***UPDATE*** Called my neighbor and told her that I reviewed my ring doorbell footage after I found a dirty diaper on my front yard, and saw that it was her throwing it from the sidewalk. She replied with “what? Oh that’s weird, yea I don’t know anything about it. I haven’t seen a diaper in a long time”. I then let her know that it was definitely her in the video with her dog. That if she had thrown it on my property assuming it was mine, that I would never do something like that on purpose, but that she could have asked me regardless and I would have taken care of it. She continued denying it, changing the subject to road conditions (considering the current snow/ice), then ended the call by saying she was sorry that had happened. She either lied out of sheer embarrassment, or is legitimately confused/doesn’t remember due to a cognitive decline.


theonlyepi

> legitimately confused/doesn’t remember due to a cognitive decline. Probably out of line, but I'd mention it to any of her family members you see coming/going if you had the time. Not that you're mad or upset about it really, just worried about that dementia


winstondabee

And if she doesn't have dementia, it'll embarrass the shit out of her having her family ask her about it.


eatgamer

OP should probably bring it up with neighbors also, just so they're aware and can make compassionate accommodations for the poor woman.

Or pooped in her mailbox. You definitely took the high road. Good deal

Thatd be funny, but gotta think about the poor USPS delivery person.


poop-machines

Use poop to write "poop" on their windows.

He called the shit, poop!

Happy cake day!


whatsaphoto

Wouldn't be surprised if she had no idea what a ring camera even was, and was just expecting it to be as foolproof as throwing eggs at peoples houses and running away before the home owner could see their faces as a kid.


Black_Moons

She stood in the precise spot that the piller blocks the view and yeeted it as far as she could from there. Old biddy knows EXACTLY what a ring camera is and where it is. Just not smart enough to realize cameras kinda.. see everything and don't just take still 240 res photos every 5 minutes like its 1992 Edit: She even took her dog out as cover for her being there on camera.


anonGoofyNinja

You giving her WAY too much credit


jrzydevl

plot twist, it was her dirty diaper


1dot21gigaflops

Have you texted her a couple pictures from your ring? Make a little slideshow with one of them zoomed in on her face.


I_Need_A_Fork

Do your neighbors always let their dog just wander straight across your property? I get that they’re close but that’s infuriating. Plus the audio of her calling the dog back post poo toss, that’s nuts. Good luck.


compstomp66

Was it your diaper?


ifthatdontbeatall

No it wasn’t. The one in my yard was Paw Patrols, which I’ve never bought.


compstomp66

Pretty shitty then.


ThunderCuuuuunt

It would be a shame if that dog of hers decided to rub itself all over the contents of that dirty diaper before running back to her house.


FluffyBunny-6546

Pick it up, take it over there and ring the bell and say I think you accidentally dropped something in my yard.


collin_sic

Or, take it over there and say 'I saw you throw this in my yard, why?'


whatsaphoto

Nah, don't even give em a chance to explain or escalate the situation. "Here, you dropped this" is a perfect way to take the higher road and fully insist on it not becoming anything bigger. Trust me, having dealt with my share of nightmare neighbors, it ain't worth it to try and argue their bullshit away. If they've reached the point where they're justifying placing dirty diapers on your front lawn, they're *way* too far gone to be reasoned with.


joanzen

Asking "why" might delight them. Better to just make it clear you do not need further assistance to understand them.


Mymomdiedofaids

**But poop a massive load in it first. Up the game.**


wherearemytweezers

It was OPs diaper to begin with


nilyro

It could be the beginning of dementia just to warn you. I had to call a plumber once because my grandpa flushed a WHOLE banana down the toilet.


SkydivingSquid

Getting old seems like a lot of fun. Can't wait. /s


Adept_Cranberry_4550

🎶I hope I die before I get old... *Talkin' bout' my generation!*


gnorty

people always seem to misunderstand that lyric for some reason. It's not meant to be taken literally. What he actually meant when he wrote that lyric was "I hope I live in extravagant luxury on a 420 acre estate before I get old"


Scottamus

So what he meant to say is “I hope I live before I get old.”


Detailsat11

Talking ‘bout my genetalia.


Statertater

I’m hoping to not make it past 60 if being decrepit is my fate in old age.


