You are a burglar but you only steal things whose loss slightly inconveniences your victims.

What do you steal?

Ok, what could you steal from someone that would only slightly inconvenience them?

A toffee?

Now that could depend on the person and if it was their last one it could be a big inconvenience! 😉 To you or I it may be a slight inconvenience!

Please lay out the case for the loss of a toffee being a big inconvenience.

The person had a very tight budget and couldn't afford to get another one...just a guess of course. Not everyone would consider the loss of a toffee a small inconvenience.

Sorry. I should have said lay out a 'convincing' case.

Read it again before being a critic. Don't you understand the loss of a toffee could be a loss that some people couldn't replace?

You could even admit you weren't correct! 😉

Having posed the question theoretically, sir, it is in your power to prove your case physically by stealing Rusty's toffee and observing the following inconvenience caused be it slight or atomic.

Actually I don't even eat toffee, was just trying to make the point that it may not be easily replaced by some folks! 😉

in this case,
the toffee would be an archived toffee, for display purposes only
i imagine in yer house it would be upon the same shelf with commemorative hockey pucks, goalie masks, broken sticks, and a small jar of scavenged teeth from yer conquests
and yer absolutely correct
one would be hard pressed to replace such a toffee
i mean,
it was right next to the dented puck that crushed gretsky's face

this is an important toffee
having it stolen would be a matter of national security

You're missing the point as usual rookie.

Their Bible.

Many people keep birth certificates, babtisms, confirmation paper work in their bibles so for those it would be a very big inconvenience.

I keep my birth certificate in my sock drawer.

For some reason it belongs there.
