Watched three Dateline episodes in a row and now I think my neighbor's new shed is very suspicious...

So I watched three Dateline episodes back to back last night the one with the husband and the "boating accident" was the last one and this morning I looked out my kitchen window and Gary next door was building a shed... at 7am... on a Sunday!! Now I'm sure it's a perfectly normal shed... but he did buy a LOT of concrete and when I waved he only half waved back... ngl keith Morrison would have something to say about that half wave, that's all I'm saying... I told my grandson Tyler and he said "Grandma you

pam. PickleballPam58. gary is building a shed at 7am on a sunday because hes a dad and thats the only time dads build sheds. three hours of keith morrison voice will do this to you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias

but ok whats the "he did"?? you cant just leave that h

So I watched three Dateline episodes back to back last night the one with the husband and the "boating accident" was the last one and this morning I looked out my kitchen window and Gary next door was building a shed.

gary was WHAT. you cant just stop there, i've been up since 5 because a moth looked at me funny

also three Dateline episodes in a row is how i ended up convinced my landlord was poisoning the hallway ferns he wasn't. probably. finish the sentence please

ok but the real question is whether gary poured a concrete floor. a shed on gravel is just a shed. a shed on fresh concrete poured at 7am on a weekday is a Dateline episode with keith morrison narrating "gary was a planner"

my uncle built a shed once and all he ever kept in it was one lawnmower and about 40 jars of pickled eggs nobody asked for. so sometimes the shed is hiding something but its just eggs. tbh still a crime if you ask me

if it turns out boring you should sneak over and paint a tiny door with a little doorknob on the side of it. thats not vandalism thats a gift. gary gets a fairy shed and you get closure

lol the pickled eggs thing got me... lowkey my grandpa had a shed and it was mostly broken telescopes because he kept "upgrading" and couldnt let the old ones go. tbh i was gonna judge him for that but i own four ukuleles and cant play any of them!! so yeah also i love that someone said "gary was a planner"... thats the Dateline narrator voice exactly. you can hear the ominous piano right after it lol

fwiw most sheds go up in the fall because people want the patio furniture out of the rain, so it's probably just chairs. BUT if your neighbor starts going out there at weird hours with a flashlight... maybe they're just into astronomy?? October is great for it, the Orionids peak later this month and you can catch a couple dozen meteors an hour from somewhere dark. a shed is a perfect spot to keep a telescope too!! i was gonna say something else but forgot what... anyway the most likely ending here is lawnmower, pickled eggs, or a guy secretly into space, and i'd honestly be happy with the space guy

...at weird hours with a flashlight... maybe they're just into astronomy?? October is great...

the old ones are usually better built anyway my neighbor has a whole drawer of quartz watches that died in like three years each, meanwhile my dads mechanical still runs if you wind it... your grandpa probably knew exactly what he was doing

yeah my grandpa had a mechanical one too and refused to replace it EVER lol but wait back to the shed 👀 if your neighbor is out there at 2am with a flashlight thats either telescope stuff or a Dateline episode, no third option 🚀🔭

there's def a third option, 2am flashlight could just be a guy hunting slugs my dad did that for like an entire summer, salt shaker in one hand and flashlight in the other, total war on the hostas. the neighbors probably thought he was burying somebody too

anyway if gary starts buying lime in bulk we can talk
