Christmas Lights Stolen

[terminator363]

Some dumbass stole around 30+ Christmas lights we put outside. What an idiot, right before Christmas, may he burn in hell.

Merry Christmas, I'm really ticked off.

 

[W3H5]

That's really uncool. It's a shame they weren't faulty and the bugger got a shock from trying to take them!

 

[Techy]

Wow. Can't believe the guy took that much lights.. Guess he can't afford 30+ LED lights..


I also found the OP funny in diction. Does that mean I'll burn in hell too?

Call the police and also go scouting around to see if anyone has house suddenly got lights that look like yours.

Imagine him dismantling the lights, then AAAaAGGGHHH! *zzzzzzzzz*

 

[ilikewaffles11]

Why would somebody even do that? That's just stupid.

They were either LEDs or Low Power Bulbs meaning no real zap.

 

[Bopop4]

It baffles me as to why anybody would do that.
At least you didn't have this kind of setup and have it stolen.

Good idea, I'm not calling the police because it isn't that big of a deal. 🤬 I guess we're going out to get new lights, ugh, another $30 blown.

Were they the big bulb type, or the little led or small bulb type?

I miss the sound of the big bulb type popping as I threw them.

There's someone near were I live, about 10 minutes away who's house looks like that.

 

[jagdrag77]

Dude, that sucks! Who would even have the nerve to steal Christmas lights, so close to Christmas? 👎

Atleast the crim didn't attempt to break into your house, I guess.

Another idea is to wire up a movement senor to activate something like this.


And have a loud speaker to play music.

This will attract people so the thief will be seen stealing the lights next time.

 

[Antonisbob]

That's most certainty unpleasant. Are people really that poor?

 

[astrosdude91]

I was just watching a report on the news about someone in a southwest Houston neighborhood going around and cutting people's Christmas lights. That coupled with the reports every year about manger scenes, Christmas presents, and Christmas trees being stolen. It just baffles me how someone could ruin Christmas like that. Some real Grinches out there.

 

[terminator363]

We just went out to get new ones, we've replaced the stolen ones. If those dip :censored:s have the nerves to do it again I will snap.

 

[klassykid9801]

Stolen christmas lights??? What is this world coming to?

 

[shmogt]

Ahhaaha such a dick move. It's so much work to steal them too. You need like pliers, a ladder, gloves, takes like an hour lol.

 

[Minty]

Someone knifed our 12' inflatable snow man last year. I know how you feel.

Too bad people can't take a break from being ass:censored:s on the holidays.

 

[Prince.M5]

Sorry to hear that mate... Well, people can steal anything nowadays. I think the ass:censored: is pretty professional, prior to what shmogt said...

 

[terminator363]

^ They were on the ground, so all the crook had to do was unscrew them.

@GrayFox

We have 3-4 neighbors living next to us with identical lights and we were the only victims .

Some people are scumbags.

That'd be epic. Imagine him sneaking up then suddenly 'You scumbag, you maggot, you cheap lousy faggot' from Fairytale of New York starts playing at full volume.

Or just BOOOP! BOOOP! type alarm.

That would be amazing, just those lyrics really loud

I house on my paper round has something similar. I was walking past this morning, just along the pavement and it set their burglar alarm off. I think he must have wired it up to the lights because all their lights started flashing, christmas music playing and all the such. This would have been ok if its wasn't 6am in the morning. Thing is I have never set it off before in the 2 years I have delivered to them, and the lights were up for 2 weeks before this happened??

 

[Lain]

I used to steal people's Christmas lights too, until I took an arrow to the knee.

 

[Minty]

Have you considered bear traps?
