The OP sounds similar to an incident a couple years ago when the wife & I were at the Portillos in Merrillville. That character was hanging around looking into cars in the parking lot. We had the management call the police, who arrested him after questioning him. Whether the OP was being sarcastic or not, it was a plausible cautionary tale about maintaining situational awareness and not over-reacting to a perceived possible threat. The rest of you oh-so-smart characters who deride others who didn't realize that it was phony aren't doing anything to advance the cause of situational awareness for self-defense; you're just being jerks.

Ouch that hurt my internet feelings!!!

Seeing as I repped the OP for the fun factor of the post and he too was surprised at the amount of people here that took it seriously maybe your just wound a little too tight.

I suggest 2 chill pills and post again in the morning..

I went inside the store and headed back to the toilets. After some deliberation, I finally decided on a toilet that had flush rating of 5 stars.

Would you mind sharing the brand and model number? I've been having a heck of a time with a particular toilet in my house. Also, I was unable to find the flush ratings on the brands at Lowes, Menards, or Home Depot. Did you have to ask an employee for their product brochures?

Thanks to the OP. This thread has helped us in so many ways.

Defensive posture

In my opinion he did exactly what needed to be done you were not overly aggressive let the intruder know that this was not going to be easy and Has pointed out in the other threads most these are not looking for a confrontation they want to run up and knock you down grab your wallet and personal items steal your car and get out if there is even the slightest possibility that it won't end well for them they are not interested

 

[Easy1]

Hopefully you guys fist-bumped each other cause you actually pushed your cart into the corral! UHG WTH is up with lazy people that just leave their cart next to their car when they leave!? These people didn't have good parenting and need smacked!

Even after all of the comments pointing out this BLANTANTLY embellished and sarcastic OP people still don't get it.

Buy a Toto brand toilet at your local plumbers supply. It will work flawlessly.

I'm sorry, but after such a traumatic incident, I seem to have forgotten what the brand and model was.

Got me , nice job but had it been a real situaiton it was written as being handled well in my view..

 

[BSUrugger]

The OP did a good job. But if it were me I would have slid over the hood of the SUV while releasing my pet doves while spin kicking in the air helicopter style, relieving the assailant of a face.

Home Depot parking lot is not safe either!!!!!!




A heads up for INGO men who may be regular Home Depot customers in the area. This one caught me by surprise.

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic.
Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.
Here's how the scam works:
Two seriously good-looking 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your bags into the trunk. They both start wiping your
windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to look.
When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride to McDonald's. You agree and they get in the backseat.
On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.

I had my wallet stolen June 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th & 29th. Also July 1st, 5th, twice on the 8th, 16th, 23rd, 26th, 30th, three times last Saturday and very likely again
This upcoming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful.
P.S. Wal-mart has wallets on sale $2.99 each.

My better half spit out her drink while I was reading this one to her, and still laughing.. Nice one dude!!
