An apology has been made, and a sign with a vulgar word perched on a rooftop is gone. Alex White said he wasn’t going to take down a large orange sign he affixed to his chimney that read, “To the Nieghbor (sic) who called the police on Easter: F*@K yourself!” until he received an apology from his neighbour for calling police after hearing White and his wife arguing.
White says he has now received a short signed-and-dated apology letter from his neighbour. He said he would like the neighbour to know “there are no hard feelings and hope we can become friends.” White was so angry with his neighbour for ruining his Easter morning with the call to police, he decided to send a clear and colourful message back with the sign. “I only meant it to stay for an hour,” White said earlier. “I just wanted that one rude person to know how rude I could be back for disrupting our religious holiday.”
The sign stood on his roof until 10:50 p.m. on Thursday when he took it down, 10 minutes after receiving the apology letter. During an interview earlier in the day, White said, “It’s what everybody wants to say to that one neighbour who sticks their nose in other people’s business where it doesn’t belong.” White said he and his wife were having a loud discussion about their son’s bad behaviour. White’s wife said she didn’t care for police being called either. “I am a bit irritated, yes. Because, what, nobody argues? Please, nobody gets loud?” she said.
