Not our fault, for once

[sniffnoy]

So some kids from Henderson come down here while we're playing Smash (64), accusing us of stealing their controller. For once, they're wrong; the controller they claim we stole is one we've had since the beginning of the year. So after much talking, all agreeing that indeed, we have had this a long time - and especially once they say theirs was only stolen yesterday, we tell them repeatedly nope, we don't have it.

They must have asked just where it was - just as we were starting a new game, with Aaron as DK. Wai Lee says, wait, let's stop, so we can demonstrate where it is. (I, as Kirby, actually drill Wai Lee for a few damage before I realize what's going on.) He then grabs Aaron's controller and starts hitting the L button repeatedly.

"Where is it?! We don't know! We don't know! We don't know!" Several repetitions. Then he switches to down-smashing. "Ahhhh my butt's itchy! My butt's so itchy! Look how itchy my butt is!"

One of the guys says, "I really hate Tufts House," and they go away.

EDIT 14 Oct 2007: Aaron corrects me - One of the guys mutters, "God, I hate Tufts House", and they go away.

In some states, there are laws saying that if you take a piece of property and productively use it for a certain period of time, you become the legitimate owner of it.

That's more of on the order of several years, though, no? :-/

Its 15 for land in Vermont.

What about money?

Does this include stealing money and placing it into a 15 year mutual fund? I would consider that productive. Plus, legally at least, I think it would be possible to prove that you have proactively dedicated it to 15 years of required productivity in this particular case.

A definition of "Money" is: "11. property considered with reference to its pecuniary value." --Dictionary.com

This post overflows with win.

I'd forgotten how much I disliked Hendu until this. :P
