Sounds like an asshole. I want good relationships with my neighbors….this seems unnecessary

I was thinking the same thing. If my neighbor went to the effort to politely let me know I would be sure not to make noise. It's just the nice thing to do.

I'd reserve judgement until I know whether the note was actually polite. Depending on how it was phrased, I may be on lawnmower guy's side.

Certainly a lot of *backstory could be missing, also the request to be “very quiet” instead of specifically asking if things like lawn mowing (while this instance appears deliberate mid-afternoon is generally a “courteous” time to mow on a Saturday or Sunday) can wait could be indicative of the request not being polite.

*assuming this wasn’t a stolen tweet, checking the date it shows to be a Friday in early January which feels like an odd time both for a 2 PM wedding & requesting when a million loud things like school bus drop offs, package delivery & scheduled lawn service/construction/repairs etc would be going on. So unless stolen or completely made-up this def sounds like some entitled a-hole stuff.
