The way I see it you have two choices.... Take the high road and maybe even invite this guy over for dinner. In the middle of dinner confront him and tell him he is always welcome to your food, if it is eaten in your house. Simple rule, and you may be able to keep a long time friend.

Option 2 - Cut all ties. This guy is a security risk and if he is stealing shit out of your fridge then imagine what will happen if he knows about your grow.

I would lean tword option 2.


That's the best idea if this guy mean ''friend'' to you...and only you can know this.
I know people steal food when they're hungry and probably you're not the only one this guy steal from,try to understand before take a decision man.Things may be different from what you're thinking :)

Good luck :wave:

The first thing to do is invite him back! Make up a batch of something tainted with EXLAX or RAID.The additives are basically up to the chef.I worked out on a forklift in a lumber yard as a kid.One summer we were going through a weeklong heatwave 100+ degrees and sticky.Some prick was nabbing my gatorade out of the fridge everyday.Well on the 3rd day I found out whe it was.It seems insect pesticides and the human body dont mix well.That was the last time my shit was robbed.I hate sleazy F'rrs

Your not the only one this has happened to

Just don't understand people...............................

I had someone steel a fish out of my aquarium once. I later found out she had a bag of water , and a net, in her purse. ....Premeditated....I still can't beleive that happened.


Set a trap of some sort for the thief. (please don't poison him)

What are you going to tell the cops when the guy dies from insect spray in the gatorade?
He was drinking my gatorade so I had to kill him.
I'm sure you will be let go with only a slap on the wrist, not.

Exlax, fine
Poison, NO


Since he's your friend, invite him over for dinner, let the wife get out the big pot and start the water boiling, then "make" the discovery that the lobsters are gone.
Tell him WTF, we were going to have a fancy lobster dinner but they're gone, I don't understand.
If he's really a friend he will feel pretty low about having stolen the lobsters you were going to cook him for dinner.

Side note, are you absolutely sure that this guy took them?
Maybe the wife went on a binge and ate them both herself and then felt guilty and denied knowing where they were.
Woman can get really screwed up when it comes to food, take it from me, my ex wife is bulimic, I could tell you food stories you would never believe about her.

Burp.....Dam that lobster was tasty......
Is it not considered fishing if I catch my food in somebody's freezer. My bad.
 
In my opinion, if you keep the company of people who would steal two lobsters in an elaborate water drinking scam for the ages, you should probably make some major changes in your life.

I'm talking drop the old lady, go to college, read some books, and completely change the scenery.

Call me a snob.

maybe iced water goes well with frozen lobsters.. take care of what people you keep around you, bro.
 
This should be a sticky IMO. Upon further thought this is my favorite thread of all time. I guess cuz I grew up poor and can envision the type of mofo's who would steal a lobster.

(hits rock pipe) " aight man, I know this mark, right? And he's got these lobsters mannnn. They just sittin there mannn, beggin' to be took. I got this plan with my water yo, cuz my brain just work like dat. Imma get that mark's lobster son. Baleet dat."

Honestly I was considering calling the cops... just for the fun factor they would have at the station. "Um, yes, I'd like to report two missing lobsters, 3 marinated chickens, and a steak. I think I know who did it."

Although he has been a friend for 20+ years I never said he was a "good" friend. Just had enough history I figured I could trust him. WOOPS.

Still not gonna try to kill him over some lobsters and chickens and steak.

I don't think he touched my greeen, but now who knows. There was a month a while back that I seemed to run through my stash extra fast.

I do know he hates pork. Our plan, should he ever come back over, is to wrap pork fat and bacon inside the butcher paper for the next set of lobster tails.

Should be a pleasant surprise when he gets home.

WOW.....what kind of people are you hanging out with? Hungry ones? Either your friend has clepto or you are not picking very good friends. There is not even the slightest chance on of my labeled friends would steal anything from me let alone some food, that to me sounds more like a scrubby bum move, get better friends.

I wouldn't be so quick to lay the blame on your friend. Do you rent? Where I live there was a landlord that was going in his houses he rented when the tennants weren't home. He'd only take a couple things. Normally food and bottles of alcohol. Eventually one of the renters got a camera and caught the pig....

You said your girl also said she found stuff missing? Spend a couple hundred and catch them. If it is the LL that's a lot of months of free rent, lol.....

I don't let many people in my home. I can count the number on one hand. All but one of those individuals get locked on the patio (while smoking a cig) if I have to leave them unattended.

youve got just a few people who come by your home...but they cant be unattended so you lock them in a patio ??

we have different customs where im from !!
