neighbors

During these tough times of lockdown, people are finding all sorts of ways to entertain themselves. Whether it's dressing up in periodic costumes or reenacting iconic movie scenes, people are certainly getting creative. One guy; a former Royal Marine from Weymouth, England, decided to share the joy and make his neighbors laugh by dressing up in crazy costumes whenever he walks his dog. His fellow former Royal Marine Jack P. documented the hilarious dressing up choices each day and posted them on Twitter. They might be totally crazy but we're sure they brightened up the day of everyone who saw him! 

Your neighbors can make or break your living harmony. If you have bad ones, your life can be hell but if you have funny, weird, or quirky neighbors, life is that little bit more interesting. These people prove that their neighbors make things just a little bit more interesting around the neighborhood. 

Unless you live on a desert island, you're likely to have neighbors. Hopefully, you get along with them and are even good friends, or at the very least, they keep themselves to themselves and don't bother you. But sometimes you can be in the unfortunate position to have nightmare neighbors and they can make your life a living hell. One Canadian guy had one of those types of neighbors and had to go to extreme lengths to teach them a lesson. Here's how his great tale of revenge went down. 

Casey Drake, a Florida mom has found a way to spread smiles and positivity amongst her community by creating cartoon masterpieces on her sidewalk using chalk. Her creations show the well-known Disney, Pixar, and other iconic characters safely practicing and coping with social distancing. "Laughter is the best medicine, and we can all use a little bit of humor right now I think," she said in an interview with WKMG. Her messages touch on things we've all felt and can relate to during the pandemic; from Dorothy from The Wizzard of Oz's classic line of "there's no place like home", to Robin getting a little too close to Batman. Check out her gorgeous creations below!

The quick spread of coronavirus has meant that an increasing number of people are having to self-isolate to keep themselves and others safe. Unfortunately, many of these people — especially the elderly — live by themselves and the loneliness can be overwhelming, particularly for the most vulnerable. Becky Wass, a freelance copywriter from Falmouth, Cornwall, decided to do something about it and designed a postcard for people to post to their elderly neighbors or anyone they know who feels lonely or isolated during the pandemic. Her Facebook post, together with her husband's tweet went viral and people can't get enough of the heartwarming gesture. Here are some of the responses from people who used and benefited from Becky's brilliant idea and it shows how good humanity can be when they come together in the face of a crisis. 

And no, we're not kidding. When a Twitter user, @JJFromTheBronx, first received a notification to join the social network @Nextdoor (a platform for each neighborhood to alert one another about crimes and such) he thought, "great idea!" In no way was he excepting to receive this bizarre letter from one of his neighbors: 

Every witness your neighbor doing something really annoying. Something that just really bothered you? Ever think of just leaving a note for them to see....  Well, these people did!
