Having your Amazon delivery stolen from your porch is a
growing problem. Having laxative or pepper-laced snacks to
punish lunch bandits at work is a common tactic. I propose to
combine the two.
A private baker creates tempting concoctions and packages
them in realistic containers with fake
company names and
addresses. Printed material advertises the mouth-watering
foodstuff with "Best Chocolate Ever!", "Betcha Can't Eat Just
One!", "Keep 'Em For Yourself!" etc. Your choice of additives
are baked in to inconvenience and disturb the thief.
The container would be just small enough to fit in the fridge
in case the local pirate misses your porch today; you can put
it inside and set it out before leaving for work tomorrow.
Perfectly safe for work

Firstly I can't find any entity that will bake my choice of
ingredients into a food, label it incorrectly and ship it to
me. |
|
| |
Second, whatever I order and get shipped to my porch is
mine. If a thief steals and gets sick from a stolen item
that's their fault. The obvious solution to avoiding such
nasty culinary surprises is NOT TO STEAL. Making the world
safe for thieves is stupid. |

Empties were starting to pile up here and I was storing them in a section of the mall and didn't have keys for the locks yet.
We have to empty liquids and separate non-refundable crap which sucks and the 14 bags I got ready to take in all took a walk in the middle of the night. So I figured it only right that if they wanted the empties they should also take the liquids those bags contained as well as whatever other garbage I had to remove suspended above their heads in a five gallon bucket with a bag of flour set to upend after the dousing when the door opened far enough to get a full bag of cans out. Then the firecrackers were primed to go off and a motion activated video camera set up to phone me when activated and record the fiasco. |

They never returned before I got the locks changed and I was very disappointed. |

Someone thinks you're a boobie. |

Can't see why, neither [2fries] nor myself have such bodily appendages. |
|
| |
But either one of you might be a funny- looking blue- footed
seabird. For all we know. |

Have you ever tried trapping one without laxatives or pepper-laced snacks? |
|
| |
//Nope. I have added hot pepper to bird seed though// |
|
| |
Your own experiment? Or something you heard about? |
|
| |
If the former then kudos! That's completely left-field. |
