killing people for stealing signs seems a bit out of proportion to the crime :P

like I said, electrify it. You can even set up a streaming cam. Tazed pothead thieves live. It'd be an Internet hit!

See!  This is what I've been telling you people!

You've been telling us to steal Malthus' parents' sign?

You're killing them because they're fucking potheads, not because they're theives.  Duh.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

They're mainly harmless, a few stolen signs aside. Besides, they keep the snack food industry alive :D

High overlap.

Heh not a bad plan ... I guess the only question is - voltage. Fatal or non?  :menace:

Seem proportional to me, though the constant of proportionality is a tad high.

Can't you just paint the number on the curb? Kinda hard for potheads to steal that.

Not if the potheads are on PCP as well.

What if pot were legalized only in brownie-form?  :P

My elderly parents have a cabin in the woods north of Barrie, Ontario. Apparently, even in such a rural spot, you are obliged to hang out a street number on a government-issued sign. The only problem is that the sign keeps getting stolen. Their neighbours' signs aren't stolen -only theirs. Repeatedly. The government is now charging them a replacement fee.

They had no clue as to why ... as it turns out, their number is "420". Which is allegedly some sort of stoner code-number. No doubt the missing signs are decorating some asshole stoner's room.  :mad:

I thought you were a pot head in your youth.  Are you sure that you aren't getting all fucked up and stealing it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
