If there was a sign on the bike that said 'free bike: Take me' or the $20 note had a post-it attached saying 'free money, keep me' then yes I would have no trouble in taking it.
Just as I would see a difference between finding a book and finding a book saying 'Free Book'. If I was on my university campus and saw an unlabeled book left on a bench I would take it to lost property. If I saw a book saying 'free book', I might take it if it looked like it might be good.
The cage around the cake is not important, the sign is the important part. If I came upon a cake with a sign saying 'Anyone may eat this cake' or with a button saying press here if you wish to eat this cake, and pressing the button gave the message 'You may eat this cake, here is your cake eating number' then I would feel it is ok for me to eat the cake. If the sign said 'Only Bob McMonkey may eat this cake' or a button to press which then asked 'are you Bob Mcmonkey?' y/n, it would be clear that taking the cake and eating it would be wrong, and telling the sign that I was Bob McMonkey would be wrong too, even though it would be easy to do.
You can't steal something that is given to you. If a router gives me bandwidth for free, and the owner runs out of his allowance, well he shouldn't have given it all away should he?
I have a limited supply of cakes, if I put up a sign saying free cake, then I get home and find there is no cake left for me, I can't cry that they all stole the cake. I foolishly gave away my cake. If the sign reads 'Private cake: only for eating by Oktober and his housemates' and it is locked inside a cage, then that would be a different situation. Claiming I didn't know how to configure my cake sign and I just left it with the default 'free cake' message makes no difference,
oh come on tight ass mods, I even had an outer space reference in there and everything. I knew I should have anounced to formation of the Gay Honkeys Association of America.
Well GNAA have had thier way too long! We need to put the power back in the hand of the White Folk! Send those damn Gayniggers back to Outer Space where they came from!
Printers are evil demons sent from another realm to taunt us. They only work as cover, until they are accepted into the office ready for the moment when the most important document ever come along so they can mangle it then taunt the user with bizarre messages and trap their fingers in rollers as they try to extract bit of paper from their innards.
Umm, the worst that could happen is being shot dead.
Tho being beaten with battons, kicked, dragged through the streets by your legs, trampled by horses, tasers, tear gassed, shot in the face with rubber bullets and thrown into a paddywagon all present themselves as opportunities.
What great bravery do we see from right wingers? A bunch of rednecks beating up immigrants and gay kids?
but what's the point of logging the numbers that call it, all that shows is someone called it, it could just be someone with an old yellow pages. I see the point for some commercial phone number list, but why yellow pages? Everyone has a copy free anyway, who would copy it?
homosexuals (which is funny, since they don't reproduce almost by definition) I don't know where you get that idea, statisticly gay people have about 0.5 children each.
Especially when you don't know if the screenshot is from a cutscene or from actual gameplay. Memories of every final fantasy game ever just flooded my mind. Those lying bastards!!
that's what I'm getting at, the marketing on these things call it a catalyst, but really it is not, it is actually a reactant and the real source of the supposed free energy.
They started the Asian portion of WW2 because they invaded China, who then became allied to Russia, while Japan allied with Germany and Italy as they both saw communist Russia and partialy communist China as their main enemies.
Your perspective is overly yank-o-centric, the war started when they attacked China, not when they attacked Britain, Australia, the Dutch East Indies or the USA.
At most you can say that Japan's war on China and Germany and Italy's war on France, Britain and their allies were separate wars at the beginning, but the point at which they become one war would be when Germany invaded the USSR, leading to Russia allying with Britain making it the link between the war in China and in Europe.

No, it is identical, did you not see the pictures?

People always want a bigger cake, but they aren't willing to pay for it.
Gorrilla actually ;)
No, the games is all about seeing how low you can go while you can't find your way home.

Well they did write 'water powered' on hte side in huge letters...
HA! I've never seen a rightwinger face up to line of heavily armed riot police with nothing but a cardboard sign.
But what does that prove? That you have an old copy of the yellow pages around? what's the point?
The right wingers just go for beatting up the people.
And I predict you will need to mash the words up for him, because by then he will be a toothless old man.
YAY!! I was hoping someone would mention the amazingness that is C&C! I love voxels! *Hugs a cute lil voxel*
With that attitude, we would still be communicating by telegraph. No, pony express.
