Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - Is pointing to make a steal wrong?

The other day I was dorking around at an LBS and happened to notice a pair of Titec H Bars hanging like 10' up on the wall. Just out of curiosity, I asked the owner how much he would want for them. He's like, "Oh hell, just give me $10 and we'll call it good". Unfortunately, I didn't have any cash on me at the time. Flash forward, I've got like $15 in my wallet right now and I'm gonna go get me some H-bar goodness. The question is, should I just point at the bars and say "I want those," or grab the ladder and get them myself?

Pointing to make a steal in any situation is just plain wrong! :p

You should ride into the store on your fix, and while doing a skid-salute, point at the bars.

Then steal them.

come on man, just grab them ****ers like you already own em

killcrush, i got a pretty good laugh out of this. i just wanted to let you know that before deathhare says something to get this thread closed.

So the other day at work my boss comes up and says "You can't wear those band shirts to the office" and I'm all "**** you dad Slayer rules and I didn't want to work at your ****ty insurance company anyways" and he gets all mad and takes my housekeys and says "your mom is going to be so disappointed" and I'm all "I don't care Mom sucks she won't let me eat Milky Ways for dinner even though I'm 25 and can make my own decisions" and then dad's all "When are you moving out anyways" and I'm all "I don't want to live in your ****ty suburbs anyways" and that really showed him who's boss.

So what kind of bullhorns should I put on my Pista?

Yo, it was a way for the OP to see the wrongness of his ideas.

So wait, your post was supposed to be a "bad idea?"

I cant just stick my perverted neck out for the flame sword.

Titec H bars are ugly.

If h-bars become the next fixed gear fashion accessory I'm going to slit my wrists.

umm..........................yes

My grandaddy taught me that it's low-class to point with your finger. Use a laser pointer w/ one of those cool tips that spells out "I *heart* U".

bewbs? omg I has them!

...and yes you can steal home

"I'll steal your honey like I stole your bike"

I don't think you can in softball. Or little league. I don't know about kickball. So it kind of depends.

Hell no you can't steal home in softball. Your drinking rights will be revoked for taking the game too seriously.

It's legal in kickball.

Oh god. Instant classic!!

Good to know. I wanna join one of the local kickball teams but I think my wife would make me choose between bike polo and kickball. I don't think my wife would let me participate in two dumb sports while she corralled the youngsters.

bike kickball. DUH.

Go in there and buy a few accessories and at the counter as they're ringing up the sale tell the guy as a matter of factly to throw in that handlebar hanging on that wall like you're buying some condoms.

I'll be taking these Huggies and...uh...whatever cash you got.

"I'll steal your honey like I stole your bike"

LFO for the....lose?

Arguing on the internet is like riding the velodrome in the special olympics....

Man...I was really hoping this to turn into the tytti appreciation thread

many lulz were enjoyed.

It's legal in kickball.

In the kickball league I play in, all steals are illegal. You can't even lead off.

i thought kickball was more of a solo sport, to be honest. i guess it could be considered one on one.

They didn't point back and scream 'hey that dude's stealing a girls bike!'?

OK, I'm totally confused about the OP.

I'm sure that if the shop is real busy, they might not have time to get the ladder and retrieve the bars themselves. You might have to wait. I'm sure that if you are real nice and polite, they'll eventually climb up there and get them for you if the bars are too high to reach.

Getting the ladder yourself, especially without asking, might not make them real happy considering the insurance issues.

why couldn't you steal a good bike? hell, that's not even a pretty colour, and the top tube's all bent up..
.

+1 for bewbies, and ultima

i thought kickball was more of a solo sport, to be honest. i guess it could be considered one on one.

Are you thinking of dodgeball? last time I checked kickball was a team sport. Granted the last time I played kickball was about six years ago in high school gym class. But you know whats a really sweet game? four square. that game is the ****.

If you really want those handlebars hanging way up high on the wall, firstly ask to see a Brooks B-17 sadlle, pretend to be interested especially in the Honey colored one. Be sure to comment on the fine craftsmanship and the cool rivets along the back.

Then, right in the middle of the guys sales pitch about how comfortable Brooks saddles are once broken in, and the finer points of Proofriding it religiously every 6 months...haul off and chuck that 2 pound assbeater up at aforementioned handlebars, thus dislodging them from their perch.

As the bars and the Brooks come back down to earth, the sales guy will most likely be more concerned about retrieving the Brooks that has landed down behind the floor pumps along the far wall. As he scampers after it, you can collect your new handlebars and be on your way.
