Today, I watched one of my neighbor's trees fall into the electrical lines outside my house. This was after he took a chainsaw to the tree. He refuses to cover the damages. FML

Take legal action or call the police, its damage of personal property and clearly you have the evidence in a form of a giant tree.

It's not that huge a deal. I don't know why people think it's so fantastic, as you're comment is as visible as everyone else's on the first page.

Its pretty stupid that you have to make an amazing pun, or witty comment to not get thumbed down. Whats wrong with you commenting what you feel?

Because saying "Wow that sucks" when you could just press the button that says "I agree, your life sucks" is both wasting comment space and adding nothing of substance to the FML.
And it doesn't always have to be a witty comment or pun. Many people get thumbed up for simply adding an intelligent statement or suggestion for the OP to comment section.
That's just the way it is, and frankly I see no problem with it.

Chainsaws do tend to make trees fall...

38 - I think they meant something OP could show the authorities to prove his case.

Chainsaw cuts into a tree, are a pretty specific way to prove the neighbor did it, especially if he used his own chainsaw.

Chainsaws do not make trees fall, people make trees fall.

This is one of the few times that it actually makes sense to sue someone...

Only because the responsible party is refusing to cover the financial costs of his actions.

37, you took the words right out of my mouth. People are sometimes douches and deserve to be treated as such

First of all, those "electric lines" which I'm wondering if they are phone lines cuz usually its phone lines in a neighborhood and electric lines n usually underground by houses. Also, those aren't OP's property but the company that owns those lines.
SOOO the company can sue OP's neighbor. Glad we could clear this up.

He can refuse all he wants but eventually you're going to get the money from him after you sue

Yes, but obviously OP's neighbour is. So 7 has a point.

That joke was so funny and original. America is not stupid. We just tend to exploit our stupid people better. Don't act like we're the only country with dumb people.

OP can't because those lines aren't OP's property but the company that owns them. So the company can sue.

The electric company pays to have them fixed, but they'll send whoever damaged them a hefty bill

Damaging the power cables would still be the fault of the neighbour.
