Traffic cone and note left on my car today

What's annoying is that I was sitting outside in view of my car for the first 20 mins, then went indoors. So they either waited until I disappeared or it was just pot luck they didn't do it when I was around. Would have loved to have asked him what he/she was doing and then explain why what they were doing was misguided :)

It would be great to actually catch someone doing this!

Should have waited for them to get home and called them names and made farting sounds in their general direction, its the only way if you ask me. Nah nah ne nah nah is hard to fault, its worked for years!

Actually stealing their cone would have been cool followed by 10 years of ransom notes sent to them with bits of their cone and photos of it all over the road married to a weekly skip delivery to said parking spot full of cones!

If I had to be involved in a same-sex marriage to someone off this forum i'd marry you housemaster. Whether you like it, or not.
 
Skiddley You had sellotape in your car? Dib dib.

I run a paintball site so I have all sorts of weird bits and bobs in the car. :D

I think I have one of these in the boot at the moment

I shouldnt admit to these things publicly but ah well.

Had a motorcycle chained to a lamp post while at a mates house one night, woke up the next morning to have my bike pretty much covered in "post-it notes", it looked as tho someone had first put a single note on saying this is not a parking spot ( i was on the footpath tight against a wall chained to the street light), and then preceeded to put another note on it for every hour it had been sitting there.

At first i thought it was funny to see the bike with literally a hundred post its on it but when i tore them all off they left the gluey residue behind with the morning dew etc and it was an absolute nightmare to clean off.

My mate said that the resident coffin dodger next door to him had a habit of moaning about anything and everything so i had a polite knock on his door. He admitted that he had seen me pull up and that he didnt appreciate my parking on the path beside his house.

Now gentlemen i must humbly apologise for my childish behaviour but the next morning i stole his garden gnomes and when i was on a runout the next weekend i took a picture of the gnomes on the back of the bike and mailed it to him. (got the address from my mate)

To this day i still have the gnomes :)

Just grind the VINs off first so it can't be traced.

...But you wouldn't do that because nobody should do it!

You must have a lot of time on your hands if you spent all the effort to get rid of the VIN numbers and dump a tranny with no front hubs or a rear axle in a parking spot just because someone left a note on your car. :eek:

Having been in a similar situation in the past, I can assure you that the mature action is never to take the cone, leave a note saying 'thanks for the cone, bitches!' taped to the nearest lampost then dump an old Transit in the space a week later with no front hubs or rear axle and a cone superglued to the roof.

No. You should never do that.

Guy dad works with did similar once. Took some prized gnomes off someone and then took them on holiday with him and sent back pictures of the gnomes next to all sorts of famous European land marks. Everyone else at work was apparently in tears but unfortunatly so was the owner of the gnomes.
 
I have left a trailer in a street before , and nearly got attacked on my return by an irate resident who was waiting for me.. - I think he decided I was a bit big after all.....

It was a big trailer mind you..... :o

15 minutes to remove the VINs and about 45 minutes to get the tranny there and Hi-ab the shell into place. Maybe 2 minutes to glue the cone on?

It was rotting in the corner of a friends yard. Bottle of JD and he agreed to do it.
