    Hey so Larceny is taking and carrying away of anything with value, grand larceny is items over a certain value.

    But I also didn’t know and went to check Wikipedia what larceny was, and I found this absurd example which has me thinking about donuts in new and exciting ways.

    I want to go and rotate a donut around not its centre of mass, but around an axis through its torus, off-centre from its centre of mass, because apparently that is not a larceny.

    • If it’s not taken from its original position, how is it even theft? 🤨 The only kind of theft I can imagine that would not require moving the thing being stolen is squatting, and that is a very boiled down way of thinking about squatting.
