Shablagoo 09/02/19 9:59:12 AM #1:	When one steals an apple from an apple hawker, he now has one less apple to sell to a paying customer. When one pirates a game or movie, the seller doesnt lose a copy of it that they could have otherwise sold. That said, piracy is illegal and Ive never done it. Though my older siblings did use Kazaa back in the day. --- "some guys get bored after having sex with a girl....i get bored halfway through having sex with a girl" - No_U_L7 https://i.imgtc.ws/uXfxf6P.png <cite>Shablagoo posted [p:926856423] in The differ...
