Stupidity deserves to be punished, amiright? It's one thing to consider negative consequences of stupidity not being worthy of pity but it's quite another thing to think it should be punished.

Forgetting something or being distracted =/ stupidity.

Stop being a cunt and the OP should return the phone.

This is why the Black Plague needs to make a return.
Black plague exists all over the planet, don't sleep in any mountain caves if you want to avoid it!

To address what you said though, carelessness is just a form of stupidity. If someone isn't careful enough to keep track of their belongings, who's fault is that but their own? How can any decent person sit here and argue otherwise? You're essentially saying that people should be expected to look after people who ARE CAPABLE of taking care of themselves but choose not to.


This is why humanity is doomed! If we just let natural selection do its job for a few hundred years place wouldn't suck so much.

You'd make that person's day if you just gave them back their phone. There's already a serious shortage of people with common decency in the world. No need to contribute to the problem.

Also, I would recommend just giving the phone back. If a iphone is such a find that you can't bear to part with it in order to do the right thing for a stranger I suggest you get a job, then you can buy your own phone.

Why get a job when "a friend finds" an item that has such high resale value?

Your logic is flawed.

If the person who lost his/her found expected other people to find their phone for them, that might make your argument valid.
Someone taking someone that doesn't belong to them is something entirely different.
Where are you getting this "people should be expected to look after people who ARE CAPABLE of taking care of themselves but choose not to" from?
And the latter part in bold is a simplistic and incorrect take on human nature. There's a difference between rewarding stupidity and condemning people for it. Throwing the whole "survival of the fittest" (which is a misapplied concept anyway) thing into this doesn't make sense.

Yes it's the person's fault for leaving their phone. It's also the fault of the person taking who took the phone. Regardless of the carelessness of the person who left their phone the OP is still trash if he doesn't return the phone.
To reiterate: I'm not saying he's trash for not seeing the phone and making an effort to return it to the rightful owner. He's trash for taking something that doesn't belong to him and keeping it.

You're an idiot if you walk through a dark alley in a dangerous part of the city but that doesn't take away the responsibility of the person who ends up occupying your anal cavity.

I'd like to discuss this over a cup of coffee if you have Skype by the way.

The Black Plague exists everywhere. In fact it occupies 50% of my bloodstream. Damn negroidians.

Tasslehof is just angry that he could never afford an iphone so he is projecting his dreams of finding one in an airport bathroom.

Dude is serious IRL scum I wonder how much stuff he steals from his job.

Seriously I agree the noble thing to do would be return it.
We have fallen quite far as a society when the threshold for nobility has dropped to the point of returning a lost phone. That's just something people should do because it's the right thing to do.
