Moral dilemma
This morning I took delivery of a small bicycle, clearly destined as a Christmas present for the shouty kids next door.The box is a bit like this one. Each morning for the entirety of the last three months the period from 6.45 - 8.00 has been littered with noise, swearing, shouting, slammed doors and chaos in a consistent unfolding daily morning drama taking place next door.
I slightly resent this. I mean I am always awake anyway but it's not nice, and just last week they filled my bin up too, about 12 days ahead of the collection. I don't mind that two or three days before but not twelve days!
Anyhow my dilemma - post the little note to say I have it (it is a note that does not reveal what it is, in case the kids read it), or sell the bike and buy wine as a recompense to the daily interruption and bin-space theft?

You should ride it up and down the street in a dirty santa outfit (see Trading places) with a bottle of whiskey, shouting at the kids, that it would of been there's if they weren’t such little fuckers!
Top plan! I have a bottle of Jim Beam. Would that do?
No, I have a bottle of Jim Beam at your house...
Yeah that'd do.
:) Smart!
yeah ebay it...well I suppose it isnt the right and good thing to do and your conscience would get you...
I did read another blogger does this regularly, she makes sure she puts another name instead of her signature and would deny it all..nuff said...
very annoying though I sympathise.
Sell it.
Buy wine.
Give to your brother.
A 2000 Ch. Chasse-Spleen, please.
Yes.
Wine made with spleen? Yeeuch!
I say sell it... deny all knowledge! Why they getting a bike anyway - doesnt sound like they've been very good children (Santa must be getting soft in his old age!)
Chop it up into 12 individual pieces and post it back to them 1 day at a time ... Who needs a partridge in a pear tree anyway ...
I like Walsh's suggestion very much
BUT!
If you want to be really devilish...
open the box and remove the pedals.
SCARGOSUN! You're a baaaaad girl! You had better do something extra nice to balance this evil (but great!) thought out, otherwise Santa will scoot right over your State!
