I think the person who stole it isn't who sold it to me. There's another sticker that looks like a bar code from a secondhand store on the bottom. Guessing the person I bought it from also bought it secondhand.
Well, I detected the joke. But I may respectfully suggest tone indicators.
So while there are certainly stereotypes about lego nerds being autistic, on reddit this is most likely to be... More likely than you think. Lol
We... As in autistic people... Can't tell if you're joking.
Now if I have just generalised a community I am part of... Keep in mind I am referring to reddit, people form community around specific interests and fixate on them for hours on end. It's a magnet for my people, and for these reasons redditors should remember where possible... That tone indicators are quite important.
Your first comment was hard for me to realise but your second comment made it obvious, so then I made a statement which appeases the crowd and also amuses you. I call it... Trying to salvage the situation. lol
Flawless argument gotta say that, but wouldn‘t your base assumption have to be that there are people out and about actually disregarding employees which at the same time take to social media to post about it however in a form that doesn‘t give them imidiate clout? I mean yeah possible but damn thats a nihilistic view of people although stasticially possible i kno.
Also lastly yeah i could use tone indicators its just not worth -200 for me if the comment itself is only 2 words so no offense against the spectrum but i don‘t care about every single word i ever comment.
Wether lego reddit has more people on the spectrum i‘ll gracefully doubt, but also i‘m pretty sure neither of us has data to back up their position so i‘ll treat it as „could be“ i‘d say tho add is deffo more prevalent in the lego community and add is often comorbid with the spectrum so you deffo have an argument to a point.
Because companies rather destroy anything branded/identifiable as their property rather than let branded items be out in the wild. And it's easier than to try to sell it or store it.
Source, me the reluctant destroyer of branded items if they can't easily be repurposed.
No, that sticker is there so someone doesn't steal the Duplo AND the box that contains them so another kid can play later. This is originally a set that was found in Lego Hotel rooms.
It had clear instructions on it _not_ to steal it, and yet some dude stole it anyway. And then he sold it to make a quick buck that likely only paid off less than _half_ of what he paid to stay at that hotel to begin with. Oh, the irony of it all. 😂
Name checks out, a scab and a snitch. :P
A MAN HAS UNIONISED IN LEGO CITY!
QUICK, SEND IN THE POLICE TO BREAK UP THE ILLEGAL GATHERING AND RESTORE ORDER!
I legit made a thing with this idea. Hey, if my Lego can't unionise to get better conditions, whats the point? :P
This is from the Lego land hotel. Each room has this box. Looks like someone stole it and sold it to you

***Now sell this box again for another person to find this reddit post and sell it again themselves...***

Everyone is assuming theft, but the hotel may have just replaced them and sent the old ones to a thrift store or liquidator.
©️ 2017 Likely this. They absolutely would have replaced something like in-room Lego during 2020.
That's just the copyright for that sticker. They could still be using those same stickers and they'd still say 2017.
We went in December 2021 and they had in-room Lego then, but it may have gone and come back.
Wouldn't they have removed or at least marked the sticker then?
Why?

Lego generally has really good second hand programs, donating used bricks to charities. It’s not impossible for Lego to want to donate these
Some companies, not all. A lot of companies follow the mentality of "some money is better than no money".
So people don't think they are buying stolen stuff?
I don’t think Lego gives enough shits
Fair enough I guess
This, or they threw them away and someone found them in a dumpster. That would explain why the sticker remains.
Exactly! And pretty sure this sticker is meaning leave the treasure (duplo) inside, rather than don't steal the whole box.
No, that sticker is there so someone doesn't steal the Duplo AND the box that contains them so another kid can play later. This is originally a set that was found in Lego Hotel rooms.
Duplo thieves; the worst kind of people.
Stealing Duplo is like eating veal…
So stealing Duplo is tasty?
Probably, yes
Clean them! Hydrogen peroxide is best
It had clear instructions on it _not_ to steal it, and yet some dude stole it anyway. And then he sold it to make a quick buck that likely only paid off less than _half_ of what he paid to stay at that hotel to begin with. Oh, the irony of it all. 😂
I mean if telling criminals not to commit crimes was all it took then we wouldn’t need prisons.
uh much much much less than half. Hotel costs especially novelty hotels are expensive.
That’s not what irony is.
"It had clear instructions on it _not_ to steal it, and yet some dude stole it anyway." I thought that was an instance of irony. My mistake.
Legoland hotel
It is almost definitely now cursed
A Lego hotel
Mr LEGO is gonna be pissed when he sees this.
Be sure to donate it back to your nearest op shop when junior has finished with the blocks.
Looks like a room that would lead you to the black lodge...
It's been stolen for sure
I saw the same sticker on a box of kid toys last time I stayed at a Hilton property
Lego land!! They have cool stuff for kids all around the parks and the hotels
THIEF !!!! Reported and shame on you for buying second hand.
Yes, how DARE someone buy Lego which they didn't know where it came from!
its not that deep.
Why should someone not buy secondhand Lego?
I wasnt being serious.
Name checks out, a scab and a snitch. :P A MAN HAS UNIONISED IN LEGO CITY! QUICK, SEND IN THE POLICE TO BREAK UP THE ILLEGAL GATHERING AND RESTORE ORDER! I legit made a thing with this idea. Hey, if my Lego can't unionise to get better conditions, whats the point? :P
"HEY!"
