so someone is in your house

['Aredor]

I'd assume it was one of my roommates. If for any reason I was sure that it was an intruder, I guess I'd probably yell for my roommates to come out. Once he's confronted with four to five mid-twenties, he'll probably bail. Good thing we have quite a decent gun control over here.

your room mates are out your home alone

Yeah, just saw that and edited accordingly. My first thoughts would nevertheless be: "Ah, so one of the guys is back early" and then if it turns out it's a stranger "Ah, so one of the guys gave their key to a friend or relative to crash here while they're gone"

so what happens if he pulls a katana out

so what happens if he pulls a katana out

Because like..everyone prowls around at night with a damn katana o.o

As for the question. Pretty simple. I take my gun, crawl out of bed, shoot the stranger, and go back to sleep happy, knowing that at morning i won't have to get up to feed my dog and cats. Pure profit.

 

[fgdfgdgd]

Grab my K-Bar and MAG light then go to investiagte...what? doesn't everyone do that? oh, wait, paranoia, that's right.

 

[ottenni]

Offer them a drink. Perhaps have some engaging conversation with them.

That or i could go spastic and try to kill them.

 

[etherlance]

Well you see I would be working out when this scenario of yours plays out.......

And I have to say I'd do what any real man would do in your situation.....

 

[Betancore]

I've never been home alone when there's a need for lights to be on in the first place. If this did happen though, and I heard someone laughing, I'd freak out, stay as silent as possible, call the police, and climb out my second storey window. Somehow. I don't think it'd be wise to confront them or anything, even if it turns out to be totally innocent. I am somewhat pathetic in situations like these.

 

[Isaac The Grape]

Grab my golf club. If I can't reach my golf club I go for a large knife.

 

[gallaetha_matt]

I'd use my talkboy to scare them off.

 

[ChaoticKraus]

Check what it is?

 

[Magnesium360]

Grab my knife. Better safe than sorry, and better stabbing than not stabbing.

 

[vxicepickxv]

Laugh, because I don't have a house, I have an apartment.

I'd probably also activate the security webcam to see who it is. From there, it's easy to figure out which plan I enact.

so what happens if he pulls a katana out

As I said in my EDIT: I jump out of my window. First, of course, I wonder who the fuck would bring a katana to a burglary, how completely impractical. And before you ask, if he tries to follow me, I run into the cellar which I then lock from the inside. If he tries to cut through the door? I exit towards the staircase, leaving the house and running to our neighbour's, all the while yelling for help. He won't cut me down with the whole neighbourhood watching.

 

[MagicMouse]

Grab my Springfield XDM from my drawer, insert magazine, rack the slide; then walk down the stairs making lots of noise.

I'm not paranoid, I am assuming that I wasn't expecting someone and that my doors were locked.

 

[ShawnShady]

ehm i always hide a knife in my room so ye i'd just go check it out.

 

[agentspidersilk]

Get my brothers 22 air rifle, or offer them cookies

 

[EeveeElectro]

I'd wonder why my boyfriend isn't bed with me, then put on Lady Gaga full blast and see how long the laughing man lasts.

 

[KindOfnElf]

First I'd lock the door of my room. Then get out of the house through the balcony of my room, and get to the front door as silently and as fast as possible and lock it from the outside, secure it with something so that it can't be open (there are a lot of handy things around our yard to do that). Then call the police, and enjoy the events.

EDIT: I forgot the laughing part. Ummm.... he'll (or she) probably stop laughing after what I'll do. On their way out, I'll probably throw a line like: -Why so serious?

 

[Ldude893]

Grab my scissors and see who is it.

 

[Jewrean]

It would go a little something... like this:
