Trespassing signs, etiquette, good & bad neighbors

[paulfun9]

Always have a dress ready to answer the door. Seem startled and say you were expecting someone else.

I don’t really feel I have the legs for a dress, but if it makes you feel good then who am I to judge!

I kind of like signs but not to the point of being junky. Official signs are the best. People somehow think the signs are not meant for them. So, in a way it's true, you might have to go to a physical method of keeping people out.

In fact, if you ever want to get some attention in a store. Go past the "Employees Only" or No unauthorized Entry, doors and just play stupid, or that it means nothing to you.

I used to like to answer the door in my underware if the JWs came to visit. Briefs, not boxers. Except for the gut, I probably look pretty damm good in a clingy short dress too.

Different resolution. The road mapping systems aren't as accurate due to costs of the higher resolution systems.

No, they are inaccurate due to the government changing road numbers two or three times and the mapping databases not keeping up with the changes.

No one can get to my place with GPS (on account of municipal restructuring/bungling) and no one listens when I tell them that. So now, unless I am in a hurry for someone to show up, I let them waste an hour driving around because they know better.

No.

This thread is bad enough as it is.

Don't take it there.

I don't know why some people get so irritated when someone feels different about something. Heck, it's not politics or religeon. :confused3:

My Dad is terrible for showing up unannounced and univited to friends, neighbours and even strangers. Mostly, just likes to freeload on hospitality.

BUT, INSISTS you call first before visiting him! Funny how people can be like that.

Who's irritated? Regarding my responses I was just expressing that I didn't understand the viewpoint. Doesn't make sense to me, but I'm not criticizing... just commenting.

Remember too that not everybody is always 'dressed for company' when out in their own yard that is not visible from public spaces. Unannounced visitors can lead to considerable embarrassment to all.

That's a risk you take and is easy to work around. Heck, unless it is bed time I'm never running around the house in a state where I'd be unwilling to answer the door. I would never expect complete privacy when outdoors even if I lived very remotely. Just think how great the gov's spy satellites are!!

Jeez, that's sad. I've had hundreds and hundreds of friends and family stop by unannounced in my life. I've had probably a dozen people come up and knock on my door and ask if I ever give permission to hunt on our remote property ( I like that they ask, but I already have someone hunting out place, my neighbor). I can pretty much count on one of my neighbors show up in my yard if I'm outside doing something. Happened just yesterday while my wife and I were cutting down a long-overdue-for-it tree. We always go back and forth between yards with our neighbors.

Out on our remote property, about every other time I'm out there, someone will see my truck and stop in and shoot the bologna with me.

I just cannot imagine what it's like to not have people stop by. :confused3:

There's a difference between trespassers (strangers trespassing) vs family and friends. This thread is about trespassers.

Of course, family and friends are going to know you're tolerance for visiting just as mine are. They're always welcome to visit. Trespassers aren't.

I don't know why this is so hard to understand.
