Today, my neighbor called the cops on me, all because he heard me speaking Arabic. I was on the phone with my grandmother in Egypt. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had the cops called on me for acting suspiciously. I was using a payphone. FML
Today, I was singing in the shower and my neighbor called the police because they thought I was in trouble. FML
Today, I went to pay my grandma a visit. She called the cops because she didn't recognize me and thought I was a robber. FML
Today, my neighbor called the cops on me, claiming I'd threatened him with a gun. Despite zero proof, they took me to the station and gave me hell. I guess what I've learned today is that you should never offend your crazy neighbor by breaking up with his daughter. FML
Today, I awoke to the sound of my neighbors attacking my car with a baseball bat accusing me of calling the cops on them. I did call the cops on them, after they screamed at me last night, drunkenly, to call the cops for them because they thought they were being robbed. FML
Today, I was harassed repeatedly by other passengers during my flight for speaking Arabic and sounding aggressive. I was in no way being aggressive, and I had to speak Arabic because it's the only language my mother-in-law speaks. Such a fuss was made, I did end up being questioned by TSA. FML
Today, my dad cussed out an individual on the phone because he thought it was a telemarketer. He was my Indian girlfriend's father. FML
Today, my grandmother called me in a fit of panic because her new neighbors are black. So is my fiancé, whom she is supposed to meet tomorrow. FML
Today, some cops came to my house saying that the neighbors thought the party I was having was too loud and obnoxious. It was my grandmother's 86 birthday party. FML
Today, I discovered the terrible things my parents say about my wife while visiting them. They speak in Arabic around us and I've never really been able to understand them. Guess who hasn't only brushed up on his Arabic, but spent the last 6 months teaching his wife… FML

Sounds like your neighbor also wears a tinfoil hat.

Of course, it's from Texas. I'm so sorry that a fellow Texan treated you like that. F*** your neighbors life for being such a d*ckturd.

The neighbour probably made up some things to get the cop to come down, such as "He's making me feel threatened," Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not from Texas, but I doubt any cop would actually respond to "he's speaking a different language"

Am I the only one that wants to know the conversation that op had with the cops and their neighbors?

Man...sorry to hear that. Ignorant neighbors seem to be increasingly common.

The only way I get this is if your neighbor also speaks Arabic and you were describing the plot of 24 or a Tom Clancy book to your grandma. "And then the terrorists take over! Yeah, pretty unbelievable I know. Oh, I'm getting another call have to let you go. I'll tell you the rest when I talk to you again! Bye!" Otherwise... yeah, your neighbor sucks.
