What's going on guys? It's your boy scrub here.
Back again with another video. Hope you guys are all having an
absolutely fantastic day. I know I am.
If you are, be sure to press thelike button.
Otherwise, no joke, no scam. You'll be visited tomorrow night
by 7 aliens and they will all benamed Jeff and they will say
which one is Jeff and if you answer wrong then you will be

(00:20):
absolutely disintegrated. But if they're all named Jeff,
you won't be able to guess whichJeff they're asking you to
identify as Jeff. That was a mouthful.
Press the like button is what I'm trying to say anyways, guys
today we have a little bit of a subscriber story all right,
somebody sent me this story on Instagram and I was like Gee
willikers mate, this is some pretty wild stuff.
Gee willikers. Oh no.

(00:41):
It is a story about a crazy neighbor.
And when this person sent it to me, I asked them to send me
proof and they did However, theyasked me to, you know, not leak
their address, but there was a news article that said it was
real. So I'm a trust them and if I am
getting bamboozled, who cares dude, it's going to be a good
story. That's what really matters.
So basically this kid lives on astreet where most of their
neighbors are old people. The neighborhood is a little bit

(01:03):
older. So most of the people in the
neighborhood are older. Their kids have gone off to
college, gotten married, had grandkids, all that stuff.
There's not really a ton of people left in the neighborhood
that are younger or around his age.
And I don't know what it is about old people living in
neighborhoods, but for some reason I feel like their
problems just become very weird.Like, you know, when you have
kids in a family, your problem is like, Oh no, our car has a

(01:25):
fuel line leak. We need to get that fixed.
But old people, when they're retired all day and just have
have nothing to do but sit around and find problems, have
beef with basically everybody over the dumbest things.
And I guess some of his neighbors that were down the
street, you know, living next toeach other, like it wasn't his
neighbors in terms of living next to him, but it was on the
street. There were two houses that had a

(01:47):
giant beef with each other. And they started getting the
entire neighborhood involved. All right.
So I guess each of the people that owned these houses was a
couple of old people, an old woman and an old man.
And you know, it's just like that sometimes in these
neighborhoods. It's and all of this beef, this
immense amount of beef up in thekitchen.
Wendy's where the beef status started over a shed.
I guess one of the old folks needed a place to store their

(02:09):
tools or whatever and they builta shed.
However, the other neighbors didnot like the placement of the
shed because for whatever reason, it blocked a view from
their hot tub, which I don't really know how a shed can block
a view from your hot tub, but there's already a fence or
something in the way. Maybe it took like a corner out
of their view. But from what the kids EME is
basically like the hot tub didn't really block the view,
but the neighbors we're furious.And so they go over to the old

(02:32):
folks and they're basically like, listen, we're both old
here, all right? We both survived the Great
Depression and after surviving the Great Depression, I can
honestly say the most depressingthing I've seen is your stupid
ugly shed that blocks my beautiful view that I normally
have. All right, listen, my view used
to be fantastic and now I have to look at the roof of your
shed. And honestly, I I've pondered

(02:52):
just burning it down before and the people are like, well, look,
you know the sheds on our property.
I'm not going to move my shed because you say that it blocks
your view. I'm sorry, but the shed's on my
property. I don't think it blocks your
view, so I'm not going to move it.
And I guess this made the couplethat wanted the shed to be moved
very, very angry because within the next 24 hours, there were
basically posters all over the neighborhood of them calling,

(03:15):
you know, the family that wouldn't remove the shed liars
and how they're disgusting neighbors and UN neighborly.
And apparently the Flyers were from Anonymous, which is is
pretty, pretty obvious to you. Like, if nobody's got beef with
your neighbor, the second you have beef with them, you start
putting up posts. They're saying that they're
aliens that are going to abduct somebody.
Like, come on. It's pretty obvious who the one
who put up the notes is. OK, That's like me getting in a

(03:37):
fight, right? I literally fight Barack Obama.
And then Barack Obama tweets outlike, I don't know where this
came from, but did you guys knowthat Scrubs doesn't tie his
shoes? Like, come on.
OK, you don't know where that came from or who told you this?
It's obviously because we were beefing.
I don't know Obama's last name, though, so I guess I couldn't
fight him. Everybody knows that in order to
fight somebody, you have to knowtheir last name.

