"We're just the Wrecking Crew / Poor boys with nothing to do!"
|
||
- The Adolescents
|
||
|
||
"History is made at night -- character is what you are in the dark."
|
||
- Lord John Whorfin
|
||
|
||
Hot summer nights are the same no matter where you live . . . there's nothing
|
||
like a warm July evening to inspire a bunch of sex-starved adolescents to acts
|
||
of Random Senseless Vandalism (RSV). Unfortunately, this time of year also
|
||
tends to drain one's mind of all ideas that one might have for such
|
||
activities. Fear not! Contained herein are myriad suggestions of how to
|
||
spend a few early-morning hours enjoying yourself and annoying others. Call
|
||
your frhends together and try a few out.
|
||
|
||
A night of RSV is usually divided into two modes. The first mode is Cruising
|
||
-- simply driving along major thoroughfares until an opportunity presents
|
||
itself. Of course, you'll be keeping your eyes open for nubile members of the
|
||
opposite sex, and your windows open (or better, your roof down) so the rest of
|
||
the world can admire your taste in music and in clothing. On a well-balanced
|
||
night of RSV, most of your time will be spent in this mode, so choose your
|
||
music well. Here are a few tunes which I have found to be quite appropriate
|
||
for tooling down the streets at 2 AM -- ALWAYS use the 12" single versions.
|
||
|
||
Phil Collins: In The Air Tonight
|
||
Harold Faltermeyer: Axel F.
|
||
Dead Or Alive: Round Round
|
||
Alphaville: Big In Japan
|
||
Jean-Michel Jarre: Zoolook
|
||
Burning Sensations: Pablo Picasso
|
||
Duran Duran: View to a Kill
|
||
Russ Ballard: Voices
|
||
Cheap Trick: You Must Be Dreaming
|
||
|
||
After you've been to two McDonald's and five Circle K's, and you've seen
|
||
enough pussy to keep you horny for over a year -- so it's time to move out
|
||
and start the second mode: Random Senseless Vandalism. The mood of the music
|
||
goes over the edge, meaning, of course, Punk! Some sample tunes:
|
||
|
||
Sex Pistols: Anarchy in the U.K.
|
||
Fear: Let's Have A War
|
||
GBH: Do What You Do
|
||
Adolescents: Wrecking Crew
|
||
DEVO: Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA
|
||
Black Flag: Police Story, T.V. Party
|
||
Red Alert: In Britain
|
||
Bad Religion: In The Night
|
||
|
||
But, as the question goes, what do you DO when you Do What You Do? Now that
|
||
we've set up an appropriate musical mood, we can start in on the good stuff:
|
||
dhe Random Senseless Vandalism itself.
|
||
|
||
You'll need a few tools. A sample list follows.
|
||
|
||
crowbar
|
||
wire cutters
|
||
flashlight w/red filter
|
||
spray paint
|
||
survival knife
|
||
short (18") length of chain
|
||
rocks (medium-large)
|
||
caltrops (lots)
|
||
toilet paper
|
||
rope
|
||
assorted fireworks
|
||
BB or pellet gun/rifle
|
||
water balloons
|
||
|
||
Crowbar: The ultimate multi-purpose vandalism tool. Can be used to shatter
|
||
windows, break off doorknobs, and to pry open practically anything you
|
||
like.
|
||
|
||
Wire Cutters: You never know when you might walk into a fence you don't happen to
|
||
like, and some good wire cutters can alleviate the situation. Make sure
|
||
the fence isn't electrified before you try anything with it! Barbed wire
|
||
looks nice wrapped around the front end of a car, replacing its grille,
|
||
or festooned along the walls of your room. And a stretch of chainlink
|
||
adds a nice touch to any bedroom decor.
|
||
|
||
Flashlight w/Red Filter: There is nothing more suspicious-looking than a
|
||
bunch of guys out in a field with a flashlight, and the red filter will
|
||
help alleviate observation problems. Also, the red color allows you to
|
||
retain your night vision while keeping your eyes on what you are doing.
|
||
|
||
Spray Paint: The possibilities are endless. Check out my file "Fun! with
|
||
Spray Paint" for a few of them.
|
||
|
||
Survival Knife: This tool takes care of the stuff that the crowbar and the
|
||
wire cutters aren't really designed for. Try these: cutting down
|
||
tire-and-rope swings in front yards, slashing banners, collecting flags
|
||
(it's illegal to display them at night without proper illumination
|
||
anyway), slicing seatbelts that assholes leave hanging out of their car
|
||
doors. Fucking with convertible tops is bad form, but tarps over boats
|
||
or cars are great, especially if it's raining.
|
||
|
||
Short (18") Length of Chain:
|
||
ake it sturdy, this one will be taking a lot of
|
||
abuse. Use it on car bodies and windows, or connect it to your rope to
|
||
tow something large down the street a ways. Be careful, though!
|
||
Remember what happened in Mad Max!
|
||
|
||
Rocks: Easy to find, easier to use. The windows of houses and moving are targets for rocks.
