The blog outright tells you it's a parody and then you take it seriously when they pretend to "steal" something silly...

There's been a few posts on some of these blogs that explicitly state that they're not lifting to "smash the system," they're lifting because... they just want expensive shit. Which one blog's operator has said she can afford, but chooses not to buy the items and lifts them instead.

Uh, no. I took them from two different tumblrs, sorry if that wasn't made clear because I took the screenshots so that the theme wouldn't be visible. The one with the sock shows no indication of parody.

No offense, but did you look at the rest of the blog? This is pretty obviously a joke. (A pretty good joke, even!)

you play Elder Scrolls or scam people on MMOs.
anyways, I've noticed that when these guys get called on, they try to defend themselves by saying that people do the same by pirating movies, music and games".
there is a diffrence between piracy, which makes a DIGITAL copy of a product, leaving intact and no loss of profits compared to say an actual physical object that costs money to replicate.

Do you guys think they will have tumblr in jail? Has anyone heard of 'cleaning up the evidence'?

it's more of an optomistic, "I hope someone catches them shoplifting and calls them out"

I actually have a little more (emphasis on little) respect for someone who admits the reason they steal is they want shit for free or just love the thrill of stealing. They're still thieving fucks but at least they aren't holier-than-thou at the same time, which is infuriating.
Apropos of this thread, I remember this one.
Somewhere I once lived, there was a "Stoner Road." They eventually just changed the name because people kept stealing it.

Believe it or not, I ended up stealing one of those as well. Well, it was more like my friends discovered it was loose, pulled it up, and since I was the only person with an empty car trunk, I ended up the proud owner of a four-foot-long yellow steel pipe filled with concrete.

Some of them seem to believe they're fighting capitalism and/or The Patriarchy, so there's definitely some crossover between lifters and SJW. I mean, look at all this shit: http://f-ando.tumblr.com/
Fucking seriously?
Despite your display of cunning, physical prowess, and defiance of the system, the Police are going to fuck you up.
Also, your avatar looks like it has a penis and that's funny.

I've heard of people who steal because money's tight and they have no other alternatives. These retards though.....
Number one rule of shoplifting, DON'T EVER POST PICTURES OF YOUR STOLEN SHIT ONLINE WHERE ANYBODY WITH A BRAIN CAN NOTIFY THE POLICE!
And for the record, I do not advocate shoplifting in any way, shape, or form just so we are clear on this!

I'm all for smashing capitalism but I am pretty sure that capitalism can handle a few special snowflakes nicking nail polish or whatever

I used to always tell people on 4chan I was killing homeless people. I always imagined that there were like 5 concerned middle schoolers somewhere arguing with me.
If it didn't have boobs and a penis how would you know that it was queer except for the big word "QUEER" up at the top?
Also I love "Smash capitalism" lol when your stealing reaps great profits for the insurance finance and prison industries.

Are we posting songs about shoplifting now? I got one.
Thinking deeply about the intricacies of the prison-industrial complex takes a lot of mental energy. It's way easier to just steal a cute purse.

I've worked retail. I hate fucking shoplifters because they eat into our bottom line. We'd get a bonus every quarter based on our profits (one of the few perks we'd get) and shrink (retaileese for shoplifters, but also includes other stuff like stuff being misplaced during stocking) would eat into it. People tend to think electronics is what people go for when shoplifting, but as these posts confirm, cosmetics is actually a big one - it's really hard to get an iPad and shove it in your purse, but you can easily shove $500 worth of mascara into your purse. There's usually no security tags or anything fancy like you'd see on an electronics device so it's super easy to steal cosmetics (not that I recommend you do so, because I will hunt you down and make you suffer).
It sucks for the store because if someone steals a $20 bottle of nail polish, they might have to sell $1000 worth of merchandise to recover the lost and that can be tricky (not sure the exact numbers but that's the basic idea).

Seconding the issue of shrinkage being a pain in the ass for a retail employee. I used to work in cosmetics and the shrinkage that we became aware of at stocktaking time was breath taking. Interestingly we weren't even a pricy store: our makeup was around drug store price.
Some of the worst lifters were teen girls from local highschools and it got to the point where we were catching one or two a week who were still wearing their school uniforms. In the end our store called a couple of the schools and named names of students we had caught, frankly the schools were more upset than their parents... possibly due to the thefts taking place while wearing their uniform.
Also one of the things that really used to gross me out was seeing that people stole the "tester" products... Stolen busted ass tester mascara is the best way to get pinkeye!

I personally get a great thrill from dumpster diving. You save good stuff from getting wasted, after all! And it's free! At my university campus, at the end of each semester people throw away so much good stuff at the residence halls...
