Have you ever picked a lock?
edit: a practice lock is any lock that you were picking purely for practice which was not securing anything. a lock in the wild is a lock that was in place to actually secure something (love locks count)

Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.
While talking to a colleague about lockpicking it came up that they have never picked a lock. Like, not even once in their childhood.
Another colleague listening in admitted they also have never picked a lock.
My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life picked a lock.
Have you picked a lock?
Please boost for scientific accuracy.
No i have a big bolt cutter, no finesse just brute power. And I never used it, btw what is a good non pickable lock for my door? Now you got me scared.
@Didthat1957 Not sure but this guy might know

First lock i ever picked was the lock on an office desk drawer at my first job out of college when i was 25.
Didn't really do anything else until i was about 48 and got a transparent padlock and set of basic picks to practice with. Used the picks one time to get in the front door of my house after accidentally locking myself out.
But other than that, i've never done anything.
