Yes. In the states it is called conversion - a civil claim - but wrongfully withholding and exerting control over the property of another.

Re phrase. It wasn’t accidental. They did it on purpose. They knowingly took the car. And they knew or should have known they did not have claim to the car. That’s willful intent. Grand theft auto.

If I take a car that doesn’t belong to me but I TOTALLY meant to bring it back it’s still grand theft auto.

I’m not a lawyer either, but if I just screw up and get in a random ‘06 STI and drive off I won’t get charged with auto theft?

Except Canadian banks own most of the bricks and mortar banks in America that you put your actual money in. Now you kinda worried about their clerical errors and practices?

Where did I say otherwise? I was saying this isn’t grand theft - it’s probably nothing more than a clerical error. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills here.

Yeah ok, you caught them. The RBC is actually an elaborate cover for a small time car theft operation focusing on 12 year old crap cans.

Seriously? You know what I meant. Intent to steal. I’m not a fan of banks in general but it makes very little sense for a bank as large as RBC to intentionally steal some random dude’s 12-year-old car. It was likely just a clerical error, people. Move on.

If RBC made a mistake I’d call it grand theft auto.

“Sure Mr. Kendall, I can help you with that. Just let me look up your account...”

That’s a hot take! Not quite as hot as Florida, but you know still pretty hot.

I know nothing about the art world but Wim Delvoye was amazing as the Green Goblin.

I really want to hear Fancy Kristen’s take on this. “Driving in snow? Darling, just have your private jet fly you to the North Island in Seychelles or one of your winter homes in either St. Barts or the British Virgin Islands (I don’t know why they call it that, I’ve always had a fabulous time there).”

The IDx concept, as much as I love it, is categorically NOT cooler than the Boomerang. Of course, coolness is a very subjective thing so there are no wrong opinions...but here’s why you’re wrong anyway...

“Take a look at this Lada. It’s worthless - ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the dirt for one year, it becomes priceless on Youtube!”

I already have a Wrenchelper that I borrow tools from. It’s called my next door neighbor, Gary. YOU’LL GET YOUR TOOLS BACK WHEN I’M DONE, GARY!

They could set a reminder on their smartphone, assuming they remembered to plug it in last night. In which case a simple solution is to write a post-it note on their fridge so they remember to plug in their phone at night. And if they don’t see that note because they didn’t walk into the kitchen that evening, they…

Hi, Mrs. Leveedog.

JK - death wobble
JL - hold my beer

I don’t see what’s so complicated about it. It’s just a series of tubes.
