Appropriate time for: “If you see a shoplifter, no you didn’t.”

[-] socsa@piefed.social 15 points 1 month ago

What if the shoplifter has a really nice butt?

[-] Gaspar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 38 points 1 month ago

Then you saw a person with a really nice butt. Who wasn't doing anything.

[-] socsa@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago

But like, my silence buys me a solid glance, right?

[-] Wogi@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Don't make it weird man.

[-] CooperRedArmyDog@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

Absolutly not, your scielence is what a normal person does, the glance is creepy

Then they stole my heart

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

I would never tell, but I wonder if people, employees, take the charge instead of the big corpo.

[-] superkret@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

No, it's just budgeted into the prices.

Friendly reminder that if you saw someone stealing food, no you didn't.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 23 points 1 month ago

Best case they're going to eat it.

Worst case you can buy warm coat meat off them later in a flat roof pub so they can buy heroin.

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

People need heroin too.

[-] dunidane 70 points 1 month ago

The last few times I shoplifted it was by accident. The last being that I had to get a new ID from the DMV, they gave me a paper copy, and said they would mail me a normal ID. 30 days later it has still not arrived and grocery stores started to say they don't accept the paper copy after 30 days. Went back to the DMV and they said it would take up to 90 days. I asked if I could get a picture ID until it arrives, to which they told me that would downgrade my license and therefore I wouldn't be able to legally drive then.

Anyways, I wound up checking out at Kroger, putting items on the conveyor, and they asked for my ID, I gave them my paper copy and they called a manager and blah blah blah all because there was wine in the order. The manager told the cashier it was acceptable so long as it was within 30 days, thankfully neither of them knew the date as it was 34 days after the issue date, they accepted it and I put the bags in my cart and went on my way. When I got to the car I realized several items in my cart were not in grocery bags, I never took them out of the cart when I got distracted by the ID bologna. So none of those items got paid for.

My favorite part about it is someone has to acknowledge that someone was of age 4 days prior to purchase alcohol... So what black magic would I be performing to go from 35 4 days ago to under 21 then. If it could have been forged now, I could have forged it then.

Note the DMV stated if they printed a new copy it would change the issue dates and therefore start the 90 day wait over again. Fucking mess

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Is this the California DMV? They are so ridiculously worthless. The DMV sloths in Zootopia were spot on, except they didn't depict the intentional malice.

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Nah, this one is Tennessee

[-] NounsAndWords@lemmy.world 67 points 1 month ago

The only shoplifting I see is the shops that keep arbitrarily lifting their prices.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

more laconic, more punny

EDIT :

The only shoplifting I see is the shops lifting their prices arbitrarily

variant keeping arbitrarily

[-] ReCursing@lemmings.world 53 points 1 month ago

The BBC editorial team showing a woman stealing a bottle of wine, rather than, like, food or something

One time I saw an obvious homeless man grab a pizza slice. He ate it in the aisle I was in, locking eyes with me. I was kind of looking through him, because he was standing where I needed to grab the item I wanted.

And as I got closer, he said, "I'll pay for it." And I had to explain, "Bro I'm just trying to get some soup I don't know what you're talking about."

[-] davidagain@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

That's the way.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

We’re combing the desert.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

It's okay everyone, I speak jive. They said "by golly, I haven't seen anything".

[-] socsa@piefed.social 40 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I will never see someone stealing food.

[-] Assman@sh.itjust.works 35 points 1 month ago

You guys ever just mind your own fucking business? I'm really into minding my own fucking business.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 month ago

For some reason, I thought you were getting furious at all the folks calling out the British museum

[-] Assman@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

Maybe I was, maybe I wasn't.

These fucks think I’d tell them even if I did 😂. I didn’t even snitch on shoplifters when they were stealing from the place I worked, you do you and I’ll do me.

[-] kamenlady@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

I did the same.

I didn't snitch on shoplifters at work and i shoplifted myself long before that.

The funny thing was, i saw another person noticing the shoplifting - they saw me too. We just nodded and went our ways.

These shoplifters had a double endorsement on that day.

[-] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 29 points 1 month ago

hey stealing is a proud British tradition stop denigrating our traditions.

[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago

Notice they used an image of wine, not a more basic foodstuff. That's called Manufacturing Consent.

[-] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 month ago

Why are the pyramids in Egypt?

Because they're too large to fit in the British Museum.

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 21 points 1 month ago

I never saw nuffin narc

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

Snitches get stitches. Don't rat people out.

[-] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 month ago

It always is amusing when British people accuse Roma of being thieves when they can't even have the English language without stealing widely from others.

[-] anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 month ago

Stealing words can only be as bad as piracy, the original owners are not deprived of what they owned.

[-] DragonsInARoom@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

You must be over 1000000 years old to see that happen

[-] nifty@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Nah, just your humble reincarnated Babylonian horror

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

And with all that going for you, it's hard to be humble!
