@honey_honey_12 what a brute he is. Why doesn't he offer to come over and help her fix whatever his current complaint is? Or better yet, suggest he buy better window coverings.
How old is this guy? My 88 yo neighbor is always complaining about every thing in the neighborhood but I ignore it because he's just being his cantankerous self. But your mom's neighbor needs to get a life and think of others outside of his own self.
ETA: Does she have caller ID? I wouldn't be answering the phone. At 94, it's most likely not the easiest thing to do to answer the phone all the time.
And do other neighbors have issues with him?3 -
What if the neighbor next door is just a lonely guy and has a sympathetic eye for his neighbor. What if he just wants a friend. What if the flood light was put on a motion detector. What if the neighbor is just a dick.6

He’s in his 70s, has a wife and is just one of those people that looks for things to complain about and put them on someone else.

I vote “yes” to hugs. I’m pro-hugs. But if you don’t want to be hugged, I don’t think you should have to be. I wouldn’t force my hug upon you. Despite what I’ve said I really don’t go around hugging people all the time. Well, mostly not. And….there are only a few people I would hug if they were sweaty. I’m generally anti-sweat hugs. EXCEPT for those few.

I am all for hugs. Getting, and giving. I have to be careful, because I never really thought about anyone not wanting to be hugged, but I see that there are some. Physical touch is one of my love languages, and I am very free with it.
I especially love my naked hugs with @Cat0703a.5 -
Even though I’ll probably never initiate a hug and are generally uncomfortable about them, I still like them. <(As in friends and acquaintances)
One of my favorite hug moments was from a guy friend who’d pick me up and spin me around, squeezing the life out of me out of nowhere.3 -

*warning* I’m doing that if we ever meet. Balls in your court.😏2 -

Drunk me is always trying to do that type of hug. 😅 She’s a different person though. Trouble is, I can’t lift that much so it ends at me struggling and failing. 🙃0 -

Christmas music the first week of November...I can support it throughout December, but c'mon man, can't it wait until then? Do we really need TWO months of it? At least on my radio I can choose a different station, but at the grocery store, where I have to go eventually, I don't have that option.3

I listen to Christmas music all year round. Why you gotta be such an Ebeneezer Scrooge???4

There’s nothing quite like seeing you’ve been tagged in the IRK thread on a Monday morning. 😅😂🤣
But I *hugged* that one hard. With clothes on because you know…work. 😒
Funny thing, IRL only a small few get hugs from me. My personal bubble is big and there is a huge amount of trust required to get in that space with me.

Oh yeah, don’t try to lift me. You’re going down sis. I’m not a small bish.1 -
Mind if I join teams 'pro-hugs' and 'anti- Christmas music all year long'? I enjoy Christmas music, but part of that for me is the anticipation.4

I won’t be stepping foot on his property,
apparently if I go over there it could be construed as a threat.
After talking to ex, I’ve decided not to say anything.
Ignoring him will work best.

Related to the hugs debate is the question of shaking hands. Used to be a sign of respect was to shake their hand upon meeting, again upon closing a deal or sale. These days you can't tell who is ok with hand shaking, who rejects it out of hand (so to speak), and who would rather not but will tolerate it as a sign of respect. Having to ask, "Are you ok with shaking hands," just runs counter to what I'd been taught my entire life.2

I understand and can relate to this. I'm okay with shaking hands, but these days I usually wait to see if my client or co-worker offers their hand first. It may be a little bit of a cop out, but I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable.1

Logging my food. I hate being forced to recognize how horribly I've been eating. I can't tell you how many times over the last week I've wanted to eat empty calories and had to say no.
If I'm honest, I also hate saying no to myself. I want that chocolate. I want those chips. I don't want chicken, I do want pasta. But I know if I eat the stuff I want, and stay in my calorie range, I'll be hungry. I don't like that either.
I'm not at a huge deficit. I do eat my calories back. I also do eat the stuff I want. Just in smaller quantities.
I'm just being whiny. Lol5 -

People on the internet thinking they're being clever and snarky by commenting on things I've written/said/created simply because they want to be edgy or start an argument.
No one thinks you're cool nor edgy, dude.6
