Today, I met my new neighbors. The first thing they did was build a fence. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I met my new neighbors when they backed into my parked car. FML
Today, I found out that my neighbors took it upon themselves to knock down the fence we shared, and putting up a new one. Thus fencing my pool into their yard. When I asked them why, he replied, "We thought you weren't coming back." I was gone for 4 months tending to my sister with breast cancer. FML
Today, some new people moved into the house next door to mine. The previous occupants were very loud and obnoxious day in and day out, so I was looking forward to some sanity. When I went outside, I noticed they'd parked their cars on my lawn. FML
Today, my new neighbors moved in across the street. Also today, they began to park at the end of my driveway. Not used to a car being there, I backed out and promptly hit it. Welcome to the neighborhood. FML
Today, I met my neighbors for the first time, as they helped me carry my dead cat off the road. FML
Today, my new neighbours moved in. I've neither seen nor spoken to them yet; all I know is that they enjoy hammering at the walls for hours on end and repeatedly setting off the fire alarm. All this in the small hours of the morning. I got two hours of sleep. FML
Today, my dad made me deliver a welcoming cake to our new neighbors. While I was making small-talk, I saw him climb over their backyard fence. A minute later, he climbed back over, with a plastic deck-chair in hand. I feel like an accessory to the pettiest theft in history. FML
Today, I finished a fence around my house that I have been working on all week. About an hour after I finished, a water company truck pulled into my driveway. They told me they would have to take down my fence to make repairs on a water pipe. FML
Today, I moved into my new house. I went over to my neighbors' house to introduce myself. As they opened the door I saw a telescope pointed at my house. FML
Today, I paid $5000 for a new fence in my backyard for my dogs. My dog escaped three hours after the contractor finished the fence. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Don't worry, at least it's not possible for them to make you pay for it.

Depending on how long they've been your neighbors, couldn't it just be a coincidence?

I don't see the big problem, I mean a lot of people want a fence around their yard and if the previous owners didn't have one I can see why they would get started on the project as soon as possible as summer is coming soon. If you were the only other person on the street then maybe you could take this the wrong way, but I don't think there's anything more to it than just wanting fence, whether for an animal, privacy, safety or aesthetics.

Talk about building walls instead of breaking them

Fences make good neighbors.

I wouuldn't take it to heart, many people just want privacy, so it was probably unrelated to you.

What if they just wanted a fence? What if they have a dog or something?

Don't worry, op. My wife and I just moved into our new home about a month ago, met our neighbor, and put up a "living fence" (trees) along the sides of our deck. We had planned to get the trees even before we moved in, so to our neighbor it probably felt like you did, but to us, we felt like we'd waited two months to put the "fence" up. We just like our privacy, nothing to do with who our neighbors are at all :) (read: we just want to get naked on our deck without our immediate neighbors seeing!)
