I believe you are supposed to have sex with his house or burn down his wife or something. 

Start hiding shrubbery.

Start hiding shrubbery.

ARTHUR: O Knights of Ni, we have brought you your shrubbery. May we go now?

HEAD KNIGHT: It is a good shrubbery. I like the laurels particularly,... but there is one small problem.

ARTHUR: What is that?

HEAD KNIGHT: We are now... no longer the Knights Who Say 'Ni'.

KNIGHTS OF NI: Ni! Shh!

HEAD KNIGHT: Shh! We are now the Knights Who Say 'Ecky-ecky-ecky-ecky-pikang-zoop-boing-goodem-zu-owly-zhiv'.

RANDOM: Ni!

HEAD KNIGHT: Therefore, we must give you a test.

ARTHUR: What is this test, O Knights of-- knights who till recently said 'ni'?

HEAD KNIGHT: Firstly, you must find... another shrubbery!

[dramatic chord]

ARTHUR: Not another shrubbery!

RANDOM: Ni!

HEAD KNIGHT: Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get the two-level effect with a little path running down the middle.

KNIGHTS OF NI: A path! A path! A path! Ni! Shh! Knights of Ni! Ni! Ni! Shh! Shh!...

HEAD KNIGHT: Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must cut down the mightiest tree in the forest... with... a herring!

I guess it could have been worse.

I guess it could have been worse.

Did he rake too?

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Did he rake too?

I might forgive them if they cleaned it all up. Cutting the tree down is the easy part.

@gianmarco's neighbour got off easy...

Authorities say NJ homeowner cut down 32 of neighbor's trees. The cost could be huge.

The homeowner's property was already billed as an ideal location to “watch sunrise light up [the] New York City skyline like gold.”

For @wilked

Now that some of the stuff has been cleared out, here's a picture of the area.

That's the front corner of our house. Those 2 trees to the left are both mine. That smaller tree is about 30 feet tall, for scale. The tree that came down was almost identical to the taller one you see and occupied that clear space you see between that tree and the trees you see further behind. If it was still standing, you wouldn't see sky in between that area. It was in the same general line as that taller tree you see, which is only a couple feet inside our property line. In fact, you can see a couple stumps next to it that were on his side that he took down. I'll also mention that it was just outside our only bedroom window on that side, providing some privacy. That's now gone.

Of note, those tall trees further back are on his side and I believe are also marked to come down. The entire landscape of what we bought is going to look very different. I can't tell him what to do with his trees, but this is not a small change to what we bought into.

Updated picture of what the area looks like after 5 years.

Finally grown in and have privacy again and it doesn't look bare. Initially he wanted that open, but after planting and letting it grow in, it's now finally created a "fence" between our homes which is how it was before.

Look at me, I have a nicer yard/house than most of you losers.

What did you end up getting out of the guy?
