Do you never steal?

I mean is there anyone here who can say they never steal anything? Is it as difficult as it seems? Is there someone who doesn't even steal things that they think wouldn't even effect anyone? What if you couldn't afford it and it seemed like not a big deal?

A liar and a thief are the two I dislike the most ....and usually there one in the same obviously .



That being said I do take extra coffee creamers and sugars at the quick mart every now and then ....oh and I also take extra plastic bags from the butcher area at my local store because they fit a pound nicely ......that's all

I steal all digital media: tv shows, movies, music, programs, etc., via torrents. When money was tighter, I'd steal groceries from Jewel - I'd order a bunch of shit from the deli, then shove the sliced cheese and meats inside my chicken dinner bag. They never checked in there for some reason, and if they did, how did that get in there? I don't seem to have much problem stealing from faceless corporations, but I would never steal from individuals. I know it's irrational because there is morally no difference, but fuck you. Don't judge me...

Definitely agree with you there. Stealing from an individual his bread out of his hand in one way or another. But like you said faceless evil corporations? Fuck them! They rape the planet and steal from billions!

Also it is an issue of karma as well....you steal you will be stolen from...it's a bitch

I can't say I've never stolen. Because I have. The last thing I stole was a $140 knife. mainly because they broke half my shit.

Years ago when times were rough several times I went into Walmart grocery shopping, fill a cart completely to the top with anything and everything I needed, 500$+ and walk out to the truck.
I think about it now like what the hell was i thinking.. but desperate times call for desperate measures, no?
I have since grown up.. but I absolutely agree with what you guys said, I'd never do anything of the sort from an individual, or even a smaller company that could actually feel the effect of my dastardly deeds..
Imagine how people would think of you if it were ever discovered..

i'm considering stealing most of my vegetable seeds next year due to shitty, shitty germination rates these last two years.
Where'd you get the seeds? I've been using baker creek for a lot of years now and I've always been super happy with the germination. Only thing that didn't germ in all these years was some banana seeds which they told me would be difficult and they still replaced them. Awesome customer service also.

i've used Johnny's with pretty good luck and Burpee's although expensive, both had good germ. This made me start thinking about ordering seed catalogs now :) {{see, "What have you accomplished today"}}

I was into Limewire for a several years before the lawsuits fucked it up. Got thousands of files of old LP's, CD's, TV shows, movies, etc. A lot of out of print, long forgotten music.
I remember downloading 2 episodes of the Rockford Files and got a local cable company file letter email about 'copyright infringement', blah blah blah. It was a TV show ffs. You could watch if for free on TV and tape it, but don't download it. I got a couple of those emails but they never did anything.

At work, everybody took shit. They had a stocked storehouse. Around Christmas inventory would drop way down because everyone went Christmas shopping there.
It wasn't just the shop floor workers either.
Once, one of the upper level superintendants had a personal pontoon house boat made by paid union workers in the machine shop. He tried to haul a full sized houseboat on a trailer out of the plant on a Saturday morning. Unfortunately, the plant manager came in for something and caught him in the act.

He had to pay for his stainless steel pontoon boat but didn't get fired.

I think management stole more than we did. Nobody checked them, we were spot checked leaving sometimes. But the older guys knew when the spot checks were and how to get around them.

The company was typically greedy with a CEO who was ridiculously overpaid, so fuck them. I felt we were just getting even for all the cuts over the years.

Heh. That reminds me. There was at least one item I grabbed from the foundry rejects bin. I wasn't the only one either. My foreman used his as a big ass ash tray. Mine is used to melt smelly candles into new ones. Not like they'd miss a couple hundred grams of aluminum. Considering the amount of crud that came off a casting as almost powder when grinding it down.

Not anymore. When I was a teen, I burned my mums house down accidentally. My friend offered to put me up for a bit. I robbed money off his dad, I'm still ashamed of it today. In fact I am ashamed to even say how prolific I really was... I am older and wiser now, I won't even drop litter, because I want better for my children, so I am trying to be the change I want to see.

When I was a kid i had stealing problems. Not proud of it and have since changed my way. Stopped that shit a while back. But i do steal a lot of digital media. Music (I support my favorite artist tho), movies, tv shows, e-books, sounds for my music production, programs...all kinds of shit. I used to steal from stores like wal-mart and shit but not anymore. Not bc i had a problem with it but bc i dont need to anymore. But a faceless corporation...fuck em. Id steal millions from them without a second though with no remorse. MY fallout plan is still.....rob a bank. If i ever got in that bad a spot id rob my bank in a second. They steal millions from their customers. I mean shit they've gotten me for thousands of dollars over bullshit overdraft fees. I wouldnt mind getting that money back.......... I wouldn't steal from an individual person or small business tho.



I steal toilet paper and other small things from my job tho. Fuck them, they are rich, selfish assholes who never worked in their lives and comstamly fuck us over. They literally steal money from our paychecks. If i ever saw an opportunity i'd rob them blind.