(03:58):
It's kind of the rules. So these old people people are
mega beefing over a shed. Except old people don't fight
like normal people. You see the flyer gets posted
saying that this family is a liar and they're disgusting and
being UN neighborly by refusing to remove their view right or
their shed. And so the other family makes a
flyer basically saying that thisguy is selfish and just wants
them to remove their shed which is crucial for them to store

(04:20):
their tools. Like first of all, nobody cares.
Something tells me every other person who lives in the
neighborhood honestly does not care at all about the state of
the shed going on. And if it's blocking somebody's
view, like literally nobody cares.
But whatever. They start posting passive
aggressive Flyers back and forth, totally anonymous by the
way. Nobody knows where these Flyers
are coming from because you know, it's not obvious that the

(04:40):
only people who care at all about the shed situation are the
people involved. Like imagine hearing about the
shed situation, not being one ofthe people with the shed and
being like, that's it. I'm writing a passive aggressive
letter talking about how you're a poop head.
Like, I'm sorry, if you're that bored all the time where you're
really going to be making letters passive aggressively
about the state of a shed, then you need to find something new

(05:02):
to do. That's how you know it had to be
the old people because nobody else has that much free time on
their hands. Like in between making videos.
I'm not sitting here. My God, Can you believe that
Daryl put a shed in a place thatblocked Michael's view?
We need to burn his house down. So the old people are being all
passive aggressive to each otherthe way that it happens every
now and then. And I guess at one point, one of
the old people looked at the other group of old people and

(05:24):
say, well, then I guess it wouldjust be a shame if for some
reason your shed burnt down, which is a very weird threat,
like, especially if you're goingto burn it down.
OK, just a general rule of thumbhere.
I'm not a master criminal. I have not spent many years in
prison, maybe just a couple. But one thing that I can tell
you is generally, you don't say what you're going to do that's
illegal before you do it. You just do it and hope they

(05:46):
can't figure it out. Like, imagine if you saw
somebody with a nice car and youwent, huh, it'd be a shame if
your car got stolen and then youstole the car.
It'd be pretty obvious who stolethe car.
Like, huh, wouldn't it be a shame if your property that
we've been fighting over burnt to the ground?
Like, oh, I don't know, let's say it magically burns down.
I wonder who the cops are going to think did it first.

(06:07):
So miraculously after the fight where they're like, I'm a burn
down your shed. Guess what happens that night?
A mysterious ghost that refuses to be named and will not come
forward to admit to its crimes lights the shed on fire.
Except the only problem is it's a pretty big shed.
And I don't know if you've ever lit in anything pretty sizable
on fire. Like if you ever made a bonfire,

(06:28):
you know, there's something to be said for a lot of wood tends
to burn a lot, a lot faster and bigger than you intend.
OK, so the ghost that lit this on fire, the ghost that lit the
shed on fire, I don't think it ever really lit in anything
large on fire before because when the shed burst into flames
and it gets windy, fire and trunks of extremely hot embers

(06:49):
tend to get carried to things around the fire.
And the shed happened to be verynear the house, right?
So the old folks living with theshed wake up to their house in
engulfed in flames like they hadtried to light the shed on fire
and the shed fire had moved to the house, which is a how
fireworks fire spreads. Dude, if you've played
Minecraft, you know that. And obviously these people were

(07:11):
born during the Great Depression, so they've never
played Minecraft. But maybe everybody would have
been a little less depressed if they would have been playing
Minecraft instead, you know whatI mean?
But no, it just went out and started trying to burn down
sheds with no experience on how fire spread works.
OK. And it's a pretty quiet street.
So when the fire department is roaring sirens on down your
street at like 2:00 in the morning, you tend to wake up and

(07:32):
be like, huh, I wonder what's going on?
What's the situation down the street?
So the kid gets out of bed and him and his parents go down to
make sure that everybody's OK because people are neighborly in
other states. That doesn't really happen in
Las Vegas. You never really talked to your
neighbors at all except you're unless you're getting yelled at
by Karen, you know, like that's that's the only experience I've
really had talking to my neighbors a ton is my
wackadoodle neighbor who won't leave me alone.

