Sometimes in life, the only thing you can do is laugh it off...
And it’s usually best to do this when you get a demand that is so ridiculous that the only thing you can do is chuckle and shake your head.
You know what I’m talking about, right?
Sure!
We’ve all been there at some point.
In today’s story, a man explained why he got a good laugh because his neighbor sent him a letter that he just couldn’t believe.
Let’s take a look!
Laughing at Neighbor’s “Demand Letter.”
“I live in a house that sits on approximately 5 acres.
The entire property is fenced and behind the house there is a lot of vegetation.
Approximately 10 feet inside the fence are shrubs that can grow in the 10 to 15 foot tall size and approximately 30 inside the fence are trees that can grow to the 50 to 60 foot range.
All are mostly mature now and none hang over the property line at all.
What was this all about…?
I got a certified letter from my neighbor that is titled “Demand Letter.” (No attorney or anything, just from the neighbor.)
It states that the growth of my shrubs and trees have negatively affected the views that existed when they bought the house a few years ago.
Hahahaha!
Their demand says I have 60 days to restore their view to original or face legal action.
I have already contacted the governing authority and an attorney and they both laughed also.
I was advised to ignore the letter and to not accept delivery if any more certified letters show up.
I have always gotten along with neighbors and really don’t need this!”

Yeah…this was never gonna happen.
And it sounds like his neighbor is a bit delusional, doesn’t it?
You can say that again!
He didn’t consider doing this even for a second.
