I feel like a f***ing idiot...

I was nearly to the end of the first page waiting for the trololol posts, I did a 'phew' near the end. Close call. Seriously? Cool story I guess.

.......Why do you have a dog in your attic? That makes absolutely no sense. Oh wait I see this is a troll thread. Bravo OP, you made me think there for a second XD

On the off chance this is legit. If you are dumb enough to fall for that then yeah you deserve to get your shit stolen XD

People wearing haz-mat suits came to my door, and told me to wait outside because they had to tear-gas out the stray dog in my attic. I have an dog in my attic so I believed them. 30 minutes later they walked out with "bags of animal carcasses," which I later find out to be my ps3, wii, dvd player, and a bunch of jewelry. Didn't think that robberies could be so planned, but now my parents are mad at me. Now I can only afford a 360 which really annoys me.

Next time, ask for identification. Also, did you know that ANYBODY can buy a hazmat suit? Same thing with lab coats! You have no idea how many peoples lives I've ruined by telling them they could trust my advice because I was a scientist/doctor.

I don't know if this is real or not, but I can't stop laughing at the thought!

BAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHA OH GOD!! Priceless.

I apologize if this really happened,but seriously WTF

 

[sgt. soap mctavish]

This is possibly the most improbable sounding encounter i have ever heard in my life. Yet I will give the robbers this, they REALLY managed to think out the box.

 

[Dethenger]

I'd hesitate to call that theft. They worked hard for that shit. How convincingly must they have presented themselves for you to just let them in? It'd have to be more natural than a flat poker face. And the costumes? Shit, that would cost way more than a ski mask and a knife. That was no robbery. That was a heist.

...the lot of you know this is false and the OP is a troll, right?

The people continue to believe it. I'm quite incredulous about this whole scenario.

In other words this is in order. [http://www.gifsoup.com/view/1028266/successful-troll-o.gif]

But... I don't get it. Is it really trolling when people are being very respectful and considerate of each other? It sounds more like a "I switched the coke for PEPSI, lol" friendly teasing.

Isn't the point of trolling to whip up a ruckus, or is this a new breed of much less offensive trolls?
I mean, I honestly don't mind it so much; if they're getting just as many kicks from posting this as being inflammatory jerk, this is an improvement for everyone.

 

[krazykidd]

Tear gas a dog... I don't know about this. Who would believe someone would just go and kill a stray dog? Take it to the pound maybe but killing seems a bit too far. Thinking from the robbers point of view I wouldn't have thought you would have believed it.

Really? Out of everything , THAT is what seems odd to you?

OT : i don't know if this really happened , but i sure hope so! It will make a great drinking story .

SNIP

I'll give you that. Maybe the Escapist has finally produced its own mutant strand of troll: the story troll.

 

[lacktheknack]

It's true, people will fall for anything. (I'm talking about the forum users, not the OP.)

 

[Doneeee]

Shit that's just not cool. Though to be honest you'd have to be just a little thick to not question whether or not they were a real... real squad of whoever the heck gasses dogs to get them out of your house. I mean firstly you probably would have heard the dog and secondly animal safety laws would not allow this. If there was someone coming to get an animal from your house they'd have badges and a restrainer. But there is nothing you can do now so I'll just say that sucks man. :/