(07:53):
But I guess some people like want to check on their neighbors
and make sure nobody got burned alive in a fire, which, hey,
kudos to you. I guess that would be the the
right thing to do. Like the nice thing to do is to
make sure that nobody got burnedalive in a fire.
And the fire department is like,how did this fire start?
Right. And basically the other
neighbors who lit the shed on fire come out and they're acting
all confused. They're like, Oh my gosh, who,

(08:14):
who did this? Oh, how did, how did your shed
catch fire? Oh, what, what your shed was on
fire? Oh my goodness, I had no idea.
And so the people who own the house are like, really?
Because earlier today, didn't you make an ominous threat that
said something along the line signs of, oh, ha, ha, wouldn't
it be a shame if your shed burned down?

(08:34):
And the fire department's like, hold up, hold up.
You're telling me that you came over here and threatened to burn
his shed down? And then miraculously, the shed
and the house burned down and the old people are like, well,
just because I said I was going to burn his shed down doesn't
mean I actually burned the shed down.
Like, why would I do that? It must have been somebody else
that lit the shed on fire. And the fire department is like,
OK, listen, you're telling me that some other neighbor in this

(08:57):
area heard you, threatened to burn down his shed and then
went, huh, it's the perfect chance to burn down their house
and get away with it. And the old people are like,
yes, basically 100%. Just because I threatened to
burn down the shed before the shed burned down doesn't mean
that I burned it down. Which I mean, OK, OK, I believe
that about 0% coincidences happened.

(09:17):
Sure. But four hours ago you were
like, I'm going to burn down your shed, you stupid hoe.
And now it's burned down and youexpect people not to believe
that it's you. So obviously the police are
investigating this entire situation as arson because it's
about a 99% chance that this neighbor tried to burn down the
other person's shed and it just got out of control.
I don't think they purposely letthe house on fire, but I think

(09:38):
they tried to burn down the shedand that's what happens.
However, I will say this entire situation has made me way more
grateful for Karen. I know what you're thinking,
Ryan. How can you be grateful for your
neighbor that tries to get you kicked out, evicted every week?
Because I can gladly say that Karen is tried to burn down my
house, which I think is an absolute win.
OK. Like imagine me walking outside
and Karen sitting there with a match furiously trying to light

(10:00):
the corner of my house on fire. Like no thank you.
Moral The story is I guess shedsare a very big deal to old
people. Like I didn't realize that sheds
were such a life or death situation for people in in other
states. But I guess you know it's worth
a lifetime imprisonment for arson when people are in a house
to get rid of the shed. Like you block my view.
I block your life. Like, I don't really know what

(10:21):
you were doing, dude. It's just not worth the
situation you're putting yourself in to burn down
somebody's shed. But yeah, apparently some
neighbors out there take shed placement very seriously and
will literally burn down your house if you place it in the
wrong place. So be on the lookout if you've
got a shed going in your backyard anytime soon.
That's really the story the subscriber sent me.
I just knew I had to share it because I know you guys love

(10:42):
crazy neighbor stories, so hopefully you enjoyed.
If you didn't, that's OK too. If you did really enjoy though,
you guys should go get some G fuel using code scrubby.
It should be 30% which is quite the bargain.
Real talk though, today's notification shout out.
The absolute unit that will be getting the notification shout
out is Finn Peragus. Big shout out to you for having
on notifications dude. I really do appreciate it if you

(11:04):
don't notification shout out. Send a screenshot of your
notifications on to my Instagramat scrubby.
And remember to not get anyone pregnant and if you do, make
sure they won't burn down the house.
I'm out. Peace.
