Redietz, suppose you go to a comedy show with someone. And included with the ticket is a complimentary free drink. I know it is usually the other way around...2 drink minimum, but lets just say included a free drink. So the person you are with is a recovering alcoholic that hasn't had a drink in 15 years. If you take and use that person's free drink, have you deprived them of that alcoholic drink that they had absolutely no interest or intent of using?
While visiting your next door neighbor, you notice he received in the mail a free one week membership to the local gym. Your neighbor is 80 years old, 300 pounds and lost his right leg to diabetes. There is no way in hell he is going to use that free one week membership. If you ask him for it and use it, have you deprived him of anything?
What a scumbag...you took your one-legged, 80 year old, 300 lb neighbor's gym membership. THAT is basically what you are arguing.
Let's go back 10-12 years ago, to when I collected some Palms coupon books that had match play coupons from the trash can in the mail room. These people weren't going to use these coupons, as evident by them landing in the trash can. If I use these coupons that they had no intention of, am I depriving them of anything?
