'It's All About the Lauriers'
A gratuity imposed on persons who have lost items containing money, e.g., wallets and purses, by the finder of said items. The gratuity is to be removed prior to turning in the lost item.

This is especially justified if you have been robbed yourself, as it may help you to pay the rent.

Finder's Fee Calculation

The finder's fee is calculated on a sliding scale:

  • No ID within the wallet: 100% of cash in item
  • 1-2 pieces of ID: 75% of cash in item
  • 3 pieces of ID: 50% of cash in item

If You Lose Something (e.g. Your Wallet)

  • You are clearly stupid
  • Obviously anyone who leaves their wallet somewhere wants the money stolen out of it
  • I mean let's be serious

People Who Think This is Acceptable Behaviour

  • People lacking empathy
  • People unable to understand the concept of reciprocity
  • Actually that is not how reciprocity works at all, because hey you're never going to see that guy again. I think what you're talking about is karma, and seriously, who actually believes in that?
  • People who fail to see how if everyone behaved similarly things would be pretty crappy
  • Jerky thieves

People Who Don't

  • Pretty much everybody who has a vague comprehension of the social contract
  • People who want to impress others on the internet

It Just Won't Stop!

Signo was quickly persuaded that she had acted wrongly, but some continued to defend her old position. The debate became an absurd meta-debate when accusations of hypocrisy and unnecessarily poopieheadish language were lodged against the critics of finder's fees. Some are even whipping out that old chestnut, subjective morality!

The only appropriate response was to post the themes to 70s exploitation movies.

Actually, that was an annoying and dumb response.

Yet appropriate, nonethless.
