If it weren't for the cans of soda that have been in there for months, that might be it.

Make two lunches. Put one visible in the front that with some syrup of ipecac in it. Just make sure you don't eat that one.

You realise of course if anything you do causes harm to the person stealing your stuff they can sue you right? Yes it's retarted, but the presidence has been set before, and the their fscking won.

Not a cinder block, an anvil :D
And of course it has to be made by Acme :D

I'm not usually a grammar/speling nazi, but man, that post makes my eyes bleed.

If it's a dark colored drink, go with as much food coloring as you can before it's obvious, plus really strong laxatives. Then make the rounds when it's stolen. =D

I would try shaking the can before putting it into the fridge. Then, once in a while, when no other co workers are looking go back and shake it again. Keep this up and eventually you will either catch the culprit in action or better yet, the culprit will take the bait just after you shook it and it will just explode on opening! heehee! Either way, you should find the person as well as get a great laugh when they get pwned!

Same suggestion for me.

Laxatives are a no-no. Under the worst case scenario - someone decides to press charges - you're on pretty shaky ground...

"And, why did you lace your drink with laxatives?"
"Because I wanted to find out who was drinking my beverages."
"Ahh, so you assumed someone else was going to drink it?"
"Yes, that's correct."
"So, you're admitting to intentionally tampering with a product that you knew someone else was going to consume."

= felony (IIRC)

I think you can be arrested for drugging someone if you give them a laxitive. I wouldnt try it.

Sounds like some one fell for the old "uncontrollable defecating cake" trick.