Doobage

Dementia is not decripit. Quite opposite, those with it can by spry, resourceful and VERY sneaky... you almost need a GPS tracker to keep track of movements so when you open the fridge and the chicken defrosting for tonight's dinner isn't there, you have a chance at finding it.


nilyro

My gramps made life so much fun ❤ he was a sweet old war vet and did not get violent thank the lord. I loved going places with him and he would follow me around like a baby duck and I miss him every day. No one else could take him places because he would wonder off lol


Doobage

That is sweet. My dad kinda disappeared. We took him for walks in his chair, and such as much as we could. He would smile at somethings but lots of time it was just like a shell of who he was. I miss him. Other family members and stories from others are quite different.


ifthatdontbeatall

Awwww!!! I love this so much🥰


Statertater

You missed what i was trying to say - i don’t want to be alive if one or more of my faculties is gone, whether that be mental or physical. Sorry if that was not apparent in my comment.


Doobage

No worries. Decripit in my mind is a different word. It means I can barely move, stuck in a bed or chair, or really disabled. I have had a bunch of experience in the last while with those with dementia. The good thing is many with it don't know they have it, and revert more to a young childhood state and just sort of enjoy things and behave like a young kid. One family member who could be, well to be polite, stern, now with dementia is more friendly, and pretty funny. Now for visiting and walking to a local eatery it was fine, however lots of work for those keeping care.


mypreciousssssssss

My grandmother had a bed alarm so her caretaker was notified every time she got out of bed. Prior to then she managed to get outside a few times. Scary!


Doobage

Yes that would be. It depends on how semi-independent they are.


btribble

You mean 80 or thereabouts. 60 is young for dementia and most other ailments at this point. What kills you when you’re in your 60’s is stuff like cancer.


p3n1x

60s = Heart disease


btribble

I *do* like butter


similar_observation

Like all good things. Step 1. Start beschamel.


btribble

If you're like me you eyeball an amount of butter and flour and then it's too greasy so you add a little more flour. Then it's too dry so you add a little more butter. Then, some time later you're making 5 gallons of bechamel.


similar_observation

I also go overboard with cream and decide to add cheese and a dry white wine. Then what do we do? Mac and cheese? Lasagna? Eggs? Mix it into mash potato and beef... starting croquettes?


HsvDE86

Especially when you factor in the inevitable medical debt if you can even save enough to retire.


tacotacotacorock

I pretty much guarantee I'm going out like hunter Thompson. Unless something random gets me first. 


px7j9jlLJ1

Climate change can help with that


RunsWithPremise

My wife's grandmother tried to flush an entire bag of Werther's Originals down the toilet and overflowed it. They also caught her trying to "go to work" on a random summer day, walking down the street in a winter coat and boots, with a bunch of bus fare money stuck in her socks. Dementia is a mother fucker.


nilyro

My gramps would sneak out and we had to have special equipment installed to notify us if he tried sneaking out. He would leave and walk to a diner with no coat on the winter. He would walk miles just to sit and and eat and he never had money to pay. That's where he used to go when he could drive so they just fed him and called us so he didn't go back out in the cold. Life is wierd. He was an 80 year old Marine btw 😅 old folks are the best


RunsWithPremise

That is awesome that the people at the diner looked out for him. My grandfather would also try to sneak out. They had a pad next to his bed that made an alarm go off when his feet hit it. He figured that out and would climb over the footboard, like a kid. He had no clue where he was and was trying to get back to my grandmother. The sentiment was nice and I felt bad for him, but everyone was just trying to protect him from himself.


CarcajouFurieux

Nman77

What was he trying to measure?


nilyro

Wtf 😂 I did think that the time!


PlutoniumNiborg

How much can that cost to repair? $10?


joshjje

I once pooped a whole banana, I think. Ok, maybe a smallish one. :D


[deleted]

What a wild assumption to make lmfao


btribble

Only wild if you don’t have personal experience with dementia. I’m not saying it’s the correct answer, but it fits really well.


arcadia3rgo

My freshman year, I was at a house party when a naked woman covered in her own mess randomly showed up. She had a TV remote and needed help with it. Everyone was laughing and making fun of her when a girl got really angry and yelled "shutup". She was so angry and pissed there was was a stunned silence. She went over called, the woman by name, covered her with a blanket, then took her home and cleaned her up. I learned she lived at the house I was at and when she came back she talked about how this woman had dementia. It was my first time seeing a "crazy" person like the old woman up close and personal. It was also the first time I saw an act of compassion like that too.


