I keep my yard manicured and well-kept at all times. I don't have any trees b/c I don't feel like constantly raking throughout fall/winter months. Well the people across the street have 2 large Magnolia trees that drop their leaves like crazy and they NEVER rake these up. Of course, inevitably, when it's windy, their leaves blow onto my lawn. We're not talking a small amount of leaves here either.
I want to get my blower out and blow them back into their yard, but my wife thinks I'm being an a-hole. I told her that it's their leaves and I'm just giving them back. What would yall do?

Pick them up one at a time and nail them to their front door.

Won't they just blow back into your yard again?

Sounds like you'd be making more work for yourself.

Wait till he's mowing with his noise cancelling headphones on and blind-side him.

Rake it up, rake it up (rake it up, rake it up)

Mulch them up. It’s good for your yard.

Quit being a pansy.

Are the leaves drunk and asking for money to buy more sap?

You seem like a reasonable, level-headed guy.

You're gonna have to build a wall.

Make your yard great again.

Obviously you need to napalm their house and trees.

I see nothing wrong with blowing them back into their yard, but there's something to be said for keeping the peace. Good fences make good neighbors. I use a mulching lawnmower to take care of my leaves. Or burn em.

Am I just that a-hole neighbor or is 99% of this board terrified to speak to the people that live around them?

Bring out the bama in yourself and poison those trees.
