Woman in her house with the caption: Am I the only one that gives my neighbors names they don't know they have?? like "red truck dude" "cat killers" "sweet grandma with the rose bush" and "the slut across the street"

Yep. We call some of our neighbors:

  • Boy-next-door (he’s actually a dude in his 50s)
  • Stilgar (because he kinda resembles Javier Bardem’s Stilgar)
  • Boom boom house (because they have those obnoxious subwoofers in their car and you can hear them coming from a mile away)
  • Barn house (because the paint color of their house makes it look like a barn)
  • Young couple (they look like our age and have no kids, although I think we’re pretty much older than them)
  • Karen (no explanation needed. We all have the neighborhood Karen. Thankfully she’s several streets away and we only feel her presence in the neighborhood group chat)

    My neighbor is named Karen. She's absolutely a Karen, but she's my Karen.

    She's actually pretty nice and takes care of her neighbors, but she is all up in the neighborhood's business sometimes.
