I thought that was based on Repos, I must be confusing it with Knights of Badassdom.
Nah, Shock Treatment is the story of Repo's life.

So you are telling me if you were alone sleeping in a house in the middle of the woods and you hear laughter outside the house you will not be scared?
Nope, because if there is laughter outside of a cabin in the woods that means there are kids/teenagers up to mischief. Turn on your lights, get some stuff going to say, "Hey I'm awake," and they run off.
Dude, I'd be scared just being in a house alone in the middle of the woods. :lol:

So yeah, I'd get scared, but not scared enough to rule out some kids/teens\, or not scared enough to not get up and see what was out there.

Anyone notice kids reverting back to older forms of vandalism/pranking again?

Thought Ding Dong ditching and busting mail boxes went out a decade or two ago but it still seems pretty rampant around here. I would say 1/15 mail boxes on my mail route has been nailed with a baseball bat and it seems like there are 5-6 freshly damaged boxes every week. As for Ding Dong ditching we had that pretty regularly the last two summers nothing yet this year, but we have had kids snooping around our back yard around 12am a few nights you always hear them first then you can usually see them by the light of their cellphones and/or cigarettes.

At least we haven't had anything stolen though and thankfully flaming bags of dog shit never came back in style.

That's a much more racially sensitive for it. I don't answer my door unless expecting company, so the tom-foolery would be lost on me.


I wonder if women still place their engagement rings "diamond in" in large cities. And if purse snatchers are still a nuisance.

Make that yes and yes, but then again, this is New York.

Really? People still do that in New York? I did not see that the last time I visited, but you live there and certainly know better than me. (It also probably depends on the part of town...)
