someone stole my trash can . why on earth would someone do that ? a totally pointless act ! the city will literally give you one for free . i do n't even get it . some people will steal anything , i guess . a store employee once told me they had to keep certain things by the checkout or they walked ! yep . the lack of integrity of some people is shocking . it sure is ! i got caught ( when i was about 8 ) bouncing a ping pong ball while leaving a toy store . the owner took me home and my dad gave me a hiding . never again ! a little pain goes a long way . oh yes . while other teenagers were thieving i was being a very good little girl ! hope you get a replacement for your trash can .
