Stealing
 
What have you stolen?

alyasa 08.06.2006 11:58 PM

Books from libraries...

Cantankerous 08.07.2006 12:00 AM

library books, library CDs, library records, library DVDs, candy from the bulk section, pins, sunglasses, just little shit that no one will miss.

static-harmony 08.07.2006 12:07 AM

I once stole a cd when it was easier to steal

!@#$%! 08.07.2006 12:10 AM

people who steal from libraries should be shot in the asshole and be left to die from internal bleeding in some rat infested alley

to whoever stole all the books, records and movies that i never got at the dc library (especially kenneth anger's lucifer rising): fuck you, fuck your mother, and fuck your kid's puppy
--

now, about admitting to my own guilt, i'd have to check with my attorney before making such public confessions.

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:12 AM

I also steal from musicians, actors and pornographic actresses; occasionally.

actors especially deserved to be separated from their money/ possessions / waiter's uniforms

they are such an insufferable bunch, generaly speaking

Nothing.

acousticrock87 08.07.2006 12:18 AM

You can't steal from a library. You can only refuse to return it. That's way too easy, and is undeserving of the title.

I stole a pog and a micro-machine from my friend, and a happy meal toy from my babysitter.

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:21 AM

I got caught stealing a bicycle once. Spent a night in jail.

Everyneurotic 08.07.2006 12:21 AM

toys from the supermarket

i once tried to steal a static-x cd but i got caught, and yelled my way out of getting me into trouble.

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:23 AM

Wow. It never even crossed my mind to steal toys form the supermarket, when I was into toys.

static-harmony 08.07.2006 12:25 AM

I did that once when I was a kid, but it was from the 99 cent store

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:27 AM

That is a supermarket, albeit a budgeted one...

golden child 08.07.2006 12:28 AM

you cant even really refuse to return it, because then they charge you and if you dont pay they get the collection agency on your ass and it really isnt worth it.

you could get some diabolical plan to get past the detectors.

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:30 AM

I actually ripped off the covers. Worked for my high school library.

one time i was doing school work at the library and I accidently put this astronomy book in my backpack on the way out. the detectors never went off and i didnt know about it till the next day at school, i eventually took it back though

they don't even yell at you if the detectors go off here. just walk out with the shit in your bag.

golden child 08.07.2006 12:34 AM

haha

when working in the library its fun to put books in peoples backpacks, then they unknowingly walk out. once i did it to someone but the library was crowded this period so like 20 people walked out at once and it went off, and the person along with some others kept walking while the other got stopped and put through one by one.

m^a(t)h 08.07.2006 12:34 AM

my friend said he went to target with this kid who opened up cd cases and stuffed cds down his pants, and it worked too.

my friends sometimes steal books from barnesandnoble, those wood things you pass in the store entrances are not detectors, still nervous to try myself

luxinterior 08.07.2006 12:34 AM

Stealing bothers me, although cheating bothers me even more.

static-harmony 08.07.2006 12:34 AM

I stole those books they give you in school to learn I have math science and english books that I never returned than again those weren't under my name.

if it's from your employer, however, it can be a form of:

a) payback

b) sabotage

c) sticking it to the man

d) compensation for unpaid wages

e) all of the above

I have to agree with you.

golden child 08.07.2006 12:37 AM

oh yeah i steal shit from work all the time

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:38 AM

Of course, it can all be justification for the fact that your ass is grass...

luxinterior 08.07.2006 12:39 AM

Seriously though, I hope you all go to jail.

static-harmony 08.07.2006 12:40 AM

don't worry if I go to jail I'll be the jail slut.I don't mind swinging that way if I get protected.

!@#$%! 08.07.2006 12:43 AM

during college i went to parties that were fully catered by a certain equivalent of 7-11. from paper cups to all manner of snacks. the keg however was purchased.

here's another one: your friend walks up to the register, there is a long line, you punch no sale, take his dollar & give him quarters. regardless of the a mount (how is boxes & boxes of $4 pepperidge farm cookies). voila. "organized crime"

everyone eventually got quietly replaced, i believe.

as far as grand larceny goes however i'll have to plead the 5th

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:43 AM

No one's fucking this bitch.

!@#$%! 08.07.2006 12:46 AM

jokes aside, theft sucks. especially from libraries.

m^a(t)h 08.07.2006 12:46 AM

i think stealing books is the most honest form of stealing, . if i worked at a bookstore and saw i kid walk out with a james joyce novel, i would be impressed if anything

alyasa 08.07.2006 12:49 AM

Uhm. shoot me now, i walked out with Mr. Stephen King's The Shining...

Whereas I would try to subdue him. Hopefully it would result in a knife fight of some sort. I've started carrying a knife. So far I haven't had to use it.

i actually liked kubrick's movie more than the actual book. i heard during production king was mad b/c kubrick wouldnt listen to his suggestions or consult the book, thats probably why it was so good. king is very overrated, but very accessible so..

Honestly, violence is completely uncalled for in situations involving libraries and juvenile delinquents.

Cantankerous 08.07.2006 12:56 AM

i'm already going to hell anyway, so it doesn't matter.
