Awkward situation

Dead · 02-27-2004, 04:44 PM

My gay neighbors moved out yesterday and the new people are moving in right now. Its garbage day here (you americans can substiute "garbage" with "trash" if that helps) and our garbage can was sitting on the street. They came along and took it up off the curb onto their side of the front lawn area. And now I have to go to work and pass by. It's bad enough that I'd have to say hi, but now I have to say "Hi, give me back my can." This is undesirable. I met the wife last night and she was hot.

These are the kinds of things I worry about.

Just wanted to be considerate. I almost dropped in a "rubbish" reference for the brits as well.

Well I've solved my quandry by putting off work until tomorrow so I won't have to go out there and pass by them. This is fine because I was feeling shitty and unmotivated for work ever since I woke up today.

Netphoria is cool.

Eh? Just go to the house and say 'hey dudes, I think you took in my garbage can by mistake.' Then do this :

Dude. So... wait. You're feeling awkward because you have to go ask for your garbage can back? I thought this was gonna be about your new neighbours having to throw out all of the previous gay neighbour's porns and butt-plugs on garbage day. And that maybe they decided it would be funny if they put the aforementioned objects in YOUR garbage can, and when the garbage men came to pick it up, you were just leaving the house and then the garbage men thought you were fruity and kinky.

Now THAT'S awkward.

Thanks for putting things into perspective, I guess its all relative.

That's a great idea but I'm the type of person who worries and stresses over unimportant stuff like this.

If I had decided to go to work today afterall I would have just pulled your routine and been fine. I might not have done that anime-type smiley too well though.

Actually I would have waited til nobody was outside and then sneak over and grab it and then leave.

Why don't you just wait until next garbage day and take it back before they do?

That would involve them using my can for a week which I still have the lid for, and then letting them bond with it, and then stealing it a week later, that's just not the best plan...

how about you realize its not a big deal and act like you got a pair and just talk to them?? ideally, you'd grow a pair, but small steps..

I'm saying.. that's what I would have done if I had actually gone to work today and ran into them. But I'm putting it off til tomorrow.

I met the wife last night and was very sociable. She's hot but I saw the guy today and was young and attractive. Plus there are kids involved. I guess I won't pursue anything there.

Dead · 02-27-2004, 06:08 PM

Well I just looked outside and their car was gone so I got booted up and walked out there, grabbed my can, and took it back. The broken arrow has been returned. Thank you.

meow · 02-27-2004, 07:19 PM

meow · 02-27-2004, 07:31 PM
