Allyson, I'm all in favor of stealth-gnoming your neighbor into submission.

Oh! Welcome, Shir!

I say we sign him up for the Jehovah's Witnesses to come visit.

AND stealth gnome him.

Don't forget a cutout of someone bending over, a plastic Madonna, and a reflecting ball. Maybe something inflatable as well.

in my head a small army of not so stealthy nor ninja-like angry folk all dressed in black will sneak in each night to add items to the backyard and/or to wait outside for the jackhole and hit him with paintballs or water balloons or glitter bombs.

LEG LAMP!!

All you need is a piece of cardboard and a marker.

maybe we should all find "charming things" from around our home and send them c/o the decorating czar.

Thanks, guys. I would have been totally okay with a redesign of the garden, just not a hostile takeover.

And I think it's kind of dumb, since it means that instead of everyone adding their own pieces, like the horse-shaped garden lights and the dragon-fly windchimes, we'll all have to agree to conform to a specific style. Which, I guess left him out if he just wanted it to be simple and elegant.

I am really angry at that douche, but not as articulate as many of these other folks. ^^^^

I cannot tell you how long it took me to figure out that that wasn't pronounced "sock"

Oh, god, me too.
