Weird neighbors...

She had a small bush

Literally the only thing I took from this post. I need help.

We had a family that lived about five hues up from us when I was younger. This family was like the Adams family in some ways in that they were just odd as hell. I went to school with the oldest daughter and she was the most normal of the bunch and she was weird herself. The parents were total flakes. We lived on a very small street where you could play out in and not worry much about traffic. Only people that drove on the street were the ten or so families that live there.

The mom was in her 50's and the dad was a bit older, I would say maybe 10 years older than the mom. They had 5 kids. the one older sister and 4 much younger boys. My best friend growing up lived right next door to them and we would go to his house and throw the football around in front of his house on the street. One day a couple of the young boys were out in the yard and they were playing. Then one of them, on purpose threw a Frisbee up on their own roof. They started laughing and went in the house. A few minutes later they came out with their dad and they pointed at the Frisbee on the roof. The dad went and got a ladder that only reached about 3/4 of the way up. As he was climbing up the ladder one of the kids ran around to the back of the house as the Dad was trying to reach the Frisbee from the ladder, the kid came back around with a bow and arrow and took aim and shot his dad in butt with an arrow. It wasn't a hunting bow and arrow but a kids one but it was enough to hurt the guy and he fell.

Now, as a young teenager, me and my friends thought this was hilarious. We watched this whole thing from the porch but when my friends dad came out he saw what happened. The guy had fallen from the ladder and was laying on the ground. He called the ambulance and they took him away.

When the man fell he had broken ribs a broken arm and did something to his head because we saw he had some kind of bandage on. Turned out that this guy tried to sue my friends dad for his injuries and medical bills because he said he didn't want or need an ambulance and he didn't think he should pay sine he didn't call the ambulance.

That's the kind of family this crew was.

They were that as well. They used to steal any balls or anything that accidentally went into their yard. They were crazy.

The people who used to live in the townhouse next door had a college-age son who delivered for Pizza Hut. Whenever we ordered, he acted like we were complete strangers when he came to our door. They've since moved away, but he does still "anonymously" bring our pizza from time to time. Wacko.

Wonder what secret ingredient he may have added

I guess I'm lucky, I've always been the weird neighbor...

My dads girlfriend was drinking coffee one morning and had a view of the area where the bush is located when all of a sudden she sees the blur of a little korean lady charging the bush and tackling it and I guess attempting to rip it out of the ground.

Did she have good tackling form? Can she play Safety?

Sorry, but that is one crazy image.

Good, then you can tell us what the mirror means...
