What an A-hole. Guess he can’t afford a saw.

And those damn screws.

    I wish I was lucky enough to be a homeowner complaining about 2 mismatched fenceposts

      The 3 inch nails protruding through the rails are much more complaint-worthy than the too-tall pickets.

      I don’t know if you meant for it to come off this way or not, but to me it reads like you’re saying people who own homes shouldn’t complain about small things. Someone else always has it worse. That doesn’t mean those who are better off have no right to complain about things that annoy them (especially on the community made for complaining about mildly infuriating things).

        I think it’s the fact OP is calling their neighbor an asshole for fixing their fence in a less than perfect way that really irked me. I get annoyed when privileged people want to play the victim; it’s something I know I should work on, but right now it’s a part of my character.

          I get you. Until I noticed the spiked aspect of the new boards I didn’t see the problem. A repaired fence > unrepaired fence. I think it’s great.
