What does girlfriend steal?

She steals gourmet food items! Whenever we go food shopping she comes up on all kinds of stuff like expensive cheeses, truffle oils, packages of cured meats and any other costly goodies she can get her hands on. It doesn’t really bother me too much; mostly I just laugh at her and then end up enjoying the spoils. But imagine if she got rolled up for boosting cheese! Should I convince her to stop this practice of just keep eating all that prosciutto?

what are her methods?

Heave Ho, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 13:50 (eighteen years ago)

As long as it's not your heart.

Tuomas, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 13:51 (eighteen years ago)

she jsut shoplifts. puts the stuff in her bag. she's good at it. i don't even realise she's doing it most of the time.

it sounds fun, but this can only end badly.

jism thievery, the next step in radical feminism. it's a long-term game plan.

darraghmac, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 13:58 (eighteen years ago)

she could move on to bigger stuff and get herself and more importantly - you into trouble

when she's stealing jism it's usually onto a bigger stuff

ken c, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:00 (eighteen years ago)

i have never seen her stealing other things. just food items. i guess because the risk is low. no alarm thingys on cheese.

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:04 (eighteen years ago)

she has good taste though. we make some good tapas with a lot of this stuff.

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:07 (eighteen years ago)

This is more common then i thought.

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:37 (eighteen years ago)

jism

haha I was just coming here to say "precious bodily fluids"

She may also be plotting to poison my water supply with fluoride.

kenan, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:40 (eighteen years ago)

my precious bodily fluids are a gift that needs to be givin. so is not stealing

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:45 (eighteen years ago)

your girlfriend should serve as a lesson to shoplifters everywhere: steal the good stuff cause you're going to jail either way.

GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:46 (eighteen years ago)

haha i know someone who was caught stealing cheese and arrested, it was very stupid. i'm sure your girlfriend will at least have the good sense to not argue with the police about how it not morally wrong to steal food, resist arrest, and refer to herself as a political prisoner.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 14:50 (eighteen years ago)

this seems like a dumb thing.

Get girlfriend psychiatric help before she fucks up her life /funhater

i also forgot to close /funhater tag

deej, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:07 (eighteen years ago)

if you guys are going to steal stuff it should be stupid pointless things. like when my friend stole the hueg poster of the side of a Togos

deej, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:07 (eighteen years ago)

i'm pretty sure if i asked her not to do this anymore she would just stop.

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:08 (eighteen years ago)

have people been stealing a lot of milk lately?

the "money = cheese" metaphor: origins revealed

elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:19 (eighteen years ago)

though i am partial to the "money = cake" metaphor, because then you can refer to the crumpled up 1's in yr pocket as "scratch"

elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:20 (eighteen years ago)

can your girlfriend steal a cake for me?

elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:21 (eighteen years ago)

if it fits in hand bag

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:22 (eighteen years ago)

i wonder how much money the average whole-foods loses each month on stolen cheese? it doesn't seem an uncommon problem, so I guess they probably account for it in their bottom line somewhere.

the only cheese i steal from the supermarket is an extra lump of feta cheese, which I eat while preparing my lunch at the salad bar.

The heroin-cold medicine combination known as "cheese" has not yet traveled north from Dallas to Collin County, area narcotics investigators say. But that hasn't stopped suburban users from applying the catchy name to their heroin.

elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:39 (eighteen years ago)

cheese is my heroin

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:42 (eighteen years ago)

that's because when casein protein breaks down, the casein peptides react to the opiate receptors in yr brain! so yea, cheese = heroin.

elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:45 (eighteen years ago)

In ancient Athens, there was a designated area for the production of cheese in the market and in ancient Sparta; a whole ritual took place on the context of cheese theft that formed part of the military training.

she is training for war!!

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:46 (eighteen years ago)

The worst that will happen is they will tell you to put it back and never come in again.

Big deal!

roxymuzak, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 15:52 (eighteen years ago)

oh my GOD, my fiancee totally does this, too!!!

she grabs cheese from whole foods!!

oh haha i didn't see i had been quoted upthread.

moonship journey to baja, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 16:08 (eighteen years ago)

do you tell her to stop doing it?

carne asada, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 16:09 (eighteen years ago)

i would. it's just kind of...dorky.

paulhw, Wednesday, 31 October 2007 20:06 (eighteen years ago)

why not steal the whole cow

El Tomboto, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:49 (eighteen years ago)

where do you live that there it is not a "big deal" to face charges?? i am genuinely curious?

this seems like such a stupid thing to get busted for. i would be embarrassed.

bell_labs, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:50 (eighteen years ago)

Not even I, with my MONSTROUS THUNDERCOCK, can successfully smuggle a cow in my pants without someone noticing.

