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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I met my new neighbors. The first thing they did was build a fence. FML
Today, I explained to my new neighbors that my kids will continue to use the pool in the backyard as they have for years. The neighbor immediately said my kids are not welcome in her yard and she is building a fence. I don’t know how to explain to my sweet babies they no longer have their pool. FML
Today, I came home from vacation, only to find my neighbours relaxing on my patio, and their kids swimming in my pool. FML
Today, my neighbor yelled at me because her two kids got into my pool. They scaled a two-meter wall to get to my backyard. They used a tree in her yard that hangs over the wall. I guess I could install razor wire on top of the wall. FML
Today, I found out that while I was on vacation my neighbor had let my brother into my apartment. I don't have a brother. FML
Today, I went to visit my parents after 4 years of not seeing them. They'd moved without telling me. FML
Today, I went to check if my neighbours were home to return their dog, having looked after her for a few days. I looked in the window and the place was empty. They'd moved house and stuck us with their dog. FML
Today, I agreed to lend my daughter's inflatable pool to my neighbor for the day. Barely an hour later, I witnessed his son jump off their balcony, missing the pool by inches. He's now in hospital, and my neighbor has sworn to sue me, saying I'm responsible because the pool is mine. 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 came back home to find that my house had been robbed, one week after my neighbors. I was walking around my neighborhood to see if anything was suspicious, and discovered that my neighbors had put up a sign, reading: "Rob the neighbors, THEY don't have a security system." FML

They... essentially stole your pool...? This is just bizarre. In what universe would anyone, from any walk of life, think this is okay?

they pretty much wasted their money putting a fence up in the first place. take it down if it's on your property.

You should send them the electric bill, water bill, and a back payment for the use of the pool. Hell I'd even try, and get them to pay the property tax since they tried to claim it.

OP... I bet the people that think "YDI" are the same assholes that build fences around their neighbor's pools...what morons... don't call the cops until they use the pool... then bust them for trespassing ... Orrrrr... piss in it at night and then wait for them to use it.... Orrrrr.... electrify the fence entrance... Orrrr...take a shit in the sand filtration system and ask them how your shit tastes...Orrrr...have a huge fence decorating party and paint "**** YOU".. among other fun slogans on the side of the fence facing your worthless piece of shit neighbors, so only they can see it!! Maybe they'll get the point with any one of these suggestions, but I'm guessing they're too ******* dumb to get it even if you did every one of them!

Take legal action if talking doesn't work out.
