Glitter Bomb?

AlexaNow · 06/05/2021 20:42

Someone sent DP a glitter / tiny penis confetti to work. He opened it at work and was covered in tiny penis confetti and glitter. It was all over him, his desk and floor. He opened it in his office and was embarrassed but is now fuming. He's contacted the company that sent it - to try and find out who sent it to him. Their email bounces back and they don't pick up the phone.

I'm wondering if this counts as criminal damage or harassment and he should report it to the police.

I sent one of those to my boss
He started it by emptying a hole punch in my desk drawers at work, then over my keyboard
He was so excited "POST! At work!" And then got drowned in glitter Grin

"Glitter is impossible to clean up so in theory it caused damage"

This can't be real

What? Call the police? Everyone is a bit
Batshit on here tonight. Hoover it up, shrug and move on ffs!

Sounds like the sender got bang for her buck, pissed off her ex and the OW!

Pumpkintopf · 06/05/2021 21:07

Why does he think his ex sent it? Has he annoyed her?

(I don't think you should call the police btw)

Might I suggest the glitter clean up cloth?

The tiny dick confetti bomb and follow up butthurt postcard cost about £20 in total. A good use of £20 😂.

This has opened my mind to a whole host of possibilities....

@Thoughtcontagion

I’m hiding my debit card and coming off line got too many people to send too

As an ex police officer I’d love to take this report though and gather the offending glitter/small penis as exhibit A Grin would cheer me right up

So do you think we should report it to the police?

That's what I thought too - although I am tempted to buy some Grin

A tube of glitter poured into a folded sheet of A4 in an envelope would do a very similar job for much less money. Send through Royal Mail with a printed envelope- truly untraceable.
DifficultPifcultLemonDifficult · 06/05/2021 21:19

I 100% think you should report it to the police.

Make sure and tell them how many glittery dicks there were, and the fact your dh was covered in cocks.

Flowers for your dh, having several shiny cocks all over you is no laughing matter.

AlexaNow · 06/05/2021 21:19

It isn't an ad. DP is furious and we want to know what we can do.

Haha I certainly am! Thai site is amazing. Would love to send one of these to my ex-boss who I was close to taking to tribunal for harassment.

Buy a Dyson Grin

I think it may be a bit late, the Bomb Disposal squad tend to deal with unexploded ordnance.

However your DP may want to consider keeping a bucket of sand by his desk just in case something similar should happen. I know I would.

oh, and some oven gloves...

DifficultPifcultLemonDifficult · 06/05/2021 21:27

Buy a Dyson

Is a Dyson the best thing for sucking a dick? 🤣🤣

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 06/05/2021 21:27

OP, you should absolutely definitely certainly report it to the police.
I'd contact your local newspaper. The sad face covered in tiny glittery cocks will be a great story

HelpMeh · 06/05/2021 21:28

Can you apply the "when life gives you lemons" philosophy? What can one do with an excess of penis confetti? 🤔

Has he actually done something deserving of a penis bomb in the work place?

OMG hun absolutely report it! We all know the dangers of glitter, and glittery cocks, well let's not go there. Don't bother with 101, 999 now!

What you do is buy a glitter clean up cloth- I've already said this upthread. RTFT, OP.
