Unlocking this post now that we've had a day to relax. Please be kind.

G̶litter bombs for porch pirates

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As much as I dislike Mark Rober I have to admit he did some funny videos with glitter bombs against porch pirates.

What do you dislike about him out of interest?

To me he seems a genuinely passionate guy who encourages children to learn more and get excited about what science can do.

You people have crazy lives to have multiple packages stolen pet year. That shit would just smell and be nasty for me.

Seriously, I'm feeling really nice about where I'm living.

Yeah my neighbours would give it a day then knock on the door to see if you were ok

I would highly recommend not fucking with people. It may sound fun, you may think they deserve it. But it's not going to be equally fun when they return to throw a rock through you window.

These are not normal people. Normal people don't steal packages from strangers. You don't know what other instability they have. And you probably don't want to find out either.

It's just not worth it.

Thanks for the PSA.

Then you videotape them doing it and put them on blast on social media and jailed.

Stop living in fear of bullies. You have to fight back and go to war against them in life. Nut up.

And when is dark, and no one can be identified on the video. Then what? Congratulations on somehow "standing up to bullies". Sure showed them who's the boss with your broken window.

This reminds me, they now sell these collapsible litter boxes so that when they're full you just toss the whole thing out. Talk about lazy shit, as if cats weren't already a lazy man's pet.

lazy man’s pet

lol, yeah ok. Cats generally don’t do anything for you no matter what, so cat owners have to do everything for themselves and the cat, but dog owners can train their dogs to go get the morning paper, open the fridge to get a beer, etc etc etc, where they can sit back in the recliner and watch the dog do the work. Maybe have a seat there guy.

As a man who owns cats and dogs…

Yeah, no.

I never trained my cat. I got the thing and it shit in the box automatically.

My dogs. Goodbye furniture, goodbye toys, goodbye shoes, hello giant pile of shit I’m about to step in first thing in the morning because my kid figured out how to open the lock on the overnight crate.

They’re good now, but holy shit the work it took to get there.

If I don’t pet my dogs they sit and cry about it. If I pet my cat when she don’t feel like it she bites me.

I have never had to walk my cat through a blizzard so it can shit. I’ve never had to bring my cat to work with me so it doesn’t destroy my house due to separation anxiety. I’ve never had tell my cat to stop making so much noise.

A cat is a lazy man’s pet. A cat is the perfect pet for me.

A lazy man can’t take the time to train the dog to fetch beer and papers. Mine can sit, stay, lay down, and come. Anything more than that I just don’t have the energy to make it happen.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ve owned many of both as well, and there’s no clear line. You can have cats that are into everything, mine demands to go for short walks and long hikes with a leash and harness. And you can have a dog that’s a distant friend, but only that, otherwise take care of your own shit, and this outdoor stuff is for the birds. You just never know, which is why generalizations are funny.

[–] theangryseal 5 points 1 year ago

I can’t argue with that. :p

Have a good one bud.

Seems like an ad to get people to buy more shit from Amazon.
