No moat around the path

is that a snake pit? too bad she could just walk stoking all the obstacles…

What? No howitzer?

Land mines, alligator pits, radar detectors….This guy’s got it made!!

Hope mother-in-law isn’t an American Ninja Warrior. She’ll have no problem with that wall or snake pit!

Complete with mother-in-law already installed.

But the fence doesn’t go around to the back of the house. MIL can escape, I mean, go out the back door.

… with an obstacle course in between.

It ain’t perfect but it gets the point across! And, it’s a cartoon!!

The HOA made them take down the searchlights and machine gun guard towers. I want the chain-fed duce at the garage sale.

This one is 2007 BB. It’s a good one though.

That wouldn’t be enough to keep my evil MIL away….

Trivial Factoid:

In 1984 the movie “The Terminator” introduced audiences to the instantly iconic T-800, an android assassin from the future. The Terminator’s titular antagonist had a chilling, uncanny demeanor that made the T-800 an unforgettable villain and turned director James Cameron’s low-budget sci-fi horror flick into a blockbuster classic. The role of the T-800 android was played by competitive bodybuilder turned actor:

Arnold Squashing Nectar.

Apparently, the MIL does not want company. Don’t blame her really.

Looks like prime real estate to me

Fastest sale ever…

Well if the MIL is an old witch, she could just hop on her broom and fly over the obstacles.

Is that a cow with a friggin’ laser implanted in its head? :)

Fill the other pit with piranha, just in case.

No moat with alligators?….

He’s smiling.

Boy, someone really loves his mother-in-law . . .
