List plots you've foiled in 2002 in this thread
My wife was plotting to buy Coke instead of Pepsi. I was in the store with her and switched it behind her back, thereby foiling her plot. Because of this, I deserve to be able to tap your phone.

Now you tell me why you should be allowed to tap my phone.

1. My two year old son was planning on hitting my four year old daughter.
I stepped in before it happened and foiled his plot.

I also should be allowed to tap your phone.

3. My alarm clock
had decided, in a frightening exhibition of extremism, to awaken me for class. Needless to say, I foiled the hell out of that sumbitch

9. But, whose plot was it??
And why have you waited three years to share it with us?

:D

5. My bladder, full with rootbeer, schemed to make me
get up and leave the theater in the only worthwhile scene in "Star Wars: Attack of the Clones", that being the Yoda lightsaber fight scene.

The bladder had plenty of opportunity through the first hour and forty-five minutes to part me from the flick, but it decided to wait. Bladder thought that I would succumb to it's pressure, after so many times waking in the middle of the night.

Needless to say, bladder was pretty angry over the whole thing, but I showed who was boss.

I should tap your phone because you conspired with bladder to tell the snack bar employee to encourage me to get the "extra large jumbo" root beer for only a quarter more.

6. My tree was plotting against me
It was littering my lawn with small dead branches, in a plot to make me work and pick them up.

I successfully avoided this cheap, sleazy, unscrupulous behavior, and simply rendered the sticks invisible to my eyesight.

Male pattern blindness is quite a skill.

7. LOL, male pattern blindness.
Male pattern deafness is a feat my father has mastered.

11. Yes, but was it a plot?
For instance, did you avoid another driver who was conspiring to smack your car? You can't tap my phone unless it was a PLOT. ;)

(Glad you're okay)

12. There are way too many to count.
It's pretty much my full-time job, plot-foiling.

Highlights include:

Foiling plot by son to stash dirty underwear under living room couch. He managed to get about nine under there, but eventually I busted him.

Foiling plot previously made by myself, to remember wedding anniversary. :scared: Perhaps not one of my better moves.

Foiling plot by toddler to run behind the counter and grab an employee's legs, at a local Pizzeria. No. Actually I didn't foil that one. He was too fast.

14. Matcom's cabal was *this close* to taking over the lounge
With only seconds to spare, I coolly posted a pic-heavy thread of an all-thong fashion show in Rio.

My agent insists a movie deal is in the works any day now...

17. I sent all the teenagers text messages
asking 'have you checked the children?' from my computer, so they didn't know who it was, thereby foiling their plot to go see the movie.

I should be able to tap your phone AND read your mail for that one.

18. The cat was planning to hide my oatmeal
but she got distracted by learning how to open and close doors, and locked Dad in the basement. The oatmeal was not harmed. :P

24. My son was plotting to join the military
but.... when I learned through covert activity* that he had earned a scholarship to any MA state college or university, I put my foot down and told him he had to go to college first, and when he got his 4 year degree, he can think about college then.





*I got a letter from the governor!
