To the A-Hole that stole my Extension Cords

[jolinar of malkshor]

Were you really that hard up that you needed to steal 3 extension cords?

Another reason why I am leaving Calgary.

[OILFAN #81]

Sorry, I needed them for my early Christmas decorations.

My Enmax bill was getting out of control so ... the cords aren't the only thing I'm 'borrowing'.

You try tieing up a squirming body in the trunk with just your belt!

Were you really so careless that you left property of value unattended and expected it to be there when you returned. This ain't Mayberry, it's a big city. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

And before some smart a** says anything, no I did not drive away without unplugging.

Oh give me a break. Do you use the same line when somebody steals a car (how could you leave your car unattended in that parking lot, you deserve to have it stolen) or comes onto ones property and takes ANYTHING?

Not to mention, am I suppose to have 24 hour surveillance on my extention cords while my vehicles are plugged in? Give your head a shake.

Ha.
Let me know when you find a city without thieves.

Yeah, you should totally leave Calgary for all of those cities that are completely imune to petty crime. That's some good decision making.

I bet it was a pot smoker. You just can't trust them.

[Matata]

I'm with the OP, same crap happened to me.

Thats always been one of the unwritten rules of Suburbia "Don't steal extension cords no matter how easy it would be."

[4X4]

I hear there's no crime in Edmonton... You might not like the climate though.

If you do decide to stay in Calgary, next time pop your hood and leave the connection in there. That way the worst these criminals can do is unplug your cord at the house. Or sever it. Or sever it and strangle someone with it.

Ray Emery has been through enough this week.

You really think this'll never happen anywhere else?

It's a big city where it's pretty normal for neighbors to play loud music at night......

Am I right?

[Thunderball]

The separation between man and beast is pretty fine...what can I say?

I've had two soccer balls stolen from me at UofC playing rec league... they weren't even new balls, they were old and visibly worn!... which is the only reason I took them there in the first place, since they were due for replacement anyway. Extension cords that look like new and work fine are an even more valuable commodity... there are people out there that would take used wallpaper if it was left unattended.

[Old Yeller]

I came here for inside info on some supposed used wallpaper that was being left unattended.

Its on the corner of Macleod and 17th... why would someone throw it away, its like new!

[Slava]

I guess I'll be the first to say that it does really suck, and I do have some empathy for you!

Clearly we need more police on the streets to crack-down on these reckless individuals...

Where are you moving? I could use some extension cords...
