I got put in NextDoor jail

Did you bumfuck Otis?

What was she saying, OP?

Some guy was very upset that he had to surrender a beloved 2 year old dog - he had some severe health issue and couldn't care for her, and wanted to be sure she got a good home.

Fat Cunt just harrassed him, left several ignorant posts for him, and when others called her on it, she said she was with a humane society and "we never allow this or recommend it."

(Meanwhile, the Fat Cunt is lying, because shaming an owner just means more people will just abandon their fucking dogs, and most rescues and humane societies know this.)

I called her on it and told her to kindly STFU, and instead of blocking the woman that left 8 messages harrassing someone, they blocked me for a week, I assume for the "STFU."

Apparently looking for a home for an unwanted pet, for whatever reason, on sites like Next Door brings out the human animals who claim they will rescue your pet but then use the pet for horrible reasons like as bait in a dog fight, for example. Never go to a site like Next Door if you have to give up your pet. Go to your local humane society or favorite rescue. Sounds like FC should have been more tactful.

R4 She could have been less unhinged about it and I wouldn't have reacted the way that *I* did.

But she was the usual sad obsessed person who works at rescues and becomes overly invested in every little thing.

I checked Nextdoor the other day on a lark.

Neighbor A posted: "Be careful about the homeless getting on your roofs, they're dangerous!!!" and posted a photo of a man sunbathing on a garage roof.

Neighbor B responded: "That's me. On my own roof."

Nextdoor makes me never want to meet a neighbor.

Speaking of NextDoor jails I'd like to go to

Nextdoor is like white trash facebook.

What shocks me is how illiterate many of the posters are. I saw this one on mine.

[quote]Has any other parents withdrew their children from school(ccisd) due to. no staff at the jr. High school wasnt wearing masks and as i saw on first day of school i didnt see hardly any other kids wearing masks. I know its not mandatory but come on people the numbers are going higher especially in children. My daughter has autoimmune disease and i withdrew her the first day of school die to it seem as if they werent taking n e precautions.

This is a "nicer" area too.

I think I'll not check out Next Door.

I got into a big debate about people who throw their bags of dog shit into other people's garbage cans. They think I should be grateful that the picked the dog shit up. They also don't think it stinks to sit in a garbage can for 2 weeks in the hot sun.

That’s okay. I was banned from all of Reddit for two days because of a power tripping admin on a cliquey subreddit. I didn’t violate any TOS, and had no recourse. It still doesn’t make any sense. Some people get a little bit of power and it goes to their heads.

My favorite NextDoor anecdote was that there was this “artistic couple” seeking like-minded people for an art party. They posted a photo where he’s shirtless and she’s in a camisole; they also posted photos of their erotic art.

Listen, consenting adults and all that, but I thought it was odd to post it on NextDoor. It’s not Craigslist, you know?

R9 : Doesn't take brains to fuck and make babies--most likely the only job that person has ever had.

The lady quoted at r9 isn't stupid, she's asking why people AREN'T wearing masks. Knowing Datalounge everyone here will pretend she's a Trumpster.

Yes R14 but her grammar and overall education is what is questionable. It's shocking that an adult went through school and came out that illiterate hence the post.

It's not shocking at all, especially in Texas. There are plenty of perfectly intelligent people who didn't get a solid education in math or writing because of where they grew up, and it's not always an indication of ignorance or illiteracy.

Dataloungers are by and large very sheltered people but sometimes it really surprises me how provincial some of you are. A few typos and a couple of double negatives and you're screaming "shocking illiteracy!" You need to get out more.

Oh, I was thinking about a pr0n website. Never mind, carry on.

PS. That quote in R9 is truly atrocious.

R16 I grew up in Texas and went to school here and I'm not illiterate like that but I also realize that education in general is not as good as it was when I was in school. She didn't have "a few typos". She cannot write a sentence but non one said she wasn't "smart". I hope for her kids sake she's got common sense. I think most of DL gets out plenty and most of us are well traveled.

Anyway, not sure what your beef us but it sounds more personal. Bye.

See even I made a typo R16 but that's not really what I was talking about.

NextDoor is a cesspool of the worst people on Earth. They seem like "Facebook" types to me, who I also despise. It makes me hate my neighbours even more.

R8 just saw your comment. You beat me to it. That's exactly the vibe.

I've signed up about five times with avatars just so I could tell the idiot posters off. As if the trash the trashy Karenesques are always screaming about on NextDork give a shit. Unless it will land on the Karenesques from door handle.

All I see are posts about homeless intrusion, cats and the need for moving boxes. I never see posts like these:

[quote] I hope for her kids sake she's got common sense.

She’s pro-mask, that shows she’s got more common sense than much of the country.

[quote] Some people get a little bit of power and it goes to their heads

You had BETTER NOT be referring to me!!!!

Nextdoor is down today. The day after the Facebook/Instagram crash. Interesting.

Is it worth signing up for, for entertainment value? I’ve been avoiding it.

The only thing trashier than using Facebook or Nextdoor is bragging about being temporarily suspended from the platforms.

It's good for very hyper-local "news", meaning if something is going on and you're trying to figure out what. Or lost pets, items for sale/giveaway, local crime and safety issues, etc. But there is a high degree of drama and you have to filter past all that or risk getting sucked into it. I never used it until the start of the pandemic and it was useful when things were changing day by day and you needed to find out what stores were open or closed, where to get items in short supply, that kind of thing. During the BLM unrest in May/June 2020 it was a hot mess of people screaming at each other.

I had a crazy person in my neighborhood say that a broken ouija board was found on the sidewalk in front of their house. They were panicking about what to do. 300+ comments.

My all time favorite (I've posted this before):

Neighbor A posted a picture of a man sunbathing on top of a garage. He was freaking out about the homeless, telling people to be careful of vagrants on their property.

Neighbor B responded: "That's me. On my roof"
