WHAT WOULD YOU DO…NOW?
You are at a neighbourhood block party. You are making small talk with your somewhat crotchety and always colourful neighbour about his shrinking kidneys when he says. “Speaking of the new fence you’re building…” You end up in a heated debate over placing the new fence-five centimetres one way or the other. 5 cm!! He finishes by threatening you with a lawsuit and you say something about him not knowing the difference between his hind end and his elbow!
