My best friend in middle school had an older brother who was having issues at work with someone stealing his lunch. So he booby trapped the lunchbox. He got in a lot of trouble when it went off.

My big annoyance today is more family chaos surrounding the proper care of my mother in law. The fact that my sister in law HATES my wife and refuses to speak to her except through proxies is making things impossible.

Been there done that - nothing like shredded jalapenos, epsom salts and a little sugar stuffed into the filling of a pie to sort them out and nothing like epsom salts in drinks to do the same
Ahhh, I was wondering why they had strange taste in cars.
Recently saw a you tube video showing how to get into a Tesla by confusing the sensors - no electronic gear required. Scary stuff.

My late father in law had a problem with gasoline theft from an elevated tank on his rural farm. He suspected a nephew, so filled the tank with diesel. The nephew's car was found 3/4 mile down the road, tank full of diesel.
Ok - this one is good.
Roadworks in a country area near us - gear all left overnight. Some guys were going up north for a holiday
and wanted some extra diesel. Where better to get some 'cheap' than the diesel trailer at the roadworks.
One of them had a broken leg in plaster and was on crutches - pertinent to the latter part of this.
Middle of the night and off they go. They were filling jerry cans when the police car turned up. A farmer up the hill
had noticed people there and phoned in.
They all got in their 4WD and took off as fast as they could - in the process driving up the side of a large pile of gravel
and tipping the 4WD on it's side. These blokes had shall we say, been in contact with police several times in the past
over drug use etc.
The farmer (who I know) said he got down there and the police were in no hurry to chase these blokes up, plus
they thought everything about the goings on was quite humorous.
They explained that not only had these clowns half wrecked their own vehicle but they had also taken off on foot except one
who had taken off on crutches - the imprints from the hobbling miscreant were clear in the gravel - they knew exactly
who that was plus the vehicle rego confirmed another.
The real kicker was these guys had almost got away with stealing several jerry cans full from a Main Roads water trailer.
As a police sergeant once told me, it's really handy that most criminals really are stupid buggers.

The news media only covers sports that are concerned with a ball. But, as Earnest Hemingway once said "There are only three sports- Bullfighting, mountain climbing, and motor racing. The others are mere games."
...or your mother in law might "borrow" it.
You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose but you can't pick your family.

Ingrown toenail, no more needs to be said!
Someone tried that on my new VW Jetta a few months ago. They removed a panel on the front bumper to get through the headlight area to the wiring. It happened late evening in a store parking lot. I must have walked out of the store and they took off. Had to order a new panel and get it painted.
They would not have gotten far, though. I have an app on my phone that shows where my car is located.

I own a 2011 Chevy HHR panel (it has no back seats or Windows) and it is the only one in the area.
Aside from the fact that it is unique and therefore high profile, I still have connections to local law enforcement - any douchebag tries to steal my Chevy won't get far and most likely will have an issue falling up a flight of stairs on their way to the back seat of the patrol vehicle.
Pictured is my HHR next to a '50 GMC, who's body style was the inspiration for Chevy's retro HHR (Heritage High Roof).

That's like people thought I was nuts when I asked about removing the key transponder on the wife's Audi. I pointed out, at that time, there had only been 8 of that model stolen in the US total, in the previous 14 years, with a little over 30,000 of them imported in the same time frame.
