    for the same reason i have a privacy lock on my hello kitty diary. it wont keep out anyone determined, but might prevent a crime of convenience. its harder to escape via rescaling that wall with a bag of heavy loot than it is from a house where you're just going to go out the same window you broke in through, and no further obstructions.

    youre better than the argument you wrote runaway, dont be lazy
