A group of idiots decided to ding-dong ditch my house one too many times, as they literally banged on my door as hard as they can just to prank me and my family. But after they kicked my door open, they were met with the biggest dog I'm sure they've ever seen in their lives, as they literally ran as fast as they could while my dog chased them down the street. And I'm honestly still laughing about this to this day because those idiots absolutely deserved it.

Here's what happened. Okay, so I wasn't really sure whether to post this or not, but I've been wanting to tell people about it, so here we go.

My partner and I live in the smallest cul-de-sac probably in the world. You can walk the entire community in probably five minutes, and you would think that this would foster a close neighborhood, but everybody just mostly keeps to themselves. The only reason I mention this is to say that we have no idea who would do this. Now, for reference, we rent. And since we've been in this neighborhood for about four years now, without any incident, we never got around to getting a ring camera or anything like that, which will be changing after this incident. We just have an old-fashioned doorbell and a kind of crappy latch on the front door. Well, a few weeks ago, we got ding-dong ditched. It's never happened before, and it was kind of funny, so we just went along with our day and nothing else happened for a few more weeks. And you know what? This probably encouraged them to do it again. But this time, they decided to pound the front door instead of ringing the door bell. Now, I have a habit of leaving the front door unlocked when I'm waiting on a delivery, and this was one of those days. It happened really fast, but this was what I put together. The first knock did nothing but alert our dog, a 55-pound half-breed that someone was at the door. So naturally, she ran downstairs to bark at the door.

The second knock must have pushed the door off the latch, but not completely all the way. And remember, I said it's a crappy latch. Well, the third knock was their final mistake. We could only hear it from upstairs. The bang of the door smacking against the wall, the scrambling footsteps, and the dog chasing them out the door. We ran downstairs and thankfully our dog isn't the kind to run away.

She ran the intrud them out the door. We ran downstairs, and thankfully,

our dog is in the kind to run away. She ran the intruders off the property, then stood guard at the

open front door, as it was still swinging from its hard impact against the wall. In our lawn was

an abandoned but full bag of puffy Cheetos, and on the sidewalk in front of our house was an Arizona

tea that was either dropped or thrown,

but was essentially left abandoned to spill its mostly full contents into the gutter. So it was obvious that all of this was abandoned in the great escape. And it was so freaking funny. It was sitcom-level stuff. So I decided to leave it there in case they decided to come back for them. Well, they were both gone by the next morning. The best part is I cannot tell if it was a bunch of stupid kids or a bunch of stupid young adults, but I seriously don't think they'll be coming back anytime soon, especially if they don't want to deal with my dog in the process. Oh man, that is amazing. I love this story so much because this went way beyond what would be like a normal prank or some kind of like harmless

fun and instead ventured into something that was quite malicious if you ask me like seriously think

about it these idiots were banging on your front door and when i think of like banging on the door

i think of them like pounding or even kicking the door to like get your attention and i don't know

about you but unless my house is on fire or like the police are there you better better not be knocking on my door like that, especially when there is literally a doorbell right there.

So, the fact that your 55 pound dog literally got out and started chasing them down the sidewalk, like that is hilarious and so deserved.

Because based on what they left behind, I guarantee you it was just a bunch of stupid kids running around the neighborhood, doing stuff they definitely shouldn't be doing, thus making the result of this entirely earned. Like, you seriously can't start knocking on someone's door, literally kick the door open, and not expect some big dog or some consequence waiting on the other side. Like, you know for a fact they heard that dog barking, because at that point, if they were smart enough they would have been been like, hey, that dog sounds really big, let's get out of here. So good for you for putting these people in their place, whoever they were, because the way they treated your property and your door was incredibly disrespectful.
