DAE have a neighbor who built a brick mailbox that leans like the Tower of Pisa?

A guy down my street decided to replace his old mailbox with a brick one over the weekend. He must have mixed the mortar too wet, because the whole thing lists to one side pretty badly. Now every time the mail truck comes, the driver gives it a wide berth. We're all placing friendly bets on how long until it tips over.

That "lists starboard" line got me. My one try at brickwork was a little planter box. I was so proud until it dried and looked like it was trying to crawl away. It had a solid lean that would make a sailor dizzy. My husband still calls it my modern art piece.

Oh man, that's hilarious. My brick garden bench has a similar permanent tilt, guess it's a family trait like @leo_hart13's firepit. We just call it the relaxed seating section now.

Totally. My cousin's brick firepit lists starboard after one season.
