There is a school of thought that dictates that you should introduce yourself to your neighbors as soon as you move in, and try to maintain an amicable relationship with them.
There is a also a school of thought that people should mind their own damn business and leave a person to their own devices.
Unfortunately extremes in either direction can be a bad thing. If you don’t know your neighbors then when a situation arises in which you are forced to interact with them you will be caught off guard.
Take this situation, that a friend of mine recently described when he allowed a neighbor to borrow his restroom facilities.
**Knock Knock**
Man: Yes?
Woman: Excuse me, I live upstairs and my apartment’s bathroom is being worked on. Can I use yours please?
Man: Oh, sure. Please go ahead.
Woman: Thank you.
Sounds innocent enough, right? Well, lets revisit that scene about 10 minutes later.
Woman: Excuse me, where do you keep your poop stick?
Man: Poop stick?Woman: Yes. A stick for pushing the poop down when its too big for the drain… I’ll go get mine.
Man: Oh wow.
So my question is… is a poop stick a common household item? Can it also be used to club rodents and punish your children? Can it be used to club children and punish your rodents?
Do you rinse it off when you’re done?
My mind reels.
