(no subject)

someone's just took the tree from our garden. The Christmas tree that we picked out special and strung with lights. It was a 7 foot tree and they climbed over our 6 foot fence and just took it. I hate people. I know it's only a tree but to just take it. what kind of person would do that?

God I'm crying over a stupid tree here. Sorry.

Dammit, what the hell is wrong with some people? Do you think it's the same people who stole the tank? I just don't understand why some guys (well, I'm talking about guys, but who knows...) would actually fucking steal something! They do have some nerves too! Assholes!

I'm so sorry for you, sis, you were so happy about your tree! I'm pissed off on your behalf.

You DON'T have to be sorry.

It's a tree that you painstakingly decorated, and you have EVERY RIGHT to be angry. The nerve of some people! Could they be the ones who took the aquarium?

*HUGS*

OMG Terri! That's the worst, lowest, vilest, scum sucking-est, lamest, most horrible, atroicios, dispicable, rotten, mean, evil, terrible, awful, disgusting, how-low-can-some-people-GO-est, thing I think I've ever heard.

Stealing a Christmas tree? What are they, the Grinch? Scrooge??

Bastards. Every one of them.

*HUGS*

OK, that's it; I'm pissed beyond measure.

Terri, don't you or James or Corey freak out when you accidentally catch sight of a ninja lurking under the eaves above your garden.

That'll be me, waiting to exact vengeance on your behalf, and I know a -=LOT=- of ways to kill people. And injure them. Severely. And I specialize in mental torture, though I'm doubting these Neanderthals have enough intelligence to make that worthwhile.

Seriously, I'm so pissed off I can't stand it. I'm, like, actively concentrating on invoking karma and hoping these ABSOLUTE BASTARDS get what they deserve. Preferably three- or ten- fold.

(((((((((huggles)))))))))

what kind of person would do that?
the kind of person who steal empty fish tanks from yards!

God I'm crying over a stupid tree here. Sorry.
No need to be sorry, love! and I guess it's not the "stupid tree" you're crying about, it's the act! who would steal a tree? someone entered your garden, of course you're shaken! everyone would be! it's unfair!

Terri, love, it's okay to cry and let go. Is James around? And Corey? huggle them! cause I know that a nice e-huggle is nice, but not the same thing.

Grrrr these kind of people make me go balistic - I want to shake my fist at them and say that it's not fair! especially hurting my friends grrrr!

if you need anything, if there's anything I could do?

(((((huggles)))))

it's a horrid feeling, having your space violated - and even if it's just a tree, it's a tree that you put time/effort/money into getting and decorating. hope those jerks get what's coming to them v. v. soon!

is there anyway you can light something else in your garden? maybe string lights in a bare tree already planted there, or along the house or something; something that would be festive, but much harder for morons to steal.

Awww, honey, I'm so sorry **hugs** people in this country are out of fucking control. That's positively disgusting. The tank I kind of wasn't surprised about, people nick beds, armchairs, carpets, TVs, anything you put out, but your Christmas Tree? Insane **hugs you again** don't be sorry, it's them that should be. Arseholes.

Bastards! What a horrible thing to do. I'm not surprised you're crying -- I'm sure I would be too.

{hugs}

That's terrible!

Everybody else pretty much said all of the things I was thinking, but I wanted you to know how pissed off I am for you. People can be such assholes sometimes.

Terri, I'm so sorry honey, that really sucks. We have a problem around here with people stealing garden gnomes and Canadian flags (real fuckin' patriotic to *steal* a flag.) Short of putting barbed-wire up, you can put some oil/lubricant on the fence to deter them. Because once they start to climb, it will be slippery and someone will be more likely to notice something going on.

My dad did that with the chain-link fence we have out back... put some really thick lubricant on it so that when the teenagers started to climb it, they slipped. Of course it was dark out and we heard one of them exclaim, "Eww... it's covered in dog shit." LOL!

There's absolutely nothing wrong with being upset about this. It is horrible vandalism, and it is within your garden, so it makes you feel unsafe.

I like the idea of oil on the wall... but my sister had an alternate suggestion. You could string a wire (attached to an air-horn or alarm? or with large bells on it?) inside your garden, quite near the wall, so people trying to get over will encounter it. It wouldn't work if you have animals though.

I hope that your vandal gets what's coming to him!

(now would be the perfect time for an angry icon!)

I'm so sorry that this has happened! Any chance of the police getting involved? After all, you did see the bastards who stole the tank... I'm so pissed on your behalf, hon.

(on a happier note, I got the lovely holiday card that you sent, today! thank you!)
