>examine
You examine your surroundings. On your chair rests a zune player, presumably from the previous class. To the north is your professor and several rows of chairs filled with students. To your north east, the exit awaits. To your east and west are more chairs, also filled. To the south, there is an alternate exit up a flight of stairs, this is not the way you came.
>pick up the zune
Sorry, I don't understand.
>take zune
You pick up the zune with your grubby hands in nervous excitement. You cannot believe someone would leave such a device unattended! You are suddenly overcome with a feeling of guilt for taking the item.
>relief guilt.
Sorry, I don't understand.
> get rid of guilt
Overcome by your guilt, you consider ways to find the original owner.
> ask students
You ask your classmates if the ITEM is theirs or if they know who it belonged to. No one does. It strikes you that the owner was likely from the previous class, and you have approached students needlessly. -5 rep.
> hint
You see that the professor has finished organising his notes and is waiting for the last few students to arrive.
> himt
Sorry, I don't understand.
> hint
The professor seems rather approachable and may have access to who booked the room last.
> hint
Sorry, you've used up all your hints.
> inventory zune
You put the zune into your bag. You may not be able to use such a complicated device without the proper training.
> ask students

Best way to give it back to it's real owner would be to make a poster saying they can have it if they identify 10 artists who are on the zune, then you'll know it really belongs to them.

hey dogg, keep that shit you're not doing anything wrong. I've lost an iPod recently and you know what? It's my dumb ass who left it somewhere, I don't expect anyone who finds it to go out of their way to find me to return it. I've written it off and learned a lesson, so good for whoever found it I bet that made their day.


I'd probably give it to the professor who taught the previous class or lost&found through campus security but who cares, you robin hooded that shit and your roommate is happy so sleep soundly

thanks for the input man, half the people on here hating on me have mommy and daddy to buy them whatever they want, and the other half are just full of shit and would totally keep it. the difference between stealing here is that i did try to give it back. if it was one of my classmates they would have it now. my FIRST instinct was to see who it belonged to. Also if someone does come looking for it, i'm going to give it back to them. im not a fucking cat burglar.

This.
i dunno about where you live but at least in finland there's a law that you must report found goods to police or take them to a lost and found office if the value is over 20 euros. i'm sure your country has a similar law but you are just being dumb about this.

and you gave it to your roommate, wow. is that supposed to make you feel like a good person now??

and dude stop trying to justify your actions by comparing yourself to other people and what they might have done, it just makes you look stupid. some would do the right thing and some others wouldn't, that shouldn't and doesn't have anything to do with what you should do. and fun fact: dietcoke was being sarcastic.

christ you're fucking disconnected from reality. you know there are a lot of people in this life that actually do try treating others in a manner consistent with how they would like to be treated. i guess by doing this then you have no problem with people stealing your shit if you aren't there at JUST THAT MOMENT to claim it.

bullshit. a decent person would have just left it there for when the person would come back for it, which they most likely would have done if it was worth stealing to begin with. or maybe you could have left it for the professor to figure out what to do with it. this isn't some situation where you found something in the middle of nowhere, where the person definitely isn't coming back for it. it's a classroom, and the owner is overwhelmingly likely to be coming back.

if getting the device back into the hands of the owner was your priority you WOULD NOT have taken it. it's pretty disgusting that you can pretend otherwise.

what? you already took it and gave it away. you didn't care if the person was coming back later that day or the next day for it, and simply decided it was yours because the person wasn't there at just that moment. that it wasn't premeditated doesn't make a whole lot of difference, as the outcome is the same.

just take it to lost&found and put it out of your mind. Give them your phone number and who knows you might get a call back in a month :welp: have a beer, kick back with the dudes and put on some vinyl and just chill out with that warm sound

but if he just left it there on the seats, reality is some thoughtless asshole would've just taken it instead of handing it in or leaving it since it wasn't theirs. so he took it.

true fact: i don't touch anything that doesn't belong to me, push that shit on to the floor and kick it under the desk.... who knows if this fool isn't one of those motherfuckers who just waltz out the bathroom without washing their hands after they piss

i carry several ounces of C4 plastic explosive on me at all times. whenever i find something that does not belong to me i rig it to explode when touched.

nobody just leaves a sweater or a pack of cigarettes just lying innocently around. all things are placed for a reason, and as a red-blooded american it's my duty to remain safe amidst these underhanded schemes.
