This here. However, not everyone thinks this way.

I go in a very crowded area. There are some real territorial dipshits out there that try to take over huge areas, put ladders out for every family on their rented apartment whether they will be used or not, and argue with anyone trying to get through or encroach on “their space.” Those people suck.

I go out there very early am and make friends with the guys they pay to watch their shite. By being friendly and not an a-hole, I get new friends and they get a new friend. I find some open real estate and put out my couple of step ladders for the kids l, some chairs and a table. And have a nice little spot. I don’t get mad if people cut through. In fact, I’ll
Move shite to make a path for them because that’s better than someone getting stuck, falling over and knocking shite down.

I don’t get mad if someone uses a ladder no one else is using. I don’t get mad if someone sits in one of my chairs.

Last year for bacchus, the douches from the apartment next door had about 50 ladders set up. No one was there. Literally no one. We folded up our chairs and invited anyone interested to use a ladder and watch. Let a nice family from Cali that way. Met a nice lesbian couple that asked if they could buy a shot of vodka. I said no. You can have a cocktail though, come on in.

Point is it’s a fricking party. People need to relax and not be assholes. That’s goes both ways. There is plenty of space for everyone.
