It's sunken down from the street level a bit, and every mouth-breathing turdburger that walks by has to rubberneck the fucking pool. "Oh, lookie a pool, honey! Neato!" Whenever I'm on my couch, some pair of dorks always walks by and gawks at our pool. I have no idea why, but this annoys the dick out of me. Seriously... every fucking day.

Rubber necking compounds itself. The first guy to notice the accident probably didn't slow down more than 10mph to cautiously notice what was going on. The guy behind him noticed break lights and slowed down 12mph while observing that there was indeed an accident across the road. The guy behind him slowed down by 15mph, and so on until you get there and traffic has been crawling at stop and go pace for the past half hour, naturally you are curious as to why the hell it has been so slow, then you notice "Hey wtf that car is on the other side of the road. This is bullshit; I'm going to write an article, I mean its way over there on the other side. I wish I had some beer right now, FUCK! Oh hey it sped up again sweet, I'm really moving now." Sadly, 1 mile behind you a 3 car crash occurred due to a combination of poor traffic conditions and a teenager with his head up his ass following too close to a civil war veteran. This then causing the oncoming traffic to begin rubbernecking the moment that the original accident is cleaned up. It’s an interesting phenomenon. Rubber necking compounds itself.
