To the jerk or jerks who were behind me in line at the grocery store and stole the bottle of wine I had left—you people are soulless sons of bitches! I had forgotten the wine at the cashier’s for less than five minutes, but it was already gone when I ran back for it. You know what? I would have turned in something like that, knowing that it was probably someone’s Saturday evening treat—maybe even all they could afford! Who takes someone’s wine? That’s just terrible! Is that what the average Nova Scotian has come to, due to this stupid recession—stealers of other people’s momentarily misplaced wine? —Disgusted with NS Lack of Honour

Pretty sad, OB. Let’s just hope they got a headache from it. And maybe sour guts. I’m not much for wine, myself. It dries me out. But it is a very effective anti-grump.
Though it sucks that your wine was stolen I don’t think the “average Nova Scotian” steals.
had this happen to me with potatoes at the tiger…
of course, …
I actually expect that from GT goers.
not as bad as wine but really, what’s a chowder without potatoes?
so I had to buy em again.
This is the most legitimate bitch ever. What kind of soulless piece of shit steals someone else’s booze, and who abandons an innocent bottle of wine like that ob, I call that alcohol abuse. This is a sad sad story.
hmmmm, here’s a thought. how many glasses or bottles of wine does it take to make a wino?
What did you expect? There are douchebags out there that break 300 dollar window for 1.75 in change, and you seriously thought that your unattended liquor would be safe? What a rube! Its a shame it can’t be like that, but anonymity makes assholes out of people.
Was it a red wine? If so, when they open that sucker and if there’s a fruit fly within a mile radius, it’ll be in their glass within five minutes. You can only hope OP that the wanker is having a glass of merlot insecta right now.
With the price of booze as high as it is, I tend to guard my hooch like a pitbull with grape-sized hemorrhoids. Still, it sucks mightily that some sleazesack would do that.
Sorry. I’m like a chocoholic, but for booze.
I usually get my booze after getting groceries.
