Today, my elderly neighbor used his snowblower to send all of the fallen leaves in his yard into mine, which I'd raked earlier that morning. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after spending three hours raking leaves, I went to the store to get some supplies. I came back to find my neighbor had decided to blow his leaves all over my yard. FML
Today, I spent over an hour shovelling the walkway and driveway, snow blowing in my face and down my coat. When I was finally finished, a guy started going through the neighborhood plowing everyone's driveways for them. FML
Today, my parents left early in the morning to run some errands, and I thought it would be nice to shovel our rather large driveway for them while they were out. An hour later, they returned from the store with a snow blower. FML
Today, it was very windy and snowy and the neighborhood's garbage cans were blowing everywhere. I had already brought mine in and I saw my neighbor's being blown away. Thinking I'd be nice, I went out to pick it up. Just before I could however, the wind smashed it into me and I fell on the ice. FML
Today, my neighbor finally cut the grass on his front lawn. At 2 in the morning. FML
Today, as I always do when we get a lot of snow, I shovelled the snow off my elderly neighbor’s driveway. I slipped and fell into a snowbank, breaking my collarbone, and she had to call 911 to help me out because I couldn't snow angel my way up. FML
Today, I'm at my grandparents' house to help clear snow. I was making a path to the driveway by pushing the snow out of the way. I saw a big pile and went to kick it really hard. Alas, it was a step. FML
Today, it snowed. Rather than enjoy the view, my roommate had to complain every five minutes about the mentally challenged neighbor shovelling snow all day long. As long as he doesn't shovel it into my yard, I really don't care what he does to pass the time in lockdown. FML
Today, my neighbor waved at me while he mowing his lawn. Wanting to be friendly, I waved back. In doing so I tripped on the curb, fell onto my own trash can, and rolled halfway into the street. He didn’t stop mowing. FML
Today, I learned that my neighbor of 9 years has a kid. I learned this after I knocked down his snowman. FML

Leaf wars!

This a tough one. You state he is your elderly neighbor, so that procludes you from going next door, dragging him into your yard and cramming the leaves back up his ass. So my suggestion is to rake all the leaves up, bag them and get rid of them, then go inside and bake a dozen or so chocolate chip cookies using chocolate Ex-Lax in place of the chips. Deliver them to your neighbor, sweetly saying, "Pleae try not to blow all your leaves into my yard again and to show there are no hard feelings, here are some fresh baked cookies." Then go home, crack a beer and sit back smiling to yourslef knowing that revenge is sweet and in this case pretty damm messy!

Dude he's being a dick so you should show him you have a bigger one by getting a leaf blower and blowing them back to his yard and if he comes complaining to you you just say you started it and slam the door

That's why you should have kids. Free labor.

Did u think of raking your elderly neighbors leaves up as well? A good deed and would have saved you the extra work!

I see this ending in a Mexican stand-off. There is no other resolution.

Rake them into a pile in his yard. Burn them and turn him in for leaf burning!
