There was this old nasty trick people used to do round these parts of the UK to pedos, they'd squirt superglue into the door locks and then pop a firework through the letterbox.

Getting doxxed couldn't have happened to a better person. Wishing him the best of luck.

That's a very nicely mowed lawn. I wonder if he mows it himself.

I've been looking into the silly shit people make in the fireworks world. Not to make any, because me and things that go boom do not mix very well mind you, but because people get absurdly creative with their whiz-bangs.

Like look at this silly shit

I am having a hard time visualizing this... What does the glued lock contribute to the firework situation, or vice versa?

You can't exit through the door... but also there is a firework going off so seems like you would probably go in a different direction, maybe to a different room.

I've always liked the superglue idea because it could really fuck things up but the prankster is far away by the time its discovered. Setting off an explosive at the same time sort of diminishes that.

maybe I am missing something?

Extremely common for houses to burn down in this way.

I suppose americans might be less familiar with this phenomenon because you have mailboxes outside the house instead of as slots built into your doors? Here in the UK it is most common for doors to have a letter shaped postal slot on the door. This size:

I mean it seems like there's a strong chance it burns their house down depending on the type of firework tbqh. if it's just a firecracker probably not though. In that case the superglue still prevents them from pursuing you and just generally ruins the lock
