We got bageled

Is this a local phenomena, or does it exist elsewhere? Instead of egging a house or TPing, kids get bags of leftover bagels from behind the local bagel place and pitch them at your yard etc.

It's only funny until you have to pick them up. We had a 30 gal. garbage can full of bagels and part of another at the curb this morning.

A neighbor saw teenage boys getting back into their car as they drove off.

I've never heard of that. But I have to say, I'd still prefer it over toilet paper or eggs.

Never heard of that before - in NM they still use t.p. - wouldn't a bagel cause damage if it was stale?

These were stale only in that they were end-of-day bagels.

What did you do to deserve that, then? confiscate their iPods?

Dar, if you're Jewish, it makes it a hate crime. Call the ACLU.

The girls haven't dated much, so I don't know many teenage boys. I can't see how I could have pissed one off.

I do wonder, though, if they were somehow showing off for one of the darlets.

No, not Jewish. Not even Jewish-ish.

You know, if you're gonna throw stuff at someone's place, at least throwing something that ends up feeding the birds is sorta Green.

Where else is this fad going on? Will this result in bakeries having to monitor their stale goods receptacles?

I wonder when the first lawsuit will hit...

I'd guess that this is the answer, myself. In my day, toilet-papering someone's house was like pulling their hair on the playground because you liked them. Every once in awhile it was because the kid was extremely unpopular, but usually it was the cheerleaders doing it to the star quarterback, etc. I'd say it's even likely that one of the darlets already knows who did it.

I wish someone would bagel my house. I could use the free dog and chicken food.

Gather 'em up, donate 'em to the local soup kitchen, and take a tax deduction for 2009, since it was new years eve, eve.
