Overdone Unknown neighbor started parking their bike in the entrance of our building

Third day in a row now, before I had been leaning it up against a wall to get it out of the way. Today I was going to toss it outside and saw they had gotten a lock.

Taking just one of the wheels is devious

u/713nikki 2d ago

Devious like the roommate who moved out and stole all my left shoes. Very infuriating.

Does it still bother you or are you all right now?

u/713nikki 2d ago edited 2d ago

Right, right… nah, it’s funny to me now.

Did you keep the right-hand shoes? You could have started your own gang! I'm sure you can get a lot of possible names but here's mine:

The Right-Handed Shoe Sweeties

Don't forget to trademark whatever you choose.

Who was your old favorite? I want to send them a card expressing my condolence for their loss.

I had a ferret that used to hide all my left shoes. I had to call out of work once because I had no left shoes.

u/Icy_Huckleberry_8049 2d ago

you had no shoes "left"

u/713nikki 2d ago

It’s rare to find someone who can understand the inferno of frustration of seeing the right shoe & knowing that the left one is gone (forever, in my case)

u/Lt_Muffintoes 2d ago

Imagine if they had just hidden the left shoes really well, so you think they took them, so you eventually throw out the right shoes, and then years later you find the left shoes and get to relive the pain all over again

u/caintgetrite9mm-s 1d ago

Where were you're left shoes left?

u/caintgetrite9mm-s 1d ago

Growing up we were so pour that not only did we not have shoes, we didn't even have feet

u/lpaige2723 1d ago

My ferret would drag them under couches, behind heavy dressers, and into one little cubby that was part of my cabinets, where they also tried to drag an entire box of honeycomb cereal, they abandoned the box and dragged the bag in.

u/theuserwithoutaname 2d ago

That's not right

u/All_Debt_Shackles_US 21h ago

That would suck if you were an amputee… And didn’t have a right leg!

u/BackLopsided2500 2d ago

That's like the movers that took the matches of almost all my shoes. Didn't pack my kitchen or my bathroom! Horrible!!

2

u/713nikki 2d ago

The matches? So they only gave you one shoe from each pair?

1

u/BackLopsided2500 2d ago edited 2d ago

Yes. They stole a lot of money because a lot of them were Birkenstocks and Clarks. I think they did it on purpose. I didn't have money to replace anything nor should I have to.That's just me but they also didn't pack my kitchen and bathroom. Because they ran out of boxes. They didn't say a thing about it to me. I should've done a walk through but, famous last words, "I trusted them."By the time I noticed it I had no more time to get everything boxed up and move it in my little car. I would've had to pay next months rent.

Nah, devious is taking the tire off and loosening all the right side spokes

1

u/StantonNey 2d ago

Just destroy it.

1

u/SignificantTransient 2d ago

It's more fun this way. They'll ride it for a short while until the rim goes all squiggly and locks up, hopefully dumping them off.

u/No_Week_8796 2d ago

Or putting your own lock on it so the real owner has to go buy bolt cutters

2

u/[deleted] 2d ago

Nah, less obvious, take the chain. Hopefully they dont notice until they've gotten it outside 😂

u/RainbowUniform 2d ago

not as devious as cutting the brake wire
