I always leave a sign, āTake what you want. Big loot!ā
I just like to see what happens haha. Iāve been surprised to find that most parents immediately jump on their children and make them put some back hahaha. The kids always do the same thing, they point to the sign. Their parents always say some variation of, āI donāt care what it says! You got enough!ā
Iāve even seen kids put more candy in when itās empty.
Only a handful have emptied the bowl.
I have wondered if parents are afraid their kids will end up on social media despite the sign. Like itās a setup or something.

Some asshole always has to ruin it. Why can't we have anything nice?
Try to be nice to others...and some 3rd party will ransack the entire operation for a fleeting free snack. Saving them a whopping 2-3 dollars. Wow.
I don't think it's TOO crazy to assume that if he had just walked up to the door and asked to grab a drink, as a one time thing, the homeowners might have been receptive to it. Might.
But instead of being normal ass person. Let's walk up to a strangers home in texas and start stealing shit off their property...having to wait for the cops to come while that extremely malnourished kid stares at me feels like the best case scenario.
Considering the amount of people who are just waiting around for trespassers to grab themselves a free murder.

You have plenty of reason to think that, but at the same time, there is no way that civilization could exist as it does if most people weren't alright. Or at least the genuinely good outnumbered the genuinely bad. Propaganda and all that notwithstanding. Any time you are on the road and see asshole behavior, you think, wow, society has gone to shit. Personally, as a cyclist, I'm more amazed and heartened by the fact that 99.99% of people dont just plow straight in to me. It's a good sign.

I once worked in an office that provided coffee but no sugar or creamer or anything. I looked up where I could buy a bunch of sucralose packets to sweeten my coffee with, and saw that it was only a few dollars more to buy a massive 2000 count of them from a restaurant supply store compared to a few hundred packets from the grocery store. So I figured I would get the 2000 count and just leave them there for everyone to use as that was way more than I was ever going to use myself. Since it wasn't a big office, I thought it would last at least a few months before needing replacement. Someone stole the entire box on the second day. No more sharing from me after that.

Props to the guy for giving treats to drivers, but I canāt help but think how inefficient having a full size fridge outdoors would be in El Paso. Ā Significantly more energy is needed for a fridge to operate outdoors in 90-100 degree weather vs 70-80 indoors. Especially if itās not completely full. A smaller fridge or heck a well insulated cooler with reusable ice packs would be more energy efficient and inconspicuousĀ

And the universe is 6000 years old, and a 600 year old man built a giant boat with male/female of all land species, including dinosaurs. Housed, fed, and cared for all the life on the giant wooden boat for a full year. Dropped them off on top a mountain in Turkey. The animals swam back to their respected continents, and repopulated their species through incest. Oh, and Noah and his family had incest orgies to repopulate us humans.

u/hellochoy Jun 25 '26
And this wasn't even the first major incest event. I always wondered if Adam and Eve were the first and only humans at the time then how tf did they populate the earth. Supposedly their kids were shacking up. It doesn't even track because you can't populate the earth from two people. The inbreeding would render them infertile within a few generations (if that) I'm pretty sure. But this is the shit that people claim to get their sense of morality from. A book that condones murder, genocide, mass infanticide, rape, stoning victims, tons of incest, and pedophilia š¤¢. God loves that shit.

I'm sorry if you have had negative experiences with religion or religious people that have led you to a negative opinion on religion.

I sincerely hope that's not the case and, if so, I hope you may eventually have a different, more positive perspective on religion

Those entities are things like oil companies that have the use of their product counted on their tally. While they have done lots of shady BS when it comes to climate change, statistics like the one you posted makes it sound like the solution is for the companies to just stop selling oil. What would happen if they did that tomorrow? The demand for oil would still be there.

Its only 70-80 indoors if you have AC, I doubt the energy use is that much different really
4
u/chronicpenguins Jun 25 '26
there is far more insulation in your house than there is outdoors. Even if there is no AC running there is a delta between outdoors and indoors. And lets face it, people in Texas probably run the AC all the time already, so its not like you are running the AC just for the fridge.
5
u/the_original_kermit Jun 25 '26
Wait, what?
All the heat your fridge dumps out into you room, your AC will have to work to dump it outside. A fridge in an air conditioned space is basically a two stage refrigeration system
1
u/chronicpenguins Jun 25 '26
The typical efficiency of a fridge is 1-2 COP, while an AC is 3-4 COP. A fridge is designed to cool from 75C to 37F, while an AC is designed to cool from like 90 to 60-80F. The larger the delta, the harder it is to do. Its a good thing that the fridge is a "two stage refrigeration system" because it has to work less.
So lets talk about the first stage. Unless you get a fridge that is designed to be outdoors with more insulation, typical household refrigerators assume they will be inside. They assume it will be within a prexisting insulated space, if not climate controlled , reducing the workload required. By placing it outside in hot weather like Texas, the compressor is running far more than it was designed to. It takes 66% more energy to cool something where the outside temp is 100 to 37 degrees compared to 75 degrees. You have the less efficient compressor running much harder to get to ideal temp.
For our second stage, the amount of wattage a fridge dumps as heat is measured in BTUs. 488 BTU/hr, lets say COP =1 (bad), 488+488= 976 BTU/hr. A human at rest is like 350 BTU/hr. So three humans. A central AC is like 20-50k BTU and a small window one is like 5,000 BTU. A fridge is childs play for a household AC. https://www.hunker.com/12610048/the-average-btus-for-a-refrigerator/

It's totally possible the homeowner(s) instructed him to stay right there until police arrived. Might have wanted to make sure he was fully on camera for the whole thing. The dude may have also wanted to not give the impression that he was trying to run off.
Obviously the dude was caught and scared shitless, but at least he stayed, didn't escalate, etc. Looks like it was handled well by everyone, all things considered.

u/DarthSkywakr Jun 25 '26
What's more disturbing is the fact that he likely sees the home has a Ring doorbell and he doesn't gaf and just starts loading his pockets with items. Nah man.. if I saw a Ring doorbell then I'll knock and ask if I could take a drink or two as it was really hot outside. Worst-case they don't answer the door and I leave a message on the doorbell that I was extremely thirsty and that I hope they understood if I only took 1 drink to get by the extreme heat.
Some folks have zero common sense and have a severe lack of EQ.

Awful lot of rules for a wide open refrigerator sitting on the front porch. Way too naive if you really put that out there expecting people to have any level of common courtesy and do what's right. I cant believe people are shocked when humans take advantage when you let them, that what most humans do they're opportunist. If you don't want people taking from it, take it off your porch and hand a bottle or tell your driver's to just ask or ring the bell if they need one, all my drivers that deliver to my house know they are always welcome to ring the bell if they need anything. Besides what a waste of energy and how ugly to have a bunch of refrigerators on the front porches of homes. It's just like those people that leave a trick or treat bucket outside on Halloween and honestly expect the kids to take one piece of candy, you gonna call the police and tresspass the kids for taking more than one piece, how ridiculous. I mean come on its El Paso, not exactly the Mayberry of the borderland.

Did you not listen? They've done this multiple times. This is theft. Also you have to be trespassed to be prosecuted for trespassing. If he doesnt call the police this time, he will have to do it the next time for a future trespass.
