Clearly the author of that study does not live next door to Mike.

I tried turning the tables on her, running away from her (though I didn't use your banshee technique. I should have), and finally telling her off. She didn't talk to me again. Her dirty looks were a small price to pay! I had a nosy neighbor like this. I tried turning the tables on her, running away from her (though I didn’t use your banshee technique.

He stopped coming to brief us on stuff after my wife spotted him in the yard of the flight attendant across the street staring at the window. Why do stupers take on that spokesman role and then assume that, naturally, you will agree with them? We had one of those guys in our neighborhood.
