Stealing a Stolen Post - What Would You Do

Mofongo · July 2010

My husband and I had an incident a few months ago. Our house alarm went off at 4am, scared the shiit out of us both. I now know I am a total puss, I grabbed the puppy, the phone and hid in the bathtub. The alarm company called and told me which window it was. My H was brave enough to check it out, it turned out that one of the wires was rotting on a 2nd floor window - did this really have to come to light at 4am?? Meanwhile, I had decided to not have the police come out, but instead called my dad, who lives about a mile away. He came over rushing over, not sure what I thought he was going to do, anyway, I have since put a bat under the bed and pepper spray in the nightstand. I know it sounds silly, but I just felt so empty handed and helpless!! Oh, and my dog is a Pug, so he would probably just like and intruder to death...

ummm, what does "go clear the house" mean?

Does that mean that instead of sitting there with a gun in case someone enters their room with intent to do bodily harm that he goes on a shoot-em-up instead?

I be this person sucks to be friends with. They probably have a bunker stocked up for the apocalypse.

The first thing I do when I enter a room, ANY room is figure out my escape route if something would happen. I like to be prepared for the worst situation possible.

I don't look for escape routes. Instead, I check for possible entry points for zombies and velociraptors. They will never sneak up on me.

I am a total survival scenario maker.

I also take a page from the mafia and hate to sit with my back to the door of anything.

huh. I scope out snacks and seating.

I look for the nearest restroom. Don't want to tinkle myself.

I usually look for food.

Do you think the "clear the house" couple does practice runs? I feel like they do, probably while wearing commando outfits.

I've done this in hotels ever since I saw a today show segment about how no one knows where the hell to go when there is a hotel fire. screw you Matt Lauer.

do you live in a box? You've never seen a gun IRL? Have you ever been pulled over? I'm pretty sure the copper was packing heat.
