  • "Well I'll Steal It Anyway."

    Background: At Mom's art gallery, someone had left behind a twin pack of printer ink from "Hayche-Pee". It was sitting around before one of the other artists got fed up and posted a note that it was free. Mom knows that I like to sell things on ebay, so she took it home. Rather than listing it, I decided to wait since this weekend was the family yard sale; where mom, dad and several of my cousins gather all our stuff into one HUGE sale. I had priced the ink at $1. It was near to the road with the rest of my things.

    Around 1, when I was being distracted by pizza and the world's most adorable 3 year old customer, Fucking Reject (FR for short) walks up to my cousin Bella, who was at her toy table next to mine. Bella is 9 years old.

    FR: "50 cents for one ink."

    B: "No, that's my cousin ralerin's ink. She says it's $1."

    FR: "No, I want one. 50 cents or I'll take it anyway."

    B: "No, it's $1."

    FR: "Well then. *rips box open, grabs the ink cartridge and is in his car in a flash.*

    Unfortunately for FR, he failed to notice that the ink was manufactured in 2007 and had been sitting in the art gallery for several years. Moron stole a most likely dry ink cartridge.

          Wow. I've had a lot of garage sales over the years. I've had people haggle over prices in totally ridiculous ways (I'll give you a dollar for that thing you have fifty dollars on), I've had people steal stuff (which in my mind is pretty low, as just about anyone who has a garage sale does it cause they could use the money, otherwise they'd just take it all to a charity if they don't want it).

          But I have never had anyone flat out tell me that if I didn't take what they offered they'd steal it! Wow. Now I think I'll be sure to have my phone on me at all times, anyone ever says that and I'll just aim at their car and say "just took a photo of your license plate, go ahead".

          Just when I think I've heard it all...... people sink to a brand new low.

          Madness takes it's toll....

            What an ass; I would have called the police with his plate number; theft is still theft.

              Even if the cartridge was still usable, his printer might have refused to recognize it (those printers can be very picky about ink; I've had ours refuse to even see a non-expired cartridge that hadn't really been used, just opened).

                What is this I don't even...

                And why bother actually unpackaging it before stealing it? Surely it would have been easier to just take off with it whole?!

                    It was probably just habit. He does that every time he steal something.

                        I'm just waiting for the update wherein the loser thief comes back to the house raging about the dead ink cartridge and demanding that ralerin replace it plus compensation for his inconvenience.

                        What? Y'all KNOW it could happen.