|
||
|
||
Caltrops: In case an irate smart-ass citizen decides to chase you. (Don't
|
||
use 'em on cops unless you're SURE they didn't get a good look at your
|
||
car!) A caltrop is a piece of metal that, when you throw it onto the
|
||
ground, always lands so that one point sticks up into the air where it
|
||
can do major damage to tires and to feet wearing anything less than good
|
||
work boots. Sure, a board with nails in it will do the same thing, but
|
||
caltrops are less noticable, and who the hell is dumb enough to drive
|
||
over a random board in the middle of the street anyway? The simplest
|
||
reliable design is to take two nails, cut the heads off and sharpen both
|
||
ends of each, bend them to an angle of about 135 degrees, and weld them
|
||
together at the bend. If you're serious about it, get together with a
|
||
few of your friends and set up a mass-production line for a few hours the
|
||
evening before you all go out, and make about 50 of them. If you drop
|
||
them on a road (handfuls of 6-8 work well), don't travel on that road for
|
||
a while! And of coursd, you can just dump them in the middle of a major
|
||
intersection in the dead of night. Or in a parking lot outside a movie
|
||
theater just before the movie lets out. Caltrops pack one hell of a
|
||
wallop for their size.
|
||
|
||
Toilet Paper: No anarchy run is truly complete without toilet paper,
|
||
especially if it looks like it's going to rain. When toilet paper gets
|
||
wet, you can forget about trying to clean it up, because you CAN'T. If
|
||
the weather is nice, why not consider looking for a garden hose to help
|
||
the paper along?
|
||
|
||
Rope: You'll always be able to find a good use for rope. In fact, there's
|
||
really no need to go out and *buy* rope; chances are you'll be able to
|
||
find some on the way somewhere. Flagpole rope is made amazingly strong
|
||
since it has to stand up to years of the elements -- who wants to change
|
||
the rope on a flagpole? -- so get that kind if you can. It's easy to
|
||
find on any school campus. It's great fun to tie a sturdy slip knot on a
|
||
flagpole rope, tie the loose end to the back of a pickup, then take off.
|
||
See what gives first, the pole or the back of the truck. For that
|
||
matter, the rear axle trick from American Graffiti is pretty amusing too,
|
||
if your rope is strong enough.
|
||
|
||
Assorted Fireworks: Ah, yes, the Flames of the Gods. There's nothing like
|
||
driving around town, lighting fireworks, and throwing them out the
|
||
window. Bottle Rockets are the most spectacular . . . they'll sit on the
|
||
road until you're a few dozen yards away, then take off to God Knows
|
||
Where. Sometimes they'll fly down the street a ways, then hit a curb
|
||
and arc off in the direction of someone's bedroom window. (Of course,
|
||
you're using the kind "with report" for maximum effect, aren't you?)
|
||
M-80's and their more powerful homemade cousins are wonderful for
|
||
mailboxes, placing on car windshields, and just plain waking up everyone
|
||
within a quarter mile. Those "whistling cabins" are great for annoying
|
||
dogs as well as people, and if you run across a car that someone forgot
|
||
to lock, make sure the windows are rolled up and lob a few smoke bombs
|
||
inside. Kiss the interior of that vehicle GOODBYE. If you have
|
||
something a bit more powerful, like a CO2 cartridge filled with black
|
||
powder, knock a hole in a cinderblock wall with a large rock and drop the
|
||
pecker inside it. The brick it gets stuck next to is history. Looking
|
||
to shatter windows? Take one of those CO2 bombs with a long fuse and put
|
||
it in the middle of a 32 oz. glass bottle full of gravel, pick a nice
|
||
building with a lot of glass on it, drop and light the bomb, and LEAVE.
|
||
Wheee! Shrapnel! Who says the Neon Knights have all the fun?
|
||
|
||
BB or Pellet Gun/Rifle: For non-assholes only. Leave the small animals alone
|
||
. . . save your ammo for the targets that deserve to be abused, things
|
||
like people. Air guns are at their best when you're in a moving car.
|
||
Pump up the air rifle and load a few BB's in, then buzz by the local car
|
||
dealership and take out that nice big showroom window -- ftow! Mr. Slick
|
||
Sam, The Used Car Man, now has to unload an Eldie or two to pay for a new
|
||
pane of glass. And oh, how expensive that glass can be! These are also
|
||
great for vans with custom murals on the side. You can elect to use low
|
||
power and just deface the thing, or go all the way and punch a few holes.
|
||
'Sup to you! And do you know how much it costs to replace the body
|
||
panels on a Corvette? Yow!
|
||
|
||
Water Balloons: Yeah, plain water balloons really belong to the
|
||
grade-schoolers and the fraternity types with balloon launchers, but how
|
||
about putting about a tablespoon of Rit dye in the balloon before you
|
||
fill it? Looks really nice on stucco or on white cinderblock, where it
|
||
gets a chance to soak in for a few hours. Be imaginative, use a few
|
||
balloons of different colors on a single target for some instant modern
|
||
art.
|
||
|
||
Your Bare Hands: A vandal needs no tools to do his dirty work -- his bare
|
||
hands can do a great deal. Try switching around a few realty signs.
|
||
Grab a trash bag that's waiting for the 6AM pickup as you drive by, then
|
||
drag it alongside the car as you speed down the street. When it breaks,
|
||
someone will have a serious mess to deal with. Or introduce that trash
|
||
bag to the neighbor's pool. Bananna peels and pool filters get along
|
||
marvelously. Got a road that's really just a loooooong hill? Montgomery
|
||
Blvd. in Albuquerque is a good example, with at lease five miles of long,
|
||
straight, gentle gradient. "Borrow" someone's spare tire and see how far
|
||
down the hill it'll roll before it hits something (or someone!). Or
|
||
"borrow" several, have everyone bet on a tire, and hold a race.
|
||
|
||
Well, people! Now you've got some ideas for your RSV runs!!
|
||
|
||
Go for it!!
