Pet Peeves

[Painted Calls]

Gentle suggestion is good. But sometimes it’s mean! I am all about helping without attacking. You are one of the good ones, @Overo Mare !

Well thank you! I feel that attacking doesn't ever end well. Especially for the birds. Best to calmly explain what's wrong, the reason why, and what can be done to improve.

Pet peeve..when they umm lock something embarrassing in the cabinet at walmart..eventually you get used to having the clerk unlock the cabinet..but seriously thieves..how pathetic have you got to be to steal certain things..

Because everybody needs certain things but some people can't afford.

Sorry, that sounded like I was justifying stealing. I'm not. But I know there are people in desperate need who know no other way of obtaining things they need. So they steal. And the stores have to lock things up, which inconveniences honest purchasers. I'm not condoning stealing, I'm just saying I understand it.

I would understand it more if need was the only reason people stole. Plenty of people do it just for kicks.

And the more that people steal, the more the prices go up to make up for what was stolen. So us honest people end up paying more

So in the long run, we're the ones that really get ripped off!

But there's no way of knowing people's motives, is there? You can get these items free at .... er, I was going to say Planned Parenthood offices, but a lot of those are getting shut down. I sure wish they were available free somewhere. Prevention should be cheap and easy, then we would not have to worry about abortion, or possibly abused/ unwanted/ neglected/ impoverished children.
