So Anyone Else Going to Try Their Hand at Lockpicking?

<sigh>

Gerstmann posts that he wants lockpicks for Christmas.  That gets the tumblers in my head clicking (nyuk nyuk) and I think 'man, that'd be an awesome hobby/skill to have.'  Now I've gone off and purchased a set for myself along with two books on lockpicking.

Anyone else gonna give it a go?

haha no, but good luck. Don't get arrested.

My little brother likes picking locks. I tried it, was bored by it. I found it either too frustrating or too easy. Nothing interesting about it.

Just maybe. Just maybe . . .

i saw a few youtube vids on how to pick some locks. It seems to take too much time for what it's worth. Only good thing i see coming out of it is if you actually lost your key or combo, you can get through it by using those techniques.

I've always wanted to learn this, i have a lockpick set in my attic that i bought ages ago online, need to get some books to learn from though.

Oh I'm sure it's a big waste of time and money, but what the heck.  Maybe some day I'll break into the GB offices and steal the deer head!

If you did that you would have the Luchadeer curse for eternity.

I friend of mine showed me how to do it in the most simple type of lockers (the ones in crap motel rooms). It's actually much easier than it sounds, but I don't have anything that I feel like breaking into.

The Lockpicks have arrived. Muahahahaha.

I don't see the point in lockpicking. Unless you're going to become a locksmith, there is no use.

Dood, lockpicking would be an AWESOME hobby!!!  I don't know why I haven't picked it up.  They should make this a NECESSARY thing to know in the world.

This video is useful for getting started.

That got me thinking about it, too. But do you really need a kit for it, a friend of just uses a paper clip.

Actually, yes. I hope one day that I will be skilled in the art of lockpicking. Not that I currently have any use for it, but it'd be pretty rad to be able to do.

What it doesn't work like in oblivion/fall out 3? lols. Seems like a nice hobby, better than juggling at least.
