Title: Have you ever stolen anything?
Post by: videoholic on June 22, 2004, 12:30:35 PM
Long ago I walked out of K-Mart with some car mats.

I think that\'s the only thing of any value I\'ve ever taken.  I actually knew the cashier and he just let me walk right through.  Was pretty simple.

I\'ve never done anything crazy like shove meet down my pants or anything.

Nothing at all. I work it retail and if I ever stole anything my retail career would be down the shitter.

never stole a thing, that is my numero uno most hated thing.  I had my car stereo stolen a couple weeks ago and am still pissed about it, so I\'d never do that to someone else.

Couple weeks ago my brother & I were drinking at a pub that specializes in micro brews. After sitting there for the better part of the day and consuming about 8 pints each of "arrogant bastard ale" at 7.2% alcohol content we were ripped.

The kid behind the bar ran a tab and gave it to us on a scrap of paper before he left and said "give this to whoever comes in next." Well, the chicky who was next was 15 minutes late, so we just left....

Does that count?

... If you\'re on the Internet, chances are, you\'ve stolen something.  You download music you don\'t own for free, a program, a game -- anything of that nature, you are a thief.  Like it or not, you are stealing.  I\'m not pointing fingers or anything, you didn\'t actually walk into the store and lift it off the shelf, but there isn\'t any difference all because you think you\'re doing it anonymously (like wearing a mask to a bank robbery).  I just have a hard time believeing any of you are totaly innocent of this crime.

I know I\'m guilty. :D

When I was younger I had a scam where I would steal as many expensive ties as I could from Macy\'s(~$60-$90). My friend and I would end up with anywhere from $600 to $800 worth of store credit and used it to get all kinds of shit from Macy\'s. We used to do it ALL the time and didn\'t think anything of it.

I haven\'t stole anything in a long time unless you consider the occasional mp3/movie/car stereo........

well back in highschool a bunch of us would raid a small retail store near school before going to woodshop class to get beverages, of course I being the nice man with a concience that I am I never participated....I just acted as a decoy for a small fee (usually a drink or two)

Strangely the store went bankrupt later that winter.

Well, one time I found a rubber band ball at wal-mart, but wal-mart doesn\'t sell them.  So, I just left with it like it was mine.

Post by: videoholic on June 22, 2004, 07:03:13 PM
so it\'s not alright to steal from Walmart, but the 3 year old kid that left his rubber band ball on a shelf and is probably still thinking about it today is ok?

Steal free downloads like music and programs, like Ryu said. Nothing in person.

Stole an ice scraper for car windshields from a hardware store when I was like 9.  I wanted that damn thing so bad.. rest not worth explaining.

mp3s- not anymore, iTunes user.  But I buy the cds of my favorite bands.  If it\'s not on iTunes then I\'ll use Kazaa, it\'s the studios\' fault for not letting me pay for it :D

movies- dloaded movies\' quality sucks.  I go on IRC a lot and it\'s funny to see people brag how they have Episode 2 a couple days before it hits theaters and such.  WTF cares??  Postcard-sized window on a 19" monitor, hopefully in stereo sound.. woohoo!!

programs- I actually bought Adobe Premiere at a discounted price of $250 with a firewire card but I still feel like I got ripped off.  If Photoshop/Macromedias were $50-$70 like they should be then I\'d cease the kazaa searches.

I think I accidentally stole a gum once in the shop down the street.

Most the things installed on this computer have been stolen. :D

I have no morals. :cool:

Me and my buddy growing up used to steal CD\'s from a "large electronics store".  We would cary like 4 CD\'s back to where they kept the Big Screen TVs (and where they had no survailence cameras), stick 3 of them down our pants and put one back in the music section on our way out.  Only did it twice at two different stores, then got smart and never tried it again.

Umm ok here goes....

We use to go into a cirkle k and set our backpacks down and  I would walk out with like 10-15 different comic books in them.

I once took 100 bucks off of one of my moms boyfriends. But I felt bad about it and gave the whole eighty bucks back!

GI Joes from a big retail store prolly over 30 of them.....

Want to know what was worse I\'am one of those people that always say how things dont influence our kids its "bad" parenting ie; video games movies whatever. when I use to do all that steeling my friend and I were playing D&D and I was a theif and this was a way for me to get character points in the game.

Lets see...

I\'ve stolen a wiffle ball from K-Mart... we had a bat already, lol
I\'ve also stolen ping-pong balls from the dollar store up the block for beer pong (or Beruit.. whatever you wanna call it)...

Nothing major, I\'ve thought about it but never could work up the guts i guess..
