Which DUer is most likely to be spotted yelling, "HEY YOU KIDS, GET OFF MY LAWN"

[Pierre.Suave]

:P

Tell us your guesses and reasons too if you like.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. Me. I'm old and cranky and I hate when there are kids on my lawn.

[Pierre.Suave]

4. LOL

you need a rocking chair, a shotgun, and a porch.

:P

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. I have all of those things.

This is my porch. Note the rocking chair.


I also own a 12-gauge shotgun.

I'm ready.

[Pierre.Suave]

8. Must remember Ocelot is armed...

and not to make her mad, and by all means, stay the hell off her lawn.

[mainegreen]

2. Yeah, I would do it. Proudly.

Damned kids.

[MrPerson]

3. You're lucky, you've got a lawn. When I was a kid.....

[Pierre.Suave]

5. HAHA

[BeachBaby]

7. Oh, this is too easy.

Temeah.

Reasons? Because he told me he's looking forward to the day when he is an official curmudgeon. :)

[TZ]

9. Heh. ASFAIK he's already there...

Yeah when I met him last spring he kept referring to the rest of us at the meetup as "You kids"....:rofl:

[BeachBaby]

11. Yeah, well....

I told him that if he ever tries that shit with me, I'm going to grab one of his own cats and throw it at him.

If the old man wants to fuck with the kids, he's gotta pay the price, I always say. ;)

[Pierre.Suave]

10. LOL

But he would be a funny curmudgeon.

[Ava]

12. Skittles

of course she'd throw in "YOU WANT, I'LL KICK YOUR ASS"

[Pierre.Suave]

13. HAHAHA

yeah, no doubt they kids would RUN too...

:P

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. My dear Pierre.Suave!

Well...

Since I have neither a front porch, nor a lawn...

I can't do it!

:cry:

[Pierre.Suave]

21. Thats probably a good thing Peggy

you don't seem like the yelling type anyway.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. Actually, I can yell...

Believe it or not, I have a terrible temper...

Not many have seen it...

I've never unleashed it here... :scared:

[Pierre.Suave]

23. ...

:scared:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. Hey...

You have nothing to worry about, sweetie...

I promise, I will never yell at you.

OK?

You are a sweetheart...

:hug:

[Pierre.Suave]

25. I know Peggy

I was kidding.

Thank you.

[kentauros]

55. Technically all you need is

an aluminum folding lawn chair, an umbrella or a cane and a place to set up in front of your front door. Put down a piece of astroturf and you're set! :P

[CaliforniaPeggy]

58. My dear kentauros!

I could do all that...

But all we have in the front of the house are two driveways, and a raised planter with a large jacaranda tree between them!

I believe the driveway would look pretty odd with astroturf on it! And both driveways would look even stranger!

:P

[TZ]

15. This is going to sound weird but my cat Smokie

I swear if she could talk she'd be saying that to her sister all the time....She has such a curmudgeonly face...

:rofl:

[Pierre.Suave]

20. I like your cat

he looks cool.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

16. Rabrrrrrr would be a good candidate, too.

Except that he probably has land mines and Burmese tiger traps and a moat and cauldrons of boiling oil, so he doesn't have to sit on the porch with a shotgun.

:rofl:

[Pierre.Suave]

18. HAHAHAHA

how true!

:rofl:

[Rabrrrrrr]

42. Damn right! Like I'm gonna give 'em a fucking warning by shouting first.

:eyes:

[Pierre.Suave]

43. HAHAHA

:rofl:

[kentauros]

56. Just put a couple of big Tesla coils at the front gate

[BeachBaby]

17. DS1 I think is inevitably a candidate.

[Pierre.Suave]

19. NO doubt

!

[GOPisEvil]

26. I never said it, but I thought it a few times.

Now I don't have a lawn. :D

[Pierre.Suave]

27. Now you have incentive to get one...

:rofl:

[GOPisEvil]

28. It is in the plan.

Now if it were in the budget... ;)

[kentauros]

57. grasspave

instead of a driveway or walk

:D

[Lady Effingbroke]

29. Me. If I had a lawn.

Lucky for the kids that I don't. :D

[LeftyMom]

30. flvegan. Because it's a lot of paperwork when the dogs eat one of the neighbor kids.

:shrug:

[sasquatch]

48. You mean their favorite treat: small human

:rofl:

[AlCzervik]

31. i prefer "Hey kids, shut the hell up"

they're on my drive way all the time with the red wagon i gave them or roller blades, my drive way is way slanted so it's fun to watch the hilarity ensue, okay fun for me,

[Pierre.Suave]

32. LOL

hella fun I bet.

[AlCzervik]

33. you ain't lying.

:D

[madinmaryland]

34. Get off my lawn, PIKER. RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!

:P

[Pierre.Suave]

35. yeah thats right

I am on your lawn, and I aint movin...

you got a problem with that?

[Left Is Write]

36. If it's not Rabrrrrrr, it must be Left Is Write.

[Pierre.Suave]

37. You?

No way. I am not buying it.

[Left Is Write]

38. You're probably right...

I am neither as crotchety nor as cranky as I pretend to be. :)

[Pierre.Suave]

47. Don't worry

your secret is safe with me.

;)

[old mark]

39. Me, and I don't have a lawn anymore.

We tore it up and put the whole thing in mulch.

But who wants to yell," Get off my mulch!"
(I do, however have a porch, a rocker and a shotgun.)
mark

[Pierre.Suave]

46. well, as long as they can't tell the difference

why announce it.

[Blue Diadem]

40. ME! Except it's usually Don't Pee on my trees or don't

ride your snowmobiles on my lawn or don't ride your minibikes on my lawn. A couple times it was No, you can't drive your truck on my lawn.

[Pierre.Suave]

45. What the hell?

Seriously?

[Blue Diadem]

50. Yes I'm serious.

We're at the edge of a rural village. Every few years we have to educate the newly turned tweens/teens that our yard is not their recreation area and bathroom. The last mini-bike rider was pretty young. I never did find out who he was or where he came from. My granddaughter didn't recognize him either. He heard me though after he almost crashed into our car and then came back and almost hit our pine tree.

The pee situation just hasn't been my arborvitae trees either, a neighbor's garage has an awful discolored spot on the light color brick from kids using it as their urinal.

[femmocrat]

41. This thread reminds me of GormyCuss!

Is he (I think he's a "he") still around? I always liked that name. It sounds like someone who would chase kids off their lawn.

[Pierre.Suave]

44. I liked that name too

I wonder if he(?) is still here?

[TZ]

51. Yes.

and I'm thinking that Gormy Cuss is a she actually...:)

[crimsonblue]

49. California Peggy.. n/t

[kentauros]

53. lol!

:rofl:

Now that's funny!

[kentauros]

52. me.

To quote Eilerson (the archeologist on Crusade)

Eilerson: I hate it when I go to movies with kids in the audience, because there is always someone there that tells me I can't kill them when they get loud! Now, who makes up these rules anyway...

[Lucian]

54. The first name that popped in my head was Rabrrrrrr.

[ProfessorGAC]

59. That Would Be Me

My wife and i are insane about landscaping, flowers, bushes, and so on and so on. Geez, i've trained my dog to pee on the street so it doesn't burn the grass!

I don't think anybody here would be as likely to yell at the kids as i would be.
GAC

[WinkyDink]

60. ME!!! 'Cause I've done it. I'm extremely territorial.
