What would you do for a facebook update?

We already know what many people would do for a Klondike Bar, but what would you do to check your facebook account? Would you steal a laptop? This guy did. Read below for the story from MSNBC.

"BRADENTON, Fla. - Sheriff's officers said a 19-year-old man snatched a Starbucks customer’s laptop after being told he could not use it to check his Facebook account. According to officers, the man then grabbed the customer's laptop and ran out of the coffee shop, located in an outlet mall.

Two people in the parking lot tackled the man and held him there until a mall security guard arrived.

The victim got his laptop back and the man was charged Saturday with robbery by sudden snatching, a felony."

This makes me wonder what other random things one may steal if denied access to from a perfect stranger.

Strange dude: Excuse me sir, may I borrow your wife? **awkward silence** No?! I'll show you! **Proceed to beating up of the husband and absconding with the wife.**

I'd like to open this blog up to you faithful readers of Ancient Asian Awesomeness. What other innocent requests can be made hilarious when you insert thievery? I'll give you a hint...Anything involving poo.
