    Yes I feel it is my duty to know the business of everybody in my neighbourhood. That way i'll be a witness to everything that goes on in the hood.

    Nah i'm on joking, I don't care enough about other people's lives to want to know what's going on with them.

    Pighead's not at all nosey but his neighbour most definitely is. Was walking down the street today and he shouted "Good morning Pighead, how are you today?"

    Nosey spanner.

    I live in the middle of nowhere, can't see any of my neighbours and they can't see me, suits everyone!!!

    There used to be a gang of old women on Pighead's street who made it their business to know absolutely everything everybody was getting up to. It got to the stage where if Pighead forgot to change his underpants he'd be getting a note through the door saying "Oi, Pighead, change your pants"

    It was horrible because it made you feel self conscious whenever you were lovemaking. Tuesday evening on our street was generally a busy time for fornication as that was when the old biddies went to bingo.

    I live in a small rural community - everyone is a nosey neighbour except me! I couldnt give a **** about anyone elses life!

    "Ah the rural fabric is breakin down so it is to be sure" :rolleyes:

    Opposite - haven't a clue who my neighbours are, let alone know anything about them. I see the family across the landing from time to time and I'm on "hi" terms with the dad. I called to the girls upstairs once about something so I say "hi" to them if I meet them on the stairs, which is extremely rare.

    I don't like the anonymity of apartment complexes - granted, living in a community full of busybodies who know when you sneeze isn't desirable either. Somewhere in the middle is ideal though, in my opinion. A bit of a sense of community is nice.

    My brother lives in an apartment and one of the ladies in the block is extremley nosy and knows what everyone does. It's actually not a bad thing to have as any sign of trouble in the block and she's onto it in a flash! No danger of anything bad happening on her watch!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,553 ✭✭✭soccymonster


    Im not nosy but i used to watch my hot neighbour when he played soccer in his back garden.

    Wait... Is stalking and being nosy the same thing? :confused:

    I know little about Nuclear Overhauser Effect Spectroscopy and neither do my neighbours.

    Leave us alone.

    Don't have a clue who my neighbours are.

    Never hear a sound to my left. House on the right is empty.

    So, no, not a nosey neighbour!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,931 ✭✭✭Prof.Badass


    Spelling of the title.

    Oh noes!

    :D
