So me and a friend went out to buy a TV. Spend about thirty minutes in the store talking to the salesman, purchase the TV, and we pull my truck up to the front of the store waiting for them to bring it out.

All of a sudden I hear an egg shell crack. Turn around to see yolk hanging off the bed of my truck and the rear window. WTF? Theres a white car driving off (full of jackasses giggling like school girls I assume), and while I'm not really pissed (actually I was laughing a bit at how absurd it was) I wish I'd noticed it earlier because I have a random, sizeable red brick in the back of my truck and they weren't too far off.

Washed it off immediately. Not the worst thing that can happen, but it was a nice reminder that there are some people in this world that need a good ass kicking.

Could be worse. Me and a friend both got our windscreens smashed out last year, on opposite sides of town. Don't think it was an enemy thing, just random assholes.

when you have a bunch of bored kids together with a car, yes an egging is not out of the realm of possibility. usually it's really nice or really rice cars though.

Yes. More than once. Except it wasn't eggs. And I wasn't there when it happened. And it smelled like shit. Because it was shit.

I've only ever been on the giving end, never the receiving.

We got busted by the cops on our second outing, but nobody pressed any charges, luckily.

(Yes, I know I was an ass as a teenager...)

it wouldn't be so bad if it didn't destroy the paint job on the car. Found out too late that someone had egged the car, had to get it redone, not a very happy expense.

It's happened around my hood, but not as much as other things.
Usually around gang initiation times is when it's time to worry about vandalizing.
Usually it varies from graffitti, paintball, to bats and rocks through windows. The worst was about 5 years ago, somebody drove down the block smashing out car windows for 6 blocks or so.
It's happened to my moms car several times now she hides it in the garage. I'm shocked it hasn't happened to mine, even though it would seem like an easy enough target for any attack due to all the exterior damage, from when I got totaled.

Hmmm. Well if the kids live in a household of my next door neighbor, the teenager stays home while the family goes camping all weekend. That's when the mice play since the cats are away.

Some kids did egg our cars a few years ago at around 2am. So, the next night I set up a camera pointing towards the street. Review of the tape the next morning indicated the kids saw the red flashing light and sped off like Godzilla was chasing them.

Haven't had an egg throwing incident since. :)
