Lucky you. All I ever get are church recruiters who open up my front door* or someone trying to sell me some steaks in the parking lot.


*I thought I posted about this before but I can't find it.

Had some people follow me back into my apartment after I took out the trash. I closed my front door and they opened it up without knocking, both popped their stupid, smiling faces in. I assume they were church people.

I told them to get out immediately and I keep a leatherman right near the door for such reasons.

There is no way in this day and age that any company should be sending out marketers door to door... especially at that hour.

I would have done the same as you without the # thrown in 😆.

I hate when uninvited people knock on my door. Rarely do I answer and if I do .. it’s just to ask what they want through the door.. then tell them I’m not interested.

Knock on my door at 9pm... you better have pizza and tacos!

After a hiatus VistaVapors has brought the Rewards program back in a big way! The new version of the Rewards program has a scaled-down version of the points that we once offered. All customers that previously had points have all of their points back, but it might look like a different amount than you previously had. Not to worry, your points are still worth as much as they were before, we just had to scale back the quantity by 90%. So, if you had 10,000 points before, you now have 1,000 points, but don't worry we also lowered the amount you need to claim rewards. Here's an example of what you can use your rewards for, and how many points they cost:

Sad that this is the reality in which we live.

Sadly, where I live, 'IF' I answer the door, I make sure it's only going to open so far and I have an ugly surprise in my hidden hand behind my back.

Too many scumbags, and thugs these days.

My door never opens. If you don't leave after your first knock, cops are getting called and the leatherman is coming out.

Me and a friend of mine used to play a game where we would knock on the others door and whoever didn't answer the door with a gun lost.

One day I thought he was hiding from the peephole but it was just a really short chick selling magazines. It was awkward.

Should have just answered the door, politely.

Then greeted Tyrone, shake his hand and ask him what blood type he is and if anyone knows he's here.

Might have been a nice guy.

Your post about bringing the dead cat in the shower was better

Even I was chuckling reading that one. That's rare for me. Most of the really funny stuff that makes me laugh never leaves my head.

Aye, I read that post when it was fresh.

I can't say I would after that experience either, so don't blame ya for that in the slightest.

The latest I've ever had anyone at my door is 7pm. I made the mistake of being too kind to the moorman (I'm sure I spelled that wrong) girls and they constantly were texting me and showing up at my house to see if it's a good time to teach me how to be a functioning woman in their religion etc.... etc....

I think their views and ways of life are interesting so I did let them in a few times, but they stay for like 2 hours... I have a full time Job, and a 3 year old I can't have people in my house randomly from 7 to 9 I got things to clean and cook man..... Finally had to tell them I didn't think they should continue to come over that I felt I was wasting their time at that point since I had 0 intention of joining them.

They were cool about it.

Knocking at 9PM though?? Sketchy.... also had security cameras installed just in case the religious folks show up uninvited again.

For future reference it's spelled Moron

Yeah not cool TST. I've got a Tyrone type story for ya.

Check this out...

I ordered from Pizza Hut the other day.

My wife answered the door at about 7 pm.

We ate and started watching TV.

At 11 pm, he shows back up at the door knocking.

He says "i was just driving around delivering pizza and I just had this strange urge to come back and pray for you."

I said "what did you say to me?"

He nervously answered "yeah, I just had this urge to pray for you, it's just this overwhelming feeling I am getting, is there something you need to confess to me?"

I said "awe, that's nice" and shook his hand like a vice grip, then yanked him up into the light in the doorway and checked him for a gun.

No gun on him, fortunately. I pushed him back out and he asked if he could come in and pray for us.

I said " no, you can pray you make it off my property" or something like that.

I don't think he was expecting me to be here and wanted to get at my wife.

I didn't do anything after that, thought about calling the cops, before this pizza rapist strikes again.

It was ultra weird, and I don't know which one I am more uncomfortable with.

...A creep rapist, or an actual clairvoyant spreading prophecies.

Needless to say, we don't order anymore za's from there.

I only let Mormons in if they a have a pretty gal in tow.
And then I try to convert them to the Church of the Subgenius.

a reply to: TinySickTears

I still get people doorknocking me to sell stuff despite TWO visible signs on the door saying do not knock.

Grinds my gears.
