Am I in the wrong for getting upset with my neighbor who was weed whacking at 9 am on a Saturday? Should I apologize for being rude? I found this was obnoxious and inconsiderate, considering I work very late on weekends.

Am I in the wrong for getting upset with my neighbor who was weed whacking at 9 am on a Saturday? Should I apologize for being rude? I found this was obnoxious and inconsiderate, considering I work very late on weekends.

You expect your neighbor, who may or may not even be aware of your schedule, to do chores at a time that is convenient to you, based on the schedule that he might not even know, rather than at a time that is convenient to him, that is, on a Saturday morning when he’s not at work and before it’s gotten too hot. Moreover, when he failed to comply with this unreasonable expectation that you hadn’t even bothered to inform him of, you were rude to him.

So, let’s see if I understand your position.

Yeah, you’re absolutely in the wrong. If you don’t want to listen to your neighbor working on his yard while you’re trying to sleep, you’re welcome to invest in a good pair of earbuds.

What would happen if the US government told the British government in no uncertain terms all RAF bases with USAF personnel now must follow the Constitution and us law, and if the UK tried to defy this, the US military would directly attack the UK?
