Nope.

We always get our thin mints from the scouts in front of Lowe’s or Target. Other than that, I won’t buy shit from people knocking on my door. And go away.

I always answer the door with a gun, once had someone knock and put his thumb over the peep hole...I shouted thru the door I was gonna shoot him thru the door if he didn’t remove his thumb...he did and began profusely apologizing..turned out to be my asshole neighbor thinking it was funny...idiot knows I was a cop and had someone threaten my life (credible) . I just quit answering all together.

If you know me, call ahead.

I used to be immune to that. We had a large window near the front door. My 2 Rotties and our yellow lab mastiff mix going ape shit at the window usually discouraged the knock. THe REALLY brave (or desperate) people met ME. WHich usually ended abruptly.Big Grin

But yes the occasional school fund raiser will get my support. EXCEPT that little bitch that toom my money and NEVER delivered my summer sausage and cheese. I just wish I could remember her as I'm sure she groen some in the 7 or so years since then and I'm liable to make the same mistake again. I really am a big softy. Usually,
