the hot sunny day. So of course our bedroom got too warm and DH had a sleep apnea event even though he's on a cpap machine, so we were forced to open the windows again, so we didn't get much sleep. Stop being asshats, mmmkay?

Just a thought...what would happen if you actually talked to your neighbor about the smoke?
I have a five minute rule for neighbors with noisy car stereos . They know someone calls the police but they don't know who. It took a while but these days it's very peaceful here. I'm a reasonable person as long as the other person is.
We have finally gotten a decent amount of rain and all the growing things are greening up nicely which means the fire danger has dropped to an acceptable level. My long weekend is coming up next week so be warned that on at least one of my days off I will likely have my fire pit burning most of the day. And since I will have to hang around to keep an eye on that I might as well have a fire going in the sauna all day as well.
Just wanted to give you some advanced warning in case you have to alter your lifestyle.

It's one thing to do something like that if you have a big property but our houses are about 10 feet apart and we're in a bit of a hollow surrounded by trees, so the smoke doesn't blow away easily. One neighbor cooks on the grill then doesn't put out the fire so it smoulders all night, even when there's a fire risk.
I would love to have AC but it would cost too much to retrofit the house and electricity here costs a fortune.

The bedroom windows are not big enough for a window unit AC, not even a mini one. We have a portable AC unit but it's so loud when it switches on and off (the AC, not the blower) that it wakes us repeatedly during the night, which means we're cool but exhausted the next day.
So we use it in the living room to combat the food cooking heat and overall heat of the kitchen and living room, which isn't ideal as we have to put the huge exhaust pipe out the front window of the living room.
