• congratulations, you've progressed to stage 2

    When I was at uni someone was always stealing shower gel. I once left mine in there for no more than 2 minutes - when I went back, it was gone.

    That was the final straw, and I concocted a revenge. I first bought mint shower gel (thinking that mint would be the stealthiest scent to use in combination with menthol) and decanted about a third of the gel, replacing this with Deep Heat. Once I had finished mixing, the resultant concoction was indistinguishable from an opaque shower gel - until you used it.

    We baited the trap and waited. A few weeks later, a water bomb was left on one of the toilet doors, so I guess we made our point.

    That said, I once got shampoo in my eyes, mistook a housemate's depilitory cream for shower gel and removed about 1/3 of my body hair, so I guess that's just karma huh?