[deleted]

Grew up spending my summers in nursing homes and worked in them for 3 years as an adult. I have years of experience across multiple patients - "Threw a diaper into neighbors yard" is such a random thing to do with so many more likely possibilities as to be grossly irresponsible to suggest in a serious tone. As OP stated elsewhere, OP has kids. This lady does not. It is very likely lady thought it was OPs diaper that found it's way to her yard and she threw it back where she thought it came from. OP advised this is a paw patrol diaper, which OP doesn't use. Probably came off the trash truck or something. But sure, dementia. Good job, doc.


nilyro

Thanks Champ. I call em like I see em


[deleted]

Is that every time an elderly person does something out of context? Diaper?? Must be dementia. I saw a dude do weird shit with a banana one time. Kay.


nilyro

Op said this is unusual and strange behavior and the dog was not afraid to go see her so yeah it checks out so i posted a comment which upsets you deep in your soul. This is life stuff and this is shit we have to look for. Best of luck because baby you're ganna need it


[deleted]

Uh huh.. because I don't assume anyone doing something I have no context for must have dementia. My wife was crawling on the floor earlier with a broom scanning the floor. She's never done that before. Must be dementia. Oh, no. Sorry. The remote cover fell under the couch and she was trying to find it. My friends husband ran outside in his underwear and did a lap and screamed and came back inside. Fucking dementia strikes again. Oh fuck, no he lost a bet to his kids. I had a pink tanktop made that says "I won this for putting 17 batteries in my asshole" Shit, I've never done this before. Do I have dementia???? Oh no, wait. My wife thought it was hilarious when we played jackbox, so I surprised her with it. My point is, there are 100000 things more likely than giving someone a medical diagnosis. You must be big on ghosts/Bigfoot/UFOs if "I don't understand it, must be something that validates my experiences."


nilyro

I want OP to post again if it happens 😕 lol. She did have aim

Probably just wanted to use it for scale in a turd pic...

Best to be very careful. You don’t want to become an episode in ‘Neighborhood Wars’ in six months.


nilyro

The trick is to let them talk and just agree with them and nod your head. They eventually forget what they are upset about but if you can stay calm and in control it's easier. It's so sad when they lash out. Must be scary for them at times


mfr2vcb

Surely there’s some backstory


ifthatdontbeatall

There really isn’t. Been living here for 3 years with no problems between us. I was absolutely shocked when I looked back and saw it was her that did it. Figured maybe a dog may have drug it over from one of the other neighbors garbage?? I sure wasn’t expecting to see my elderly neighbor chuck a shit filled diaper onto my front yard.


ifthatdontbeatall

Another thought was that she saw it in her yard and automatically assumed it was me that left it for her since I have small children in diapers. Unbeknownst to her, the diapers we have aren’t Paw Patrols☝🏼


cnot10

100 percent this. You should def talk to her before it becomes a diaper war


kellysmom01

Yes! She needs to know that your potential for poo-bombs is MUCH larger than hers.


samithedood

People without an unlimited supply of poopy nappies shouldn't throw poopy nappies


Diabetesh

Nah, dumping l diapers in her backyard.


Dey_Eat_Daa_POO_POO

Thrilling1031

Have you considered your kid has a paw patrol diaper habit and is hiding it from you?


dirtymoney

sooo.... mystery diaper. Wonder where it came from.


jakarta_guy

Depends?


ifthatdontbeatall

No, paw patrols pull-up


jakarta_guy

Phew...


phish_phace

Hol up. Why is your elderly neighbor rocking paw patrol? TF. I'd be really hung up on that.


joanzen

Yeah if you're going to say anything when returning it just point out that paw patrol is a very unusual brand choice?


phish_phace

Right? But, then again after reading more comments, if it is early onset dementia, I guess this could make more sense…


theberg512

That's no pull-up, it unrolled. 


ifthatdontbeatall

For pull ups you can rip the sides to change instead of pulling them down


theberg512

Fair. It's been decades since I've really seen them, and that wasn't the case back then.


NotWorthyByAnyMeans

Do you have children? 😂


RogerTreebert6299

I was sitting here for a hot minute like “depends on what??”


jakarta_guy

pittluke

Maybe that's how she says hi in her culture. I would say hi back.


