The silent competition over who has the most aggressively cheerful yard flag is my street's new normal.
I woke up to find my neighbor had planted a bright pink 'Happy Day' banner directly facing my bedroom window, and I'm honestly considering countering with a solid black one.
Seriously, is your neighbor actually that cheerful or are they just trying to WIN? That forced positivity feels like a lot of pressure. The black flag sounds like the only honest response.
