I always have to make excuses for the people who mess up my house when I'm not here. Never figured out how the got through the locked door.

I'd leave my house unlocked every day if some strangers would come by and clean it!

The way my luck runs I think if I ever came home and found the door unlocked and the house immaculately cleaned, the person who cleaned it would be in the closet, wearing a clown suit and holding a hatchet.

My Mom went ballistic at us when we came home to find the crusts of a PBJ left on the kitchen counter. All of us denied culpability
“So someone broke into the house, made a sandwich, and left the crust,” she said.
“Must be what happened, because it wasn’t one of us,” my brother yelled back.
Both sides simmered for a couple of days. One of my brother’s other friends asked “Why was Scott at your house?”
Mom locked the doors after that.
When I left for college, I really wanted to leave a sandwich crust on the counter. I decided against it.

The way MY luck runs, I'd come home and there'd be a Canadian pro hockey game going on in the living room.

Of course I can't find an image online, but it reminds me of the Far Side cartoon where a bunch of trenchcoated mobsters are moving around pieces of furniture in a room while one of them says to the homeowner: "The boss wants his money, see? Or next time it won't just be your living room we'll rearrange."

Maybe it was the scorch marks from the flame thrower that made it conspicuously clean.
