The ability to Standout is not difficult, especially when your John Doe number 8. In these amusing, yet flabbergasting sequentially detailed events, the author finds himself documenting his redneck neighbors’ questionable actions. I’m sure everyone has been guilty of checking out their neighbor’s new project from time to time, but not nearly to the level of the man from the article. The ‘Redneck neighbor’ article starts off with the introduction of John Doe #8 and the neighborhood, which will never be the same. For the sake of limiting confusion I’m going to give the author a name, let’s go with Bill. Bill introduces John Doe #8 (JD8) as someone who would fit into the neighborhood stating, “he drives REALLY nice cars”, as seen in the pictures. A question to keep in mind is do our personal luxuries correlate or define our personalities and living styles? Like any homeowner, we care about what our neighbors do to their curb appeal just ask much as our own homes; no one wants their proper value to diminish because of their neighbors. The first incident documented by Bill is the theft of wood from neighboring homes under construction so that JD8 could build his own mail box; this event triggers the continuous observation of JD8 from there on. After several projects gone wrong and calls to the police, Bill has become fed up with his neighbor and is salivating over the opportunity for him to go to jail or move out of the neighborhood. Bill is clearly upset because he and his wife can’t sleep at night from the noise coming from JD8’s stereo system, or from the various animals that have been housed on JD8’s property. I don’t believe that JD8 is intentionally annoying Bill or any of his neighbors for that matter; I think that JD8 is just someone who comes from a different background than his fellow neighbors. I would consider JD8 the outlier of the neighborhood
