So I was in Paradise Cafe today for lunch and it was jam packed. There was this guy that was sitting in a booth all by his lonesome and had a sweet lookin laptop. The dude gets a call on his cell phone and decides to take the call outside. I was perplexed because he just left his laptop all by itself. So, its now been 15 minutes and the guy is STILL outside on the phone!
I thought to myself that I really needed a new laptop and this one was there for the taking. Well, there were no cameras in there and it was so busy that no one would notice so I went up to it casually and folded it up and exited the opposite door from him. Like taking candy from a baby. :-)
And I dont feel too bad because the guy didnt have any business or work related stuff on there, just a couple of photo albums. Hey, if he is too stupid to leave his laptop alone for more than 15 minutes then he deserved it. [Reply]

No because he probably lied about where he stole it from, that is why the SDPD did not have a report about that business.. That and the cafe place is full of Spanish speaking people with little grasp of English...
And he would have filed out the form for insurance purposes if he is smart... [Reply]

ANd like I said before, I dont really feel bad because the guy didnt have any important stuff on there. He had like 2 photo albums total (which was like 30 pics tops). Christ dude, go pull your guilt trip on someone else. There are plenty of murderers and rapist out there for you to bug.
If they posted here bragging about their murders and rapes, all of us surely would. [Reply]

Wow, of all posts to get the esoteric card pulled on.
Was it the use of 'elan?' I guess it had to be the use of 'elan.'
Just further proves THAT IF YOU DID STEAL IT they just need to contact the PD and have them do a wide search of all businesses or residents that had a laptop stolen that day.. Then give the PD the link to here and then have them trace your IP and see who the owner is.. Then go and question you, maybe run your credit cards to see if you bought anything in the vicinity to crime(if it happened).. I am sure you would dump the laptop by then, but admitted to on here might be enough... [Reply]

It wasn't a spelling error, you idiot.
So, you would have felt badly if he HAD had 'important stuff' on his/now your laptop? [Reply]
