I was under direct orders not to die
🐵❌💀

I'm not sure why. I wear clothes all the time when I'm in my living room. Yet for a while now I've found cigarette butts in my flowerbed underneath my living room window and sometimes faintly smell cigarettes. I did tonight around 1 a.m.

What should I do to fix this situation? Should I just install a motion sensor light on the front of my house or do something more drastic? Has anyone ever dealt with this before?

Is it one of you?!?

Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
The motion sensor light will probably make him skedaddle, or you could just put a little sign in the window that says 'gently caress off, creep.' Something small so that people out on the street aren't able to read it but when they're right up under your window they'll see it.

Maybe he has a fetish where he only gets off to fully clothed women. Try walking around naked all the time instead.

When you're in your living room at night, just occasionally turn your head in one, flat motion and stare at the window for 3-5 minutes while remaining as motionless as possible. Then use the same motion to turn your head and resume what you were doing.

Get some of those all black contacts and sit in you living room with a dim light on. When you think he's outside, turn your head slowly and, unblinking start shouting, "Come into the darkness, Come into the darkness, Come in to the darkness..."

It should work.

Do you live like near a street or something? Seems pretty ballsy of a voyeur to just casually smoke and throw his stuff out under your window, which I'm assuming is open

Set up a camera or something

Also, is it still possible to get static on your TV? Do the head turn thing while watching static.
That should also be the only thing in the room casting light.

I saw a dude doing this weird crab walk/pookeepsie tape creep where he would draw his legs up to his chest on each step. It was at like 12am at a park, just me and my friend otherwise. He was doing it around my car as we were coming back, was fuckin creepy as hell.

While that's indeed creepy as hell (drugs?), I'm more so impressed you got I was going for Poughkeepsie Tapes.

It's probably a chainsmoking neighbour and hes using your flowerpot to put his butts in and this has nothing to do with you being peeped upon you narcissist.

are you seriously suggesting that one of us is
1. going outside
2. staying in one place outside long enough to smoke a cigarette rather than shyly looking at our phones and retreating back into the cellar as soon as possible

Call your local police department non emergency line and let them know what is happening.

They will note your request for service and your local beat officer will be briefed to keep an eye out.

This is literally what we pay taxes for to fund police, so use it.

As far as environmental design to prevent crime, the key thing is visibility from the street. If there's any bushes or whatever stuff that someone can hide behind, remove it. If it's dark, add light. You want the cop driving by to be able to see anyone who may be hiding.

Motion lights are good but consider that you want the light on when the cop is driving by, not when the prowler is sneaking up.. In most situations I think a less bright but always on light is more of a deterrent.
