After my grandmothers funeral today, our family had a dinner at her house. I parked in front of her house. As I got out of the car, three kids STOLE pomegranates from my grandmothers tree. Then, the proceeded to throw them at my TSX in front of my face! I called the cops and hopefully they will take care of the punks.

 

Sorry to hear that. Knowing how anal you're about your car I take my hat off to you for not having stabbed the little feckers.

 

I'd have done the same to them with the knife in my car...































ok, maybe not. But surely, I'd have grabbed one by the neck and squizzed a little. These punks need to learn there are consequences to being stupid.

 

I called the cops and they said that was petty theft and vandalism. He said that the next time, I can physically hold them until the cops get there and even hit them if they hit first...EVEN if they are under 18. However, he said to use good judgement because young kids these days have knives and even guns.

 

Interesting. Some good info we can all use

 

Lock them in the TSX until the cops get there

 

I hear yah man...

I am an RA at my college, and just this Thursday, all of my freshmen residents moved in. This morning, I woke up to see a group of them in the parking lot playing frisbee standing no less than a foot from my TSX (which is less than 2 weeks old). I tried to let it go, but then one of the bastards decided to lean on trunk, so I ran down and moved it to another parking lot. Perhaps I am just too anal, but don't kids have any respect for the property of others?

 

They weren't taught any better. My dad taught us proper automotive manners at a very early age. Rule #1 : Don't play on, in, or near the car. Rule #2: Don't touch a car without permission of the owner. Rule #3: No eating, drinking or puking in the car. Violation of any of these rules was punishable by an ass whippin'.

 

 

dude you're a teacher so our hope is in your hands !

 

Good idea. I'll have a random quiz on proper car etiquette.

 

Here's a question you can ask:

When you spot a TSX pulling into a driveway, do you:

A) Get down and do the "were not worthy" bow.
B) Pray that someday you too will have such an awesome car.
C) Run and tell your parents that you have rejected all urges to throw pomegranate seeds after seeing such a beautiful car.
D) ALL OF THE ABOVE.

 

I cannot believe you didn't chase them down and drag at least 1 back to your house!!!!!

I would have....then called the cops on them!
