Finding oneself locked into one's own guest bedroom is not an event one prepares for ( Read more... )

... whoa.

XD You're awesome. WITH A TEASPOON! Nothing can hold you. X333

Secret ninja skills for the win! ...no actually, it's from being a theater tech major and having had 4 years of learning to look at *everything* in terms of "what unexpected problem can I solve with that object" (I'll spare you the stories of cooking Welsh-rarebit over an aluminum hubcap perched on two sawhorses over a blowtorch in the evenings). XD

......wut?! Omg, that blows! D:

Maybe one day it'll be epic lulz, but for now it's a lesson I suppose. Screwdrivers in every room? Yes, plz. o.O

To be fair, breaking out of a room with a teaspoon is epic win. XD

Heh. Yeah, I realized the comedy potential in the story about 5 minutes after I got out, once my heart stopped galloping around...

Wow. That's… intriguing. I've got to say, I've never done that to myself. Then again, all of my doors only lock from the inside, and they're those stupid push locks, so you can unlock one from the outside with a toothpick. *rolls eyes* Yeah, serious security there.

(Though, come to think of it, if my doorknob ever actually broke, I'd probably still be okay because the doors won't stay shut without a knob.)

That sounds like an interesting way to spend the afternoon. ;) Glad you got out okay though.

I *wish* it had been the afternoon -- I would still have been dressed at that point and could've gone out the window wearing jeans and shoes! XD

You > MacGyver

Escape with a tea spoon. That is just epic.

chibirisuchan July 25 2009, 15:10:05 UTC

heh - thanks! I swear it's because of the theater tech major. I can tell some pretty astonishing stories about cooking over hubcaps, burning Kool-aid, hundreds of unauthorized uses for electrical tape, clothing held together with staples, and so forth...

*well-intentioned snickering*

The easiest way to get into my house if I've forgotten the key is to climb through the dog door into the back area and pick the lock on the connecting door to my bedroom with...well, whatever is available, rarely anything useful. Once, this was a saw blade.

Me: I forgot my keys again.
Mom: Uh-huh.
Me: But it was okay, I got through my door easily enough.
Mom: Mmm.
Me: With a saw blade.
Mom: WHAT?!
Me: You know, one of those fiddly little thin ones that you attach to a handle and can saw a curve?
Mom: Oh! Okay.

chibirisuchan July 25 2009, 15:10:51 UTC

pfffft heee! I'm glad you didn't cut yourself on the saw blade, though I'd be a bit worried about the burglary potential if it was that easy to get in without a key...

an_kayoh July 25 2009, 20:15:20 UTC

Well, the major sticking point would be the dog door. I'm fairly sure I could take out any burglar that could fit through it.

azhwi July 26 2009, 01:26:52 UTC

That and well - if it was a LARGE dog door - would a burglar really want to go in through that door to knock noses with an equally large sized Snoopy?
