MouseTrap

Okay, one of the older ones touched on at Picking Up Strangers was the MouseTrap.

Having boarded the bus and picked my seat, gotten all my stuff ready, and planned on just watching the ride through the huge mirror 3 rows up, I opened the laptop I had in my backpack and just started playing a game (Windows XP with the built in pinball game, sound off) when some moron reaches into the bag.

I look over. "You don't want to do that. You see, I'm evil in nature, and that backpack is full of traps." Not a lie. I'm wild at heart.

He reaches in and grabs what must have felt like an MP3 player at first.

SNAP!

The traps start snapping closed, pinching his hand.

He got off at the next stop. Thief took my mouse traps!

  1. That's a good one. Maybe if more people invested in mouse traps, more crooks would get caught!! Good job!

    Protecting the stuff you care about most: Priceless.
