A pound of sugar in a gas tank is also an option.

Sugar in a gas tank will only really clog the fuel filter. Sucrose doesn't dissolve in gasoline. Water in the fuel would be more harmful than sugar.

Mothballs.

Or squirt super glue in the locks.

Sand+oil+paint mixture on the windows.

Stuff the radiator full of dryer lint.

There is no shortage of ways to cheaply and quickly fuck up equipment.

We used JB Weld in door locks. No getting that off with acetone.

About

Biodiversity is a term used to describe the enormous variety of life on Earth. It can be used more specifically to refer to all of the species in one region or ecosystem. Biodiversity refers to every living thing, including plants, bacteria, animals, and humans. Scientists have estimated that there are around 8.7 million species of plants and animals in existence. However, only around 1.2 million species have been identified and described so far, most of which are insects. This means that millions of other organisms remain a complete mystery.

Over generations, all of the species that are currently alive today have evolved unique traits that make them distinct from other species. These differences are what scientists use to tell one species from another. Organisms that have evolved to be so different from one another that they can no longer reproduce with each other are considered different species. All organisms that can reproduce with each other fall into one species. Read more...
