I guess she should know a thing or two about mental illness since she is, herself, a sociopath.

Are you saying that we should start hunting FBI agents instead of playing angry birds?

Chevy Chase: A reminder to those of our viewers who missed our story last week on the influx of so-called Killer Dope in urban areas around the country. "Weekend Update" has been analyzing the samples of marijuana sent to us anonymously all week. We are pleased to report that, so far, the only significant finding has been that if you force a baby squirrel to smoke seven-hundred cannabis joints a day, he will become disoriented, seems to take the laws of self-preservation less seriously, tending to play with his nuts rather than store them.
Once again, if you should come into contact with ANY suspicious cannabis, and wish it be analyzed by "Weekend Update"'s team of research analysts, simply send a small sample immediately to: "Chevy Chase, 857 West 81 Street, New York City".
I think the moral of this story is "don't steal".
The moral of the parent post and the fact that the moderators see it as "insightful" is that slashdot is a bastion of immoral pricks.
It's made of plastic and snapped together like a kid's toy. It's a fucking joke. Boeing has sunk as low as airbus.

That's their chief weapon... incompetence.

Their two weapons are incompetence and lawyers.
Will the citizens of Gotham be safe from arch criminals impersonating the caped crusaders?

Just for the hell of it tell the cashier that you forgot your card at home. They will most likely scan a generic card and give you the same price. The only thing you'll lose is any rebates which are based on cumulative spending and those are usually very small anyway. There's no reason for them to charge you double the price for a package of chicken just because you aren't a card-carrying "member".
I always get a chuckle out of people who have a dozen "discount" tags on their key rings. They might as well wear a shirt that says "fuck me, I'm stupid."
"minimum advertised price"
That, in itself, was once illegal and is still sleazy as hell. Let's say a retailer is overstocked on an item that is becoming obsolete/outdated and he just wants to move the inventory, even at a loss. There's no legitimate reason he shouldn't be allowed to do that. Actually, he can and should do it even if it means that the distributor shuts off his future supply.
That's what I did until I decided that I just wasn't going to carry around a stack of those stupid cards. At that point I just started tell cashiers that I have the card but it's at home. They ALMOST always just use a "store card". One time though, the cashier refused and insisted on charging me $140 instead of $100. I left all my groceries on the belt, walked out and started using a different market.
I didn't go back for several years until one day when I needed just a few items and it was the most convenient place to get them. They had since dropped their hardass policy about the cards. They lost more than $25k in sales on me. I smile now when I read stories about Shaw's Supermarkets being on the verge of bankruptcy. Assholes.
