Trick or treat

[Marigold2]

TRICK OR TREAT
Here is what I did...............
My friends and neighbors are Republicians. He is a retired Dr. his wife a sweet, dear friend. Every time I go there he tries to change my mind on whom to vote for. He of course thinks McCain is the way to go. The Dems are all fools, the Rep are all Gods.
He has a McCain sign on his lawn.
Two doors down another couple have two Obama signs.
See where this is going? LOL Oh yea.
The Dr now has two Obama signs on his lawn and the other couple has his McCain sign.
I wish I could see his face in the morning when he gets his paper.
TRICK OR TREAT MAN.................

And how is this any different from signs being vandalized?

Sorry, I fail to see the humor. I don't, and will never have, campaign signs in my yard, but I'd be pissed.

1) These two retired couples will meet and perhaps become friends.
2) No one was hurt.
3) Nothing was destroyed, just moved two lawns down.
4) You need a sense of humor to appreciate this. It is after all Halloween, trick or treat.
5) A bit of harmless adult fun with cloths on, no drugs or firearms were used.
6) No pets were used.
7) It's damn funny.
8) I needed to take a walk
9) It was dark and no one saw me
10) Best reason of all, it pi$$ed you off.

Are you 12?

[Marigold2]

LOL no I am 49 and full of harmless fun, adventure, daring and bull.
I am a free soul who enjoys a practical joke or two.
Believe me my friends give it to me all the time. I can either laugh or lose one of the most precious God given gifts. A sense of humor and the obsurd.

Technically... that's against the law. it is theft. A lot of people purchase those signs. so it may have been harmless fun... but never the less it WAS illegal of you to do so.

So... it may be funny to you but hope you don't get caught and hope if you do that they aren't too mad.

Sadly enough.. at my husbands work a child approx 6 years old and his friend came onto their property and took their sign... the boss caught them (he didn't call the cops or anything) but this CHILD proceeded to tell him to "F off... McCain is an F'ing A hole and to go F himself" Sad isn't it?

I would have escorted the child home, and spoken to his parents. Because you know he's not just inventing that opinion - or language - on his own!

I would be afraid to he probably learned it at home!

I thought about doing that to my sister and brother in law they have 2 mccain palin signs, I was going to borrow them and replace them with 4 obama signs and my daughter the wise one in the family talked me out of it she said they would get mad and it turns out they said they would have gotten pissed I do enjoy the prank every now and then!

THAT'S what I said. He started to chase after the kids but he decided that it might not be a good idea. when Brian told me about it I said flat out that I would follow those kids home and tell their parents that if they came on my property again i would call the police and THEY would pay the price for it. Nothing ticks me off more than young kids who display THAT kind of disrespect. and I figured it must come from home... that kind of talk... so simply telling them what happened probably wouldn't be enough. SAD

I know it probably came from his home, but his parents need to learn that its their responsibility, and the kid was doing something illegal, as well as being disrespectful.

Well the Dr called me..........He was putting his garbage out and of course noticed the signs.
Asked if I had any idea who had done this......
I started to act shocked, said "NO" but I was laughing too hard. He told me I was in trouble. Called his wife and said, "Do you know what your crazy friend did?" No No she had no idea. She is so mad at me. Why, because she didn't think of it first. The Dr is now mad at us both.
Now I am scared he is going to get me back.
I will probably have a couple of tombstones on my lawn by Friday. Perhaps even a giant billboard pronouning my insanity. Hey it's Trick or Treat I told him. Revenge will be his he said.

Along those lines those signs seem kind of wierd to me. I guess I think politics is your own business like religion I don't need to preach on my lawn and don't need others to do it either I think its just wierd.

If I put an obama sign on my lawn and my neighbor had a mccain sign it would be uncomfortable to me.

At least you arent stealing roadside crosses, thats a story for another day though.

Respect your neighbor.

If someone put an "Obama" sign, sticker, ANYTHING anywhere NEAR me, I'd burn it. Our country is in SERIOUS trouble if he's elected. I don't normally get involved in politics, other than keeping myself informed of the issues at hand so I can make an educated opinion, and vote, if applicable.

I ALWAYS have very correct "gut feelings" and there is something seriously scaring me about the possibility of him becoming President. Just look at the people he chooses to surround himself with - I wont name names, but if you watch ANY news, or radio, you'll know what I mean.

While I tend to steer more towards a Republican view, I also fit in within the middle a lot as well. I care about people, but think everyone needs to put in efforts and do their part in life. I don't have a McCain (or anyone) sign on our house/yard or a sticker on my car (WHY would someone do that to their paint job??? SERIOUSLY STUPID!!! If/when your "guy" doesn't win, you look so dumb!!!)

All this to say, NO ONE had better put anything 'Obama' anywhere near me, especially if they wanted it back!!! I would honestly be mad if I was your neighbor. Its one thing to talk politics if that is your relationship with him, but its another to disrespect his property. I get the idea of the joke and see where you're coming from comicly, but when someone is that strong in their beliefs, its not such a good idea to mess with them. You know??

10) Best reason of all, it pi$$ed you off.

Yeay.

I'd expect that type of "humor" from a 10 year old.

'nuff said.
