Bobby pin in door, massive fail

Sign in to disble this ad
So, me and my roommate came into possession of some bobby pins, and decided it would be super cool to pick the lock.

It was not super cool, and the end of the bobby pin is stuck in the door.

I figure if you guys give legal advice, you must know how to deal with this situation. Please?

Stuck in the keyhole? Did you manage to get inside or are you locked out?

Looks like It's time to get the Yellow Pages and call a locksmith, either that or call Building Maintenance and "Fess UP"...

Your dorm room?
LMAO!!
I guess it sucks to be you now, you're gonna have to tell on yourself. Time to report it to the floor monitor and get the maintenance guy there to fix it. Or you can keep screwing with it and mess it up really bad...and THEN call for the maint guy.

HA! Lucky you!

It's not that big of deal...why lie about it like a punk coward? The worst that will happen is they'll chew you out for a couple of minutes.

Yeah, is it the metal itself or that plastic coating they dip the ends in?

Either way, gotta call maintenance...disassembly of the lock is in order...

Can you take a pic of it? It would help to see the type of lock, condition of the bobby pin, etc.

Better idea. Pick some one on your floor that you either hate, or have a good relationship with, and blame/prank them by telling the RA that they did it, and swear up and down, with your roommate as witness, and preferably the guys across the hall, who you might have to bribe with sexual favors, as well. This way, even if you fail, it will be epic.

If it's just the plastic bit on the end of the bobby pin, maybe try kissing the lock and suck that sucker out?

Not possible though with the levers up in the chamber, you need a pin to move them first?

The real world is not Fallout. Get a real lockpicking kit if you want to pick locks.