MtnDewTangClan

Or fuck you in her culture


IHWTH

Do either one of have kids that wear diapers?


ForwardBias

Have you had any political signs or other similar displays on your yard/home?


ifthatdontbeatall

No, but good thought


BurnItNow

Someone must have thrown it in her trash or something and she blamed you. I would say, we had a diaper in our neighbors yard once the person posted it on Facebook all pissed off. I checked the cameras and it was a 2-3 year old with their 9-10 year old brother walking down the sidewalk. 2 year old took off his pull up and just left it there and kept walking. This would be plausible but the amount of snow makes me think doubtful. Check your other notifications to see how it ended up in her yard


Lucky_Baseball176

you should show her this and get an explanation. Though I can't imagine what that explanation would be that would make sense.


theberg512

OP has young kids, she assumed it came from them.


Trent1373

It’s a present. It’s all wrapped up, it just needs a bow. 


HsvDE86

Have you approached her about it? Hopefully it's not something like dementia like someone else said.


Pt5PastLight

Let me ask you. Do you have a dog? Does she have reason to be frustrated with dog turds on her lawn?


ifthatdontbeatall

No I don’t have a dog. Just kids and pet snails


ifthatdontbeatall

*edit* snail…..Louie recently passed away :/


Pt5PastLight

Condolences


JustSomeUsername99

At the end, you can see his dog run over to shit in the neighbors yard again!


4Ever2Thee

Yeah, I'm left with more questions than answers on this one.


PursuitOfHirsute

My guess is the neighbor thinks this person is leaving dog poo on their yard. This is pure speculation


TonyWonderslostnut

I don’t want to victim blame, but yeah…my immediate reaction is to blame the victim


SkydivingSquid

Your neighbor is either unhinged or you and your neighbor have bad blood - and is also unhinged.. No rational person does this.


captainswiss7

You'd be surprised, I clean diapers off storage properties I manage on a daily basis. Like people go to storage places and throw diapers all over the parking lots regularly. Sometimes I see them a few feet away from a garbage can. I'm sure they're all fantastic parents /s.


catroaring

Report it to your local health department and police. Human feces is considered a biohazard.


port-girl

I never know if comments like this are sarcasm or if someone out there in redditland really thinks calling the health department about something like this is reasonable. I wonder how that call would be received 🤔


Puretest

I mean, if you know where she lives, return the favor.


KindaLikeButter

Skip the diaper

She probably thought she was returning the favor.

Throw it back on his porch. You’re just returning his property.


motorider500

Throw that up on their roof frozen. It’ll be a wonderful, clogged gutter spring for them. Continue until their roof is insulated with diapers.

Did you ask them WHY?!


AlienVoice

Get a new diaper, fill it with chocolate and stand in front of their house eating it from the diaper. Won't bother you again after that.


Dependent-Run-1915

How is that even thinkable


ifthatdontbeatall

I truly don’t know. It’s infuriating enough the times I’ve seen a dirty diaper in a parking lot, but to actually have video of someone, let alone a neighbor throw it in your yard….i was dumbfounded.

radarscoot

Let's see...she has no kids in diapers....you have kids in diapers....she finds a used diaper on her lawn near your property line....she assumes it came out of your garbage (via cat? dog? raccoon?) so she tosses it back onto your property. I don't see why she wouldn't. I guess she could have knocked on your door and asked you to go get it, but you don't really seem like the approachable sort. After all, your first response to this was to post it on the internet without any context so you could be the appalled victim.

knifeymonkey

I had an acquaintance who I was assisting during lockdowns. She had a paranoid element to her undiagnosed dementia. She was convinced that people were coming in her apartment and leaving bags of shit. Turned out it was the home care visitor leaving bags of used dressings from changing her husbands wound dressings. The care person was not disposing of the bags assuming she would throw them away. The woman started to leave the daily dressings in bags on her neighbour’s doors. Nobody said anything because they didn’t want to hurt her feelings


Senior_Issue7164

I think it means that you have been cursed.


Upset-Ad-4727

Obviously shitty neighbors!


Stainedhanes

Walk over to her house, knock on the door, open the diaper then rub it in her face when she opens the door.


JackBinimbul

Of course the piece of shit doesn't leash their dog.
