Radish on 19 and Lexington should be the next bad neighbor victim. Since taking over an empty corner market (which was a good thing) they have proceeded to do nothing for the neighborhood. They wash their greasy mats on our sidewalk and now it stinks and they never clean up their corner. They constantly have the remnants of their own garbage strewn in the gutter OI outside their corner.
It’s a money grab and a shame. Bad neighbor Radish!!

Agreed. And he calls the “bad neighbor” sign “passive aggressive”, when its not at all passive, its good old fashioned aggressive. His “good neighbor” sign, on the other hand, is completely passive aggressive, not to mention (using his words) “a snarky, insipid, whiny symbol of everything that is passive-aggressive about our city and it’s typical inhabitants.”

The “bad neighbor” sign was borne of frustration and really having no other recourse. The “good neighbor” sign is pure passive aggressive snark.

Hey No Fish, that “problem” has been fixed…maybe now Patricia can stop dropping bowling balls( or whatever the hell she’s dropping) on the floor. Schmidt’s are good people, and good neighbors.

We did actually. Filed a report at the police station. They all kind of looked at me funny. “Really? You’re filing a report because someone threw water on you?” Whatever. It was uncool.

"We protested and got the neighborhood together to sign a letter, we successfully put a hold on the beer and wine license." ...and this is supposed to be the sympathetic account of these people? Christ on a crutch.

You don’t get it, do you? These folks’ goal is to benefit from the reduced rent of a mixed-use building, without having to deal with the downsides of living in a mixed-use building.

They want to cheat their way into getting the best of both worlds. And it seems to work, because the city always sides with NIMBYs.

If you don’t like it, move somewhere else. Simple.

A year or so ago some friends and I ate dinner at Schmidt’s. After we were done, we hung out outside for another 15 mins or so, chatting and smoking on the corner. This was around 9pm at night, so not even that late. Apparently we were deemed too loud because the “bad neighbor” lady decided that she should DUMP WATER ON US. What ever happened to a polite, “Hey guys, can you please keep it down?” Sheesh. Yeah, sounds like a real rational human to be negotiating with.

that’s kind of what I thought- if you don’t want to fix this, then I will *FIX* this.

(I honestly have no idea why the power cord keeps cutting itself like that. Weird right?)

Love how this guy whines about a sign the size of a sheet of paper and then refers to hating the whininess.

They need to grow some cajones, walk in there and say if they don’t fix their fan you’re coming back next week to knock it off. the end.

or try to cut a deal in exchange for free food.

or read a book and figure out how to use active vibration dampening.
