I sort my recycling to make it easier for you, Sir Bottle Bum. Deposit bearing containers in one bag, the rest in another. This weekend I left them outside my door, in my back yard, on private property. Out of sight of the road. Under a deck, in fact.
My collection day had not yet come, so I did not put them out.
I came home from work today to find that they had been stolen, and random other recyclables from other people had been dumped in my garbage can. In my back yard. Inside my fence.
This is private property. You stole from me. I could call the cops. If I ever catch you, I will. And I will have you charged out of principle. When those bottles are on the street, give’er. But take them from my yard and I will see you right to jail. I will do absolutely everything in my power to ensure that you go.
Don’t steal my shit. Don’t violate my private boundaries. You are not entitled to those bottles. And you do not get to root around my house looking for shit to steal.
I think from now on I will collect my own deposits. Fuck you, Sir Bottle Bum. —Done Helping You Out

Didn’t the trailer park boys teach you anything?
You can’t go to jail for theft under 1000.
An assortment of used syrnges and razor blades dipped in fecal matter,scattered haphazardly amongst the bottles will provide a long term solution,depending on how long it takes for massive infection to set in.
For immediate results, try one of these:

Remember to double check the noise bylaws in your neighborhood before deploying MetalStorm. Like a good neighbor should.
Boo fucking Hoo! Your recyclables were taken by someone who doesn’t make as much money as you! Whaaaaah! You’ll find the culprit in the Hope Cottage line-up…
Seems you put more time and effort into sorting your bottles than what they are worth.
Your space is your space OP, and you have a right to be pissed.
There’s some dipshit who drives around Cole Harbour in a pickup snatching up anything recyclable he can find. Hubs caught him trying to steal one of our bikes last year.
Yeah meaty. you WILL find them in the hope cottage lineup. Where THEY PUT THEMSELVES.
Sorry. In a place like this, your problems are, 90% of the time, your own damn fault.
My property is armed with cameras. When the trash is by the curb, it’s all yours, garbage ranger. I also sort my recycling for the same reason. To make it easier for our friendly neighbourhood recycling sorters.
You come in my yard? That’s what the cameras and slingshots are for.
Sorry officer. I shot a slingshot (not illegal) at a prowler.
Crayons dear, I told you: You can’t fuck me, I’m gay!
You did?
I guess i missed that.
“Boo fucking Hoo! Your recyclables were taken by someone who doesn’t make as much money as you! Whaaaaah!”
Wrong, Sebastabitch. The OPs PROPERTY was STOLEN by some scumbag who had absolutely no RIGHT to even be in the yard, let alone be putting his shitstained cockskinners on said PROPERTY.
How difficult is that to understand?
Invest in a rotweiller and a baseball bat.
At first I thought this was a Mike Duffy article.
Had a guy in my area that would pick through and then leave me crap that wasn’t worth anything AND wasn’t recyclable. So I stopped putting out my blue bag till the am. If you want them take them, I don’t want someone else s garbage back.
The problem here, for the stupid who can’t see this, is that there is a PERSON ON YOUR PROPERTY PROWLING AROUND.
I’m not SUPPOSED to know that this person has no intention of harming me. All I know is what i can see with my eyes. And if there is someone skulking around my yard, that’s what i see. I’m not going to take the time to analyze the situation or make some sort of socioeconomic justification. I’m going to react.
If I react, it means that I could end up doing harm to a person who isn’t going to hurt me. And i don’t want that.
Don’t be so stupid. What sort of boonies are you people from that make you impervious to potentially impending danger.
PROWLERS DO NOT REPRESENT A SAFE SITUATION. EVER.
Who’s Sebastabitch?
He is the guy who USED to be the board’s token gay identified thick skulled hate monger.

This just reinforces what’s wrong with our so called justice system;

Fucking unbelievable. Run up the white flag; we no longer have a society worth defending.
Oh! That’s an even better bio statement! Thanks SupG!
