At about 10 pm I hear fireworks and my dogs go nuts. July 9, keep in mind. I go outside, and the new renters a couple of houses down are shooting off fireworks in the street, which I have never seen anyone do in the 8 years that I have owned my house. We live in a hot, dry place, and you may have heard we have been having a bit of a drought. I had thought of police, but I really did not want the nuclear option immediately with someone new
So I walked down, said excuse me, and asked the guy to stop, and told him it was a fire hazard. (Lots of trees overhanging our street, and sparks were rising into the branches). In, brief, he was a dick about it, and said he would come scream at my house in the daytime. Sometimes, shit is just exhausting.

So in other words, you should have force-fed him one of those fireworks?

You did the right thing not calling the cops to start with. Sorry he was a dick. Hopefully they are too hungover to come by and yell at your house.

Scream at your house? What will that do? What does that even mean?

I had a guy threaten to “shove his foot up my ass” if I ever came back to “his property” aka publicly owned streets because I yelled at a dog that was loose and kept following me/acting aggressive to me and my dogs. The dog wasn't his.

Where I live, it’s not unheard of for people to “dispose” of leftover fireworks the week after.
But if he starts screaming at your house, you've got every right to actually call the cops.

What an ass! Leave the house out of it. What did it ever do to him?

Good neighbors are few and far in between.

I’ve been seriously worried for my yard/property. We’re on about day 10 of Independence Day celebrations (which, truly, last from Cinco de Mayo to Labor Day). I kind of didn’t water the yard at all this year since it’s just weeds anyway and one spark would turn it into a giant fireball. But hey, at least I have asbestos siding so the house might not catch immediately!

I have new next door neighbors in my townhouse. We have pretty thin walls. My last neighbor made a lot of noise and was a pain in general so when the place next door was unoccupied it was very relaxing.
These new neighbors have an annoying kid who randomly screams and cries, and a stereo that makes a shitload of bass hooked up to their TV and they watch TV all the time. I think the wife stays at home with the kid and watches a lot of TV. The bass comes through the wall all damn day.
Yesterday I knocked on the door, the kid yells “mom someone’s at the door,” mom doesn’t come to the door though. I rang the doorbell and she comes to the door, kinda hiding behind it like maybe she’s not quite dressed or something. I told her we’re really not happy with the bass coming through the wall all the time and asked her to turn down the subwoofer. She looked at me like she had no idea what I’m talking about. So I’m like, “your stereo, it’s way too loud, you have the TV on all the time and the bass comes right through the wall and it’s extremely irritating, turn it down please.”
Today when I woke up, bass coming through the wall like a motherfucker.

The night before the 4th this happened to me, someone may have yelled something about a 12 gauge aimed up their direction if it continued. It did not.

If you don’t have any pets, I’d be tempted to mount a infrasonic sound transducer to the wall and leave it on while you go to work.

It’s a rental, basically managed like an apartment complex. Actually after posting about that I talked to them again. They gave me some BS about it was a new stereo and he was just testing it out, and a couple hours the noise came back. I emailed the management company right after.
