You're a thief...a common thief....

[Duff McCartney]

What the fuck? So anyway...I was here in my room watching tv and my mom got home. She called me to the living room and I was like "What?" She says look what somebody stole...I was expecting the worse. So we walked out to the front yard and I was like what?

She points to a little patch of dirt next to our walkway to the door. I saw that we had a big plant that was Elephant ear. I just stood there baffled...what kinda world are we coming to that somebody would dig up and steal a plant? A plant that's not even that great....I mean maybe if they stole a potted one they could sell it but one that's already dug up and shit?

If you don't know what Elephant ear looks like here is a pic....

Idiots.

[midgetonadonkey]

Shit you can take that back to your yard and plant the motherfucker. I'd steal a plant, not an Elephant Ear but something badass like a Crape Myrtle or some shit like that.

[Suns Fan]

Does anyone on your block work at the zoo?

an elephant ear might not mean much to you guys, but tell that to the Elephant. :lmao

[MannyIsGod]

[Larry Dallas]

[mouse]

I would post pictures on all the telephone poles in your area, Did it have any unusual markings? I would check E bay tonight also, I at one time smoked a banana plant once but never an Elephant ear plant, You live near any stoners?

[midgetonadonkey]

What kind of fucking moron smokes a banana plant? I only smoke shit that has been proven to give a high.

[Summers]

Whenever my grandmother takes flowers to my grandfather's grave, somebody takes them. That's fucked up, stealing from the dead! :flipoff

[Felipe]

[Kourtnie]

[King]

Someone stole all the plants off my girlfriends balcony the other night, too.

[Michael Jackson]

a thief of justice, i can understand.


a thief of plant, not so much

Do you remember when your mother called me a thief for stealing your virginity?

[3rdCoast]

I am slightly disturbed by the Michael Jackson posts.

I feel violated just reading them.

???? You know names of plants?

[Useruser666]

Jim wants his money or else. Next time say bye bye to that boxwood! :lol

[SpursWoman]

I wish someone would come dig up and haul off all of the dead shit in my yard.

[cmc$purs]

some a-hole took my hose a couple of weeks ago :cuss

i got the last laugh that hose was a piece it had a pinhole that would spray you in the ass :lol

F-ING THIEF :makemyday

[SWC Bonfire]

I have plenty of mesquites that they could come dig up. Help yourselves. :lol

[midgetonadonkey]

Yeah dude, plants are sweet. Nothing wrong with being knowledgeable about many different things.

Idiots.

Guido has found your house I see.

For $800, you will get you plant back.

PS. Do you know how hard it is putting 20 tiny blindfolds on that thing?

:)

[Jimcs50]

Jim wants his money or else. Next time say bye bye to that boxwood! :lol

LOL great minds think alike.

:lol

[Shelly]

Cosmic Cowboy has an extensive knowledge of plants. If you saw him, I don't think you'd be questioning that knowledge at all! :lol

:lol @ Guido

[bigzak25]

sorry for your loss.

[AlamoSpursFan]

What would really rule is if Duff's mom starts getting pictures of her Elephant Ear at the beach, in Vegas, in Paris, etc...

:lol

[Jekka]

You act like they couldn't just dig up a plant and put it in a pot themselves ...

[samikeyp]

Whenever my grandmother takes flowers to my grandfather's grave, somebody takes them. That's fucked up, stealing from the dead!

that is messed up.

Watch out Duff....first it was your plant...your pink flamingo will be next! :lol

[Duff McCartney]

Well potted plants are more expensive...those are things that do get stolen. But plants that are already like in the ground I never heard of anybody stealing.

I know my mom has had potted plants stolen before when we lived in a different neighborhood.

They're more expensive because they're in a pot. Therefore, if you already have a pot, and steal a plant, you can sell it for the price of a potted plant.

[AlamoSpursFan]

Elephant Ears are pretty inexpensive plants though...I can't imagine there'd be great black market for hot ones.

:lol

[bigzak25]

this thief is really not that common after all.

[MannyIsGod]

:lmao

I was typing up the "You're a theif with Jims money" reply last night when I got distracted and forgot about it. Damnit!


Anyhow, once someone stole Jekka's welcome mat.

However, the most fucked up thing I've ever had stole was my passenger side view mirror on my Alero. I was parked at a store, went in, came out, 10 minutes max. When I came out, it was GONE.

[Shelly]

I guess they thought they were welcome to take it!

[MannyIsGod]

It said "Go Away!" on it. It was a super cool mat and one day, it was gone!

[Jimcs50]

It said "Go Away!" on it. It was a super cool mat and one day, it was gone!

I think the thieves took umbrage to that message and said "fine, I will go away and take this with me"

:)

[Kori Ellis]

Someone stole our dartboard out of our garage when we lived at other house in Encino Park.

People are crazy.

I think they probably knocked it off with their car. If an Alero ain't worth shit, then how much could an Alero mirror be worth?

[Extra Stout]

The Vietnamese people in my neighborhood used to do that all the time with the landscaping plants at newly-built homes. There'd be a house with a conspicuous hole in the ground where a plumbago was supposed to be, and next door there'd be some 70-year-old lady wearing a cone hat planting her new plumbago: "No, no! I buy! Home Depot!"

The superintendents never figured it was worth the headache to do anything about it, so they'd go get another $20 plant.

The Vietnamese also built themselves nice brick mailboxes with the bricks they'd steal from the homesites.

[sa_butta]

[SWC Bonfire]

:lol

No joke. You'd think they would set their sights a littler higher, like a columbine or esparanza bush.

To date I don't know if a pyracanthia has ever been stolen. You might look into replacing it with one if it gets sunlight in that area. :lol

I dunno, I had one removed from a 1985 SkyHawk that wasn't worth a shit and it was $100 to replace....or $20 at Pick & Pull. :fro


The one on my current car to replace was $150....

[Jekka]

No joke. You'd think they would set their sights a littler higher, like a columbine or esparanza bush.

The UK apparently has a pretty big problem with the stolen orchid trade - but some of those plants go for thousands of dollars. No one cares about Elephant Ear bushes.

[SpursWoman]

You know....there are a lot of very nicely landscaped yards in my neighborhood, and it never even dawned on me to help myself.

I mean damn, they just leave the damn things out there all night...... :devil :lol

[Fat Bones]

Maybe y'all were not watering it and somebody felt it needed to be rescued.

Plant intervention by the PPS...plant protection services.

or maybe some Polynesian vegans ate it.

Look out for Hawaiians.

[Shelly]

I snaked some zinnia seeds from our community pool!

[MannyIsGod]

They didn't knock it off. There were no sratch marks anywhere and the mirror was gone. The motor and the mount were still there, but the actual glass was GONE. It wasn't broken on the floor. Weird shit man.

I suppose they could hav just cleaned it up, but that thing was EXPENSIVE as all hell so I always assumed it was stolen.

[bigzak25]

manny, you were supposed to pay if forward and steal one off another alero.


kinda like those bastards that steal the tailgates off of trucks. :lol

I think it was a hobo...

[Duff McCartney]

Well I looked and right next to where the old one was there is another smaller one. Like alot smaller..well at least it's alot better than not having one.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Just xeriscape your yard and plant cactus. They're a lot harder to steal, and if you plant the right ones you can use them to get high like the indians used to.
