(no subject)
Okay, so I've had a wonderful "weekend" so far, finally fully cleaned my kitchen/living room. Been relaxing and puzzling and stuff..
And then this had to happen. I'm still sitting here going "what the flying fuck?!"
So I was sitting at my computer and I started to hear random clinking and clammering noises from the backyard. Noises that are unusual. Usually the only noises I hear are the little girl and her mother next door playing outside (cuuuute!) so I just peeked outside to see what was going on. Thankfully I did, because I would not have had a grill otherwise.
What I saw severely pissed me off: A guy with wire cutters pulling this little red charcoal grill that had been back there for awhile. I looked to the side to find...my grill was gone with the chain that it was attached to just dangling there. I panicked, not knowing what to do. Got dressed really quickly, thinking multiple reasons why he would just be taking my grill. Maybe he's a grass cutter and was just moving them to the side of the building where I couldn't see? Well I needed to throw out some cat litter, so I used that as an excuse to go out and investigate. I went outside and didn't find my grill anywhere. As I was walking back inside, I happened to look, by chance, in the yard a couple apartments down from me. Oh...look, there's my grill.
I went over to the guy and was like "What are you doing with my grill?!?" Apparently, as he claimed, one of the residents in my building said that both the grills were abandoned and that my landlord was just going to throw them out soon anyways. Wait...excuse me? I know I don't use my grill that often but..abandoned?? And even then...what gives you the right to go over there and just take them without asking all the residents? I had a chain on the grill, linked to the railing leading to the basement, but the lock was rusted so it wasn't closed all the way. Even then...IT WAS FUCKING CHAINED UP YOU JACKASS!!! I bitched him out like crazy, basically going along the lines of "Even if Dean was going to throw them out, why would you take a grill that is not yours that is chained up?!" and he was like "dude, you don't have to be so rude and nasty" ....umm..yes I do. You are stealing my grill in front of my eyes!!!
So I dragged it back to my backyard, and he tried to help me. I just looked at him and went "Umm..I can do it. It's my grill, after all." and then I realized my tank was gone! I turned around and asked him about it. "What, you mean the empty tank?" um...it's not empty. "Yes it is!" Even if it were, I can still trade it in for a much cheaper price (roughly half the price of buying a brand new tank). He tried carrying it back for me, as if I was all frail and weak. Dude, I lift 50 pound boxes daily at work, my gas tank is nothing compared to that.
Ugh. Just so pissed. I tried calling my landlord but apparently he was busy and didn't pick up (don't blame him really, he owns the surgical supply store right down the street, so he was probably doing something important there). I'm going to try in a short while and be like "What the fuck??"
I still just cannot believe it! Who does that kind of shit?
