I've saw such behaviour in a National Geographic magazine.
They tried that once, but couldn't get the darts through the cinder blocks of the castle... erm, I mean "house". yeah, that's what I meant. After the attempt, I promptly cancelled my subscription to NatGeo.

Oh. I see. I always thought it was because, well, you know the history that postmen have with dogs, and I thought maybe the sign on my gate that says "Never mind the dog, Beware the owner" was off-putting to the postman.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
