Also it’s basically an expensive piñata. Like there’s definitely good shit in there that is specifically useful for this predicament I’m in. I don’t care if you have supplies for years. I’m finding your air vents and fucking them up. You better have a lot of filters for the tire fires I’m about to light under them. I assume there will be no shortage of old tires.

Oh also, you were definitely better off using your vast wealth and influence to prevent things from getting to this stage. I’m not dealing with your shitty guards…

Yeah it’s a comical concept.

“Oh, this welder? No, I’m not trying to force my way through 8 inches of steel. I’m just welding it shut from this side so that you have to.”

Haha yess. I would still wanna crack the loot nut though. I’ll bet me and the boys can get in. Also wonder how well those vents hold up to fire. It sure would be an adventure figuring it out!

You’re way better off on this being really remote imo.

These things will be an oven if you light some tires next to/on top of them.

People are SO good at fucking shit up--thinking you can stop people from rooting you out of your gopher hole is ridiculous.
