Not really a "stupid criminal" more of a "gentleman robber" actually...
I went out at like 2 in the morning to buy cigarettes, tried a few shops but they were all closed. While walking home in sorrow I was accosted by a young man with a knife, who asked quite politely for for all my money... I was a very poor backpacker at the time and the $50 in my pocket was pretty much the last of my money for the month. I showed the guy my empty wallet hoping he would leave it at that but he noticed my bus-pass and decided to take that instead. He then handed me 2 cigarettes and apologised for the "inconvenience" and walked away.
In a state of semi-shock i realised that without my bus-pass i had no way of getting the 5am bus to work and expressed my frustration out loud. The guy came back and asked me what was wrong, after I explained he handed me back my bus-pass and said "we've all got to make a living somehow".
