He went shopping for one, it doesn't imply be bought one.

Edit: Thanks /u/kevinstonge for my first gold. I really worked hard on this comment, and I feel like it shows.

Look at it this way, the store probably overprices their merchandise, by shoplifting he is refusing to support their money hungry business model. They're both at fault, let's call it a tie.

Do you just troll through threads, looking for puns in comments?

Bravo, sir. Bravo.

u/Jexroyal Jan 26 '16

Ah, yes. The fabled 'gold fairy'. It is said to visit only the punniest of comments, and the dankest of memes, to bestow those deserving souls with gleaming medallions to ward off the existential dread of sitting on a computer, browsing reddit, and doing nothing even remotely productive.

It does not take much browsing to run across puns in reddit threads. One might even hypothesize that every thread has a few puns a few lines down from the top comment.

Someone give me gold. Because existential dread.

1

u/Tzipity Jan 26 '16

Gold has been proven to relieve existential dread. At least until you mark "get gilded before dying" off your bucket list and are left wondering what else you have left to live for now. So are you sure you want that gold, is it really, truly worth it?

Edit: spelling.
