There's a baby crying in my backyard

mork · February 2012

I'm just sitting in my dining room minding my own business and I hear these clear as day cries from what sounds like my backyard. WTF? Uhg. I have never been able to hear the neighbors that well. The kid must've been really loud to hear it so clearly here. Cue the stereo on high volume.

I hate that! I used to have neighbors below us that had a baby/toddler that cried all the damn time. I could here it all the time.

That's annoying on so many levels.

I know that one day (hopefully) I'll be that lady with the screaming baby, but until then, I feel it's my prerogative as a childless shrew to verbally bash their ill-behaved children and their bad parenting skills. With that said:

I hope they can shut their kid up!! Big Smile

Big hugs to you lady, that kind of stuff can be so hard.

As for the stereo, crank that bad boy up!

Ok, so who all has seen one to many protect yourself from thugs messages and saw the title of this post and in a fit of worry thought "Oh no! Mork don't go outside in case it's a group of thugs or a serial rapist trying to lure you with a fake crying baby so they can steal you!"

::Raises hand::

Guilty.

::Sits down on paranoia bench::

First I laughed, and then I remembered that a cop actually came around our neighborhood last summer telling us not to fall for this, as it had been happening in the area (even though I live in one of the "best places to live in the USA"). Indifferent The paranoia in me is glad I didn't go outside, even though it was still light out.
