damn and here i thought i was being original…

the laxatives in the drink bottle are good idea, but if the seal has been broken they might not drink it. Other wise get a cheap chocolate cake, 3 packets of chocolate flavoured laxatives, crush them up and sprinkle them on the cake and whoala!!!

then just keep an eye out for a dude with explosive diarrhea…

I would get a bear trap, like one of the oldschool, wiley coyote type bear traps, put bed sheet, or moving blanket over it, and then put something cheap, yet desirable on it. put like a football or something on it. then when he reaches in to nick to your football, he gets his arm chopped off instead. He runs away, you got his arm, get prints, find out who it is, and then beat the shit out of him. ROFL

I’m just joking, but that turned out to be a pretty good/hilarious plan…to me at least.

Have you guys seen the car security system that is essentially a 360 degree flamethrower? lol

It was ONE dude, who made a flaming anti-hijacking system. I don’t understand how the whole world heard about lots of people having these so-called systems.

lmao!

When I was in college, we had gym class and some guys left their clothes in open lockers, myself included. I never had any money, so no problem for me. One guy lost his high school ring, another a watch and money as well. This went on for weeks off and on, figured someone would buy a $2 lock by then.

Security did nothing to stop the petty thefts. One guy brought in an old pair of pants and a shirt and left them in a locker. The pockets were full of those double-edged razor blades mixed in with some cut up paper and washers. Nothing of value at all. We came back from gym, went to the locker room and saw a trail of blood going away from the locker area. From then on, no more theft problem.

As for trucks, I always had a problem with people throwing stuff in the bed. Not nuch you can really do about it. All I ever kept in mine was the spare tire and jack, both too rusty for anyone to take a liking to.

So do you beat him with his own severed arm?

This is definitely what you need.

This is optional.

I like all the mentioned ideas, but 2 stuck out as brilliant, and making it better would be combining the 2. Piss plus Ex-Lax FTW.

Seriously though, if you knew who it was, personally I would chin-check the shit out of him in front of everyone. Yes I know it’s not very diplomatic, but I fucking hate thieves. Call him out in front of your co-workers and let everyone know he is a piece of shit thief who is not worth the piss in the water bottle he just drank from.

Sorry, feeling kinda agro this morning.

So what happened on the stake out?
