Constantly see people online talk about "when the robber comes thru my door" or whatever, and some of it is memes, but a lot of it is just people legit discussing what the "best weapon" to fight robbers breaking into your house at night would be - Giving it so much thought as if it is a legitimate concern. So is it? Does it happen a lot?

I woke up from a nap to someone rooting through my shit in the living room in the middle of the day.

The only time I've had someone do something like that it was my landlord, fucker was trying to show off my apartment while I was still living there

Should have started blasting, free kill on a landlord and you missed it smh (this is a joke for whoever screenshots this)

I was on the other end of this once. I was being shown an apartment and the tenant was clearly not expecting it (or just didn’t give a fuck, which I respect). I just cut it short and left because there were several other red flags anyway
