They were considerate enough to put on their hazard lights though.

Very glad to see it came pre-Yakety Saxed, very glad indeed. Good work there … but not sure I agree with this new-fangled, modern ‘scratchy’ remix. Give me the unadulterated original Yakety Sax, any day.

Would the TV even fit in the car?

that’s what i was going to say. Too bad they failed so early, it would have been fun to watch them try to get that in there.

Here’s what a 43" (still in the box) ooks like in a Mini Cooper.
There’s no way a 75" TV would fit in an econobox.

Nonsense! If they’d finished folding the tv in half it would’ve fit just fine!

I guess 2019 is the year of the folding device. More than once, while moving, I wished I had folding TVs.

Here I sit, watching on a screen likely built by wage slaves toiling away in horrible factory conditions, a video of idiots attempting to steal a piece of equipment that was likely built off the backs of severely underpaid and maltreated factory workers, all while listening to goofy yakety sax that would seem to persuade me to think the subject thieves are the tools.
Just an observation, ya’ll.
What I want to know is, where’s the Third Stooge?

It’s weird to see people go through such an effort to steal something that’s been so thoroughly commodified and de-valued. Remember when TVs were expensive as hell?
Wait, maybe these are time-travelers from the past that the other BB article was speculating about who were amazed at the existence of a 75" TV and didn’t realize they only cost a few hundred bucks now.

I bet the set would have come right off the wall if they had pulled upward rather than outward. But it’s way more fun to see them spin it, presumably a habit left over from their former employment as sign spinners.
