Kinda reminds of this time I walked out of a store to find some jack#$% sitting on the hood of MY new car while talking to some of his friends. Guess he should've been free to do it. I'm the idiot that left it outside in plain view with no Pit Bull attached, silly me. Quoting from the movie "history of the world", "These raisins are mine, I paid for them, go get your own.