HI DERE, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:50 (eighteen years ago)

If you're going to steal, go with the plausible deniability route - one item left at the back of the basket or underneath or something. "Oh, god, missed that. Lemme pay for it."

milo z, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:52 (eighteen years ago)

that does work

carne asada, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:55 (eighteen years ago)

Dan, that needs to be in the FAQ or something. xxpost

Trayce, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:56 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, "cheese casually dropped into coat pocket", as a strategy, has an absent-minded plausability that "cheese tucked into underwear" notably lacks.

elmo argonaut, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:58 (eighteen years ago)

Question, do you only steal pre packaged cheese or do you ask them to cut you a chunk at the deli counter and then steal it?

Is is wrong to ask for a tasting sample of cheese before stealing a hunk?

Ed, Thursday, 6 December 2007 20:59 (eighteen years ago)

i wonder if you could construct a wearable undergarment from individually wrapped kraft slices, tho?

elmo argonaut, Thursday, 6 December 2007 21:00 (eighteen years ago)

That is not really cheese though.

She stole cheese. He stole crackers. Until one day, they were arrested. Now, things are going to get a whole lot tastier in Burbank County Jail. Snack Time. Who breaks a butterfly upon a wheel?

not bathing?

existential eggs (Abbott), Monday, 12 October 2009 19:39 (sixteen years ago)

of course!

steamed hams (harbl), Monday, 12 October 2009 19:40 (sixteen years ago)

That's not quite cheese though. Smearing cheese uponst oneself creat a more genuine cheese odor aura.

tie me up, dress in drag, and read to me from the bible (kenan), Monday, 12 October 2009 19:41 (sixteen years ago)

imo not bathing = more ham than cheese

my dog smells like ham if he doesn't get a bath every couple weeks.

Gucci Manatee (carne asada), Monday, 12 October 2009 19:54 (sixteen years ago)

maybe but the first thing i think when a really stinky guy (or girl) sits in front of me on a bus is that he smells like aged cheese

steamed hams (harbl), Monday, 12 October 2009 19:54 (sixteen years ago)

I never get to "aged cheese"; usually my brain stops at "old ham" and/or "hot garbage".

My girlfriend and I have been sneaking into a lot of movies lately. We also lift things from the market. Good team.

Nate Carson, Monday, 12 October 2009 22:02 (sixteen years ago)

I always called sneaking into movies (pay for one, watch two) "shotgunning" movies. I have had several partners in crime on this. The way to make the crime feel victimless is to pay for the little indie movie that needs your money, and sneak into the one (or two, maybe, on a Sunday) that is a big-studio crapfest that isn't living or dying on your dollar, anyway.

tie me up, dress in drag, and read to me from the bible (kenan), Monday, 12 October 2009 22:07 (sixteen years ago)

I am forever trying to get my upstanding Canadian sweetheart to shotgun movies with me, to no avail.

kate78, Monday, 12 October 2009 22:16 (sixteen years ago)

That was the only time my parents would take us to the movie theater, if there was a second movie worth sneaking into. This is silly but OTOH they had five kids and paying for seven movie tickets on one income is no small thing.

existential eggs (Abbott), Monday, 12 October 2009 22:54 (sixteen years ago)

Choosing to have five kids and one income is also kind of silly but we're all pretty cool people so it worked out.

existential eggs (Abbott), Monday, 12 October 2009 22:55 (sixteen years ago)

My parents recently discovered this trick. Which is awesome. Except that they are also the old couple that talks during the film...

Now that the GF and I have "shotgunned" a few, she's obsessed with sneaking in entirely. I'm not seeing that as a worthwhile risk, but I applaud her sense of debauchery.

Nate Carson, Monday, 12 October 2009 23:12 (sixteen years ago)

A lot of places started checking your tickets at the entrance to the particular theater now, instead of just the lobby.

Gucci Manatee (carne asada), Monday, 12 October 2009 23:24 (sixteen years ago)

Surely the big multiplexes can't afford enough staff to man every theater door constantly.
