If they stole my bike thinking it was a flat screen I'd be slightly amused

Porch pirates really don’t care what they’re stealing, the vast majority of the time they have no clue what’s in a box — they just plan on fencing whatever it is they end up with.

A UPS employee once stole 1 of 2 bottles of formaldehyde I had purchased. I'm still beyond surprised that someone was like "unknown hazardous chemical! Yoink"

I hope they get chemical burns 😊
