Default Christmas Light Bandits!!!

We, like many of our neighbors, have a string of lights along the driveway. It seems that one of our neighbors had a few bulbs burnt out and snatched a few of ours to replace theirs.

WTF kind of Christmas spirit is that?? I'd like to see who's doing it....

Yeah, I thought I'd go grab a couple from each neighbor and just wait...but I'd probably get caught

Personally, I'd steal a few from each neighbor, then I'd hide out with my paintball gun set on full auto and wait for someone to steal them back

Go to your neighbors house and start smashing some bulbs.. When they ask what you're doing, just say you evening them out to match your missing bulbs..

Lol. Yea, the reindeer joke is great. Once you put them into 'position', the one in back even has his neck arched back and all

Well....the little bandits are at it again - this time the freaking CUT the wires. With wire cutters - two nice CLEAN cuts.

The other half picked up all the lights and put them in the garage.

Later that day she spots two little neighborhood ******** trying to grab some of our neighbor's lights - in broad daylight. These are two of the same kids that thought it was a good idea to bust open my neighbor's fence and beat on his two boxers. She yelled at them like they were her kids - but she's a first grade teacher, so she's pretty good at that

I think I'm going to put a sign out that says something like "We had lights out, but now someone else has them. Merry F$%^ing Christmas"
