Skull farking? I like the way you think, sir.

Ya can't blame the hustla fo gettin' money! (new window)

That's what they do, baby!

Beat em all into a wheelchair with a gummy stick!

My only hope is that fellow in the picture will go to jail and have something similar inserted in his slot.

You know, at this point in history, 15 years into general access to the internet, you would think that local NEWS ORGANIZATIONS would list their freakin' location on the index page.

I really do hope they catch that scum bag for stealing from the box. However, the owner needs to come up with a better idea than an honors system. It seems just too easy.

It's "the Internet." There is only one. It's capitalized.

/so there

There's a card carrying Republican if Ive ever seen one

to be fair, the guy was only stealing to donate to McCain

It's really just a series of tubes.

The guy works out in the fields in a damn wheelchair, that is somebody that hasn't given up and is making the best of his life. Very impressive.

Did you see the size of those radishes? Or were they turnips?
Sticky substance with a nascar hat.


lols

Why is he red?

That's a moose on the front of his shirt. What do you bet it is related to Palin?

Unsurprisingly, the perp looks like he's wearing the ultimate "I'm a douche" accessory, a bluetooth earpiece.

How much you wanna bet this guy is not religious and doesn't believe in God?

Lee451: How much you wanna bet this guy is not religious and doesn't believe in God?
You fail.

My guess is he lives in a trailer park, chain smokes Marlboros, voted for Bush and claims to be a god fearing patriot.

The bluetooth headset just perfects the outfit.

douches like this really believe this stuff, in spite of volumes of data on the Democrat leanings of racists and felons.

Kinda sad that any little story for the last 8 years was blamed on Bush, and the idiot brownshirts have to direct that energy at half the nation now...

But all he's demonstrating is his bigotry.

My guess is he's an unemployed banker. Or, maybe an employed banker.

He needs one of these.
Dunno how to sort out the paying customers from the thieves though.

Might be funny enough to not care.

With the money he paid for cameras that take such high quality pictures, couldn't he have paid at least minimum wage to some kid to make sure THE CASH BOXES WERE NOT UNATTENDED?

WRONG. The FAIL is taking something that isn't yours.

Didn't anyone teach you right from wrong?

All the roadside produce stands here in upstate NY use unattended cash boxes. I can't say I've ever seen anyone trying to fish money out of them like that. Honestly, how much could that kinda theft possibly be worth? You'd probably find more under your sofa cushions. Jeez, stealing a gimp's turnip money. That's pretty low.

"Lee451: How much you wanna bet this guy is not religious and doesn't believe in God?"

I'm not religious and i don't believe in God. doesn't mean i've ever felt the need to steal from someone else.

Btw, if you need a hand of your holier then thou high horse, i can lend you a ladder.

The stealing is the secondary FAIL. The primary FAIL is leaving the money you need to survive in unguarded boxes. If a guy in a wheelchair makes a bad business decision, is it somehow virtuous?

Yeah, that's it. You must be an FBI profiler.

/ok, I really think you must just be an idiot
//and obviously a disciple of your messiah Obama

I sense a meme coming on. If I had any photo shop skills, I'm sure I could make this funny somehow.

Fine, wanna split hairs and play semantic games? It's a mistake to assume that assholes wont steal what is not theirs. It's a crime ( ie far worse than a mistake ) to steal what isn't yours.

You speak as though that person deserved to be ripped off which makes me think that you would rip someone off if you thought you could get away with it....and feel justified in doing so.

Congrats, you are officially a really shiatty person.

libbynomore2: It's a mistake to assume that assholes wont steal what is not theirs.

What's worse, he thinks we should assume that EVERYONE'S a thieving asshole all of the time. Trust is stupid, everyone's out to fark you over.

I got that message, too. The old "they were asking for it" line.

libbynomore2: You speak as though that person deserved to be ripped off which makes me think that you would rip someone off if you thought you could get away with it

Nope. I just know that if I depend on something for my survival, I would do more than leave it in a box with a sign saying "Please don't steal, I'm in a wheelchair. KTHXBAI"

/lives around there

If the fall, stands like these are the norm here, selling everything from watermelon to pumpkins to bales of hay. I've always wondered how much theft there is, but whatever revenue they get must still make it worth it.

I don't know the guy's name either, but I'll bet he drinks Bud Lite.

I'll bet he's right on the money. And I don't support Obama.

From the replies in the thread, it looks like there are actually places where this the norm. The only unattended cash boxes I have seen are for parking lots and camp sites and the cash boxes have designs that make them seemingly impossible to steal from.

Did someone say palsy?

I guess I don't understand the logistics of this.
Are these stands just left unattended?
If that's the case, then why not just steal the WHOLE BOX?

A: a tweaker, IMHO

The honor system is one of the few things people want to believe in. Unfortunately many people can't be trusted anymore with anything. Morals and respect are the new dinosaurs.

Probably because it's securely attached to the stand? Using the stick may take a minute, using tools to detach the entire box may take 10 minutes.
