This makes me sad. This very planting is where many of my Opuntia have originated, as well as many that I've given to friends. Our deal has always been that if it fell to the ground (via a careless passer-by or cold weather) I was welcome to pick it up. That's all I've ever done. Seems someone else may have been doing more.
Ugh. That's just rude.

I sense a theme emerging from the last two posts. Any wine left in the pantry?
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, I hadn't even thought about it but you're right! Ugh.
DeletePeople can be jerks.
ReplyDeleteTrue dat.
DeleteUgh. People can really suck. It's just amazing. Everyone expects to be treated with consideration and respect, but so many don't do the same for others. "Do unto others...oh but that rule only applies to how other people should treat me."

DeleteJerks.
ReplyDeleteNot neighborly! :(
ReplyDeleteOh, that's rotten. I'm so sorry. Argh!
ReplyDeleteWhen did a sense of entitlement become so pervasive?
ReplyDeleteRight? That's it exactly.
