Who says dead lifts are useless? 30 foot tree fell across my driveway
Poast new message in this thread
Date: April 25th, 2017 12:19 PM Author: appetizing institution And the driveway next door. Windy last night and this morning - bunch of trees and branches in the neighborhood blew down.
45 year old neighbor from upstairs - 6'1" and 240 pounds and his wife are bleating because they need to go to work and are frantically calling taxis (lol olds). My wife also needs to go to work.
After ripping off my posers, I break off the extra branches and fucking hulk the entire tree by myself away from both driveways and drop it into the street so that it's blocking part of the street instead of our driveway.
The "male" neighbor sheepishly gets into his car and drives off while his wife and my wife faint from the sight.
I called the city and since the tree is blocking the sidewalk and the street they will come cut it up and take it away. |
