Reminds me when a black friend in Texas explained he can't do that because of a real threat of violence, when it's always just been something I've done without considering. Was an eye opener for me years ago.

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 hours ago

Honestly, not just a black thing (but more likely probs). My mom told me about a news story where two teenage white girls got shot at and were killed by a dude because they pulled into his driveway and were lost or some shit.

People are just crazy.

Reminds me of when I was doing driving practice with my mum before I got my license, turned off the main road onto what I thought was just a small residential street and quickly realised it was a shared driveway type thing for maybe 4 houses. Anyway this guy is watching the whole time from his garage workshop thing and halfway through me turning to leave he knocks on the window and basically says I can't go in there and I should turn around in the space between the road and the outer edge of the pavement. I didn't think I had enough room to do that safely and he cast doubts on my fitness to drive. I would have already left by then. Anyway I passed like a month later. I wasn't on his part of that drive and had no plans of ever going there again. If he didn't want people occasionally turning onto that spot he shouldn't have chosen a house by the main road. Actual clown, I'm still annoyed.

But the same dads driving.... Just pull into thus driveway to do the u-turn! Sure! They don't mind! Its a driveway!

property owners behave like aggravated rats

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

this is rat slander, rats are wonderful social creatures who would run out and try to get the driver to wrassle with them so they can become friends

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

This is what I do, but they drive away even quicker no matter how fast I run to them.

I feel for artists. Either their art is being stolen by ai or they're being accused of using it. Or both*

What castle ?

People around me put cones, trash cans, and even sawhorses to prevent people from doing this.

I'll be honest, I have gone two extra driveway spaces to put my tires on someone's driveway that did this when I needed to turn around. Just out of spite.

I get not wanting random strangers pulling in all the time, I used to get that all the time due to a U shaped driveway that Google used to direct people was a turn around spot for a missed turn. But it's not a big deal, and unless I was asleep and my dogs woke me up I wouldn't care.

Now, parking on a random driveway while figuring out where you are is weird to me. And also fuck all the cops who used to use my driveway to try and catch people speeding. You were visible from both sides of the road long before your radar can give you a reading. You did nothing but leech tax money.

I have strong opinions on driveways depending on who you are and why you need it but mostly it's "you do you booboo"

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 hours ago

if you get people using your driveway a lot you should put up a bucket and a sign telling them there's a $2 fee

Wtf that's wild. I couldn't imagine a cop setting up a speed trap in my driveway.

[–] baldingpudenda@lemmy.world 17 points 18 hours ago

Lol, I'd call the cops that someone is parked in my driveway and pointing what looks like a gun at passing cars. Let them figure it out. I'm sure I'd be harrassed and targeted afterwards though.

Dad's, dogs... what's the difference?

Actually dogs hump people too sometimes

Der humpink?

[–] MisterD@lemmy.ca 3 points 16 hours ago

I wouldn't mind it if they knew how to roll and turn their wheels at the same time so to not trash the driveway

[–] Blackout@fedia.io 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I let the weeds and grasses grow between the concrete slabs. It's like dad repellent.

People need to move their boarder in. Not threatening until pounding on door.

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

I don't even find it particularly threatening if they're pounding on the door because I'm liable to ignore them. When they open it and enter the threshold though, that's a problem. That will rouse my 6'6" 330 pound ass into hostility. Thankfully that's only happened twice.
