Weird scam attempt on my wife.

This is why I always open the door a little and allow my dog to continually bark and growl at them while they try to sell me something.

I love it when you're walking out to your car and they charge you . . . I nearly shot some asshole for popping up from my blindside in my driveway while I was getting out of my car . . . fuckin' jerkoff wanted to sell me "a magazine subscription" . . . after dark . . . from a minivan packed with dirtbags that had out of state plates. That was even worse than the door-to-door panhandling crackheads wanting to "do chores" so they could "buy medicine for a sick child." I wish I had dogs I could feed these people to. I need a tall fence or something. The scarecrow full of arrows isn't working.

Get one of those "No soliciting" signs. Rude people are known to comply with written instructions [hahhah-no]

Life in the city and the suburbs... Once in a while people give you plenty of opportunity to dislike them.

Too bad that sign doesn't include home repairs (roofing, siding, lawn maint., etc.)

I guess I am lucky in that those are the only things I ever get approached for.

I don't generally have a problem with solicitors ... but then my doorbell burned out 3 years ago and I've never bothered to fix it ... [ROFL1]

WTF? I hate being able to see the street from my house. I need a bigger property so they have to really work at coming to see me or the wife.

She should have replied that she has "black mold" inside the brass casings of her .40 Glock (or other "black mold" propelled projectile delivery device).

Black mold...
[panic]
I'm thinking you should obtain a firearm to protect your property/loved ones...
At least while that option is available....[obama]

Had an insurance claim on a pop-up trailer full of black mold. We couldn't even PAY someone to do an estimate on it.

I was told by my HOA rep that "black mold can't grow in Colorado".
